  1. Hi is a excellent guy. But, I am not sure all are genuine crystal. #39 is not super domme. #127 is excellent. #21 recommended.
  2. I got most of the parts for this project, but I am still missing the hands to fit the caliper 3133. Do anybody know the hand sizes of a Poljot 3133 ? Do hands for a lemania copy fit this model ? Been this 3133 a modification of the 7734, do the hands for a 7734 of VJ2 will do the job for me. Thanks for your help
  3. I have 6 comming for next weekend, I will let you know.
  4. Do you have a sample of the dials ? 75-35 u$ for a nice dial. Also, show us your work ? let take some pictures of your projects .. Great to see people learning and doing ...
  5. Fully aggre with Nanuq I have try to make and test my DW water proof, and only made about 0.1 atm (1.3 meter ) during water test, a tiny bubble started to form next to upper pusher. This make my watch water proof, but no water resistant P
  6. Do anybody know a US source for Triplock tubes (Clockspares is Uk), please PM me ? I tryed Helfands, way too short. they can be secure more adding glue, but no my choise.
  7. Got one WM 1665 White (from @Robert) And a gen superdome T39 (big money for this), and gen insert. The gen T39 superdome don't fit the WM watch as easy is ebay t39 (no superdome) After worrking the crystal, it fitted perfect profile details with bezel from a different angle front new insert All done Thanks for looking :cheers:
  8. excellent, please enjoy them
  9. nice work
  10. @The Zigmeisterzumba Very nice of you. Could you help us with a tutorial about stem and crown replacement ? It will be very much appreciated for all.
  11. VEry nice
  12. Got it two months ago (60us). Added new crystal, new seconds hand, superluminova markers, and the best 15um 24k gold plated. (Also new band ) I learned how to gold plated by electro deposition because of my work, never did a large piece before, only micro-electrodes, but now I have my own home made gold plating system. :bash: Thanks for any comments, P
  13. This material (PICS) is an outstanding reference. I had saved all the pics. Could you use a finer grid for the pics? (to quantify distortion by the crystal) Outstanding !!
  14. Where did you get it ? I saw a similar package on ebay two weeks ago.
  15. @ jsph Yes I drilled out lug holes, also the edge was to sharp, i moded to be smooth. “bezel came from a 5517" from abay, the metal bezel has the right shape an side profile. relume hands is way too difficult for me, I may try as I practice more. Dials are much easier. BTW: originally in andrew's 5512 no original parts fit. it needed hard work to get the right base for the crystal. @Nanuq "how much to build another??", this is only a project, if I decide to let watch go i will let you know first. I like your stile and your appreciation for vintages. Thanks again
  16. Wow, love the looks of those. Do you thing this 39 crystal is very off from the superdome, I got it from ebay, It was german made no genuine.
  17. Thanks, A better pic :cheers: Case asian 5512 from andrew, crystal tropic 39 from ebay, mods done by me following pic from the book. Relume was only a little C1, original vintage dial was very yellow and lume make it less. the bezel was from a 5517, and the insert from ebay. the genuine springbars came from my genuine dealer, a gift. they were from a watch yhe store worked on last week. oH, forgot, mov eta slow non quick set date or something from a titoni old watch, hour and min hands strait from original watch, seconds moded to fit. Thanks again for the comments P
  18. thanks for looking Tropic 39 springbars, pearl, insert Relume :cheers: I need to work on my pictures they are ugly , watch is nice
  19. "incredible" is been cheap . TTK said "really really good at re-luming.......( seriously good )......"
  20. open the watch a press the hands. be careful and take your time. It is not that hard. Or, find a nice local watchmaker to do it for you (15 Us, at the max, and you will have in one hour)
  21. I agree with you 100%. But, I think "Other LUME job" was my last attempt to relum. Very nice work.
  22. better pics will help, look real common
