SO, it's finally time for a new crazy gen spec-build.
After a Daytona w/ gen 4130, 16610 w/ all gen parts except for midcase, now we're going the way of the ceramics.
Items will be as follows;
------------------------------
Noob v7 116600 SA3135 408 USD [ordered]
Genuine 3135 (brand new) 2400 EUR.
Hands NOS 175 USD [ordered]
Dial NOS 650 USD [ordered]
Ceramic insert NOS 650 USD [ordered]
Gen 704-crown 100 USD
+ full tear-down of the 3135, and assembly, and water testing: 450 EUR w/ Mikael @ www.urdelar.se
Keeping rep: Midcase, bezel assembly, crystal, tube, caseback, bracelet.
------------------------
Preliminary cost: 4300 USD
It's definitely way better than the 12500 USD I paid for my gen (which I sold a couple of weeks later).
4300/12500 = 34,4% Franken cost.
