Not Jimmy CG.

Hi folks!! Please let me know what you think about these watches I built. Nothing new but I tried to use the best parts and movement available... *JimmyFu case, caseback and bezel NO more available from Jimmy...These are collector items :ohmy: *Thick single AR sapphire crystal *ETA H-3 cannon pinion falt top polished *CG lever pin flat top and polished *Movement full serviced We all know swiss ETA movements are not longer available at the price we wanted But I managed to get a few..... vac

Asian 6497 100% closer to gen and reliable

looks great....AR does make a huge difference :ohmy:

Let me know if you find it......sweeping seconds is what I am looking for.

You need the correct hands in order to make it possible. I have seen a few watches with hands glued..............................not a nice view. I am trying to get the correct hands for the 3717 vac

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW!!!!! someone will be VERY happy!!!!

NO way to install "pam ' style bridges on a base Swiss 6497 / 6498 movement without some serious main plate mods Pics added The rep part is not an actual bridge...but you get the idea

Thanks !!!

Lume shot of the dial at right

Cool! NO lume on the subdials white hands...seems obvious but will ask

I have this 3717 dials and would like to know wich is the better one the one at left has the 12 6 9 markers lumed the one at right has all white areas lumed

just pics

Here are some quick pics Gen tube with threads Gen at right

I have done it as well and you can make it fit . vac

That is a vaclumed PVD Vac

The last batch I recieved was terrible threads issues plus chipped "spikes"

You are not alone my friend!! All the crowns I have received are like that vac

Hey that's a BEAUTY

The Cousteau..................................only you my friend !!

Very nice!! I am installing a gen tube and crown on a 45mm as well. vac

I have a couple

Do you want to trade ?

I asked him if the crowns were in stock at the time I paid...he replied YES They Are !! no reply ever since . 16 days without hearing from him.....makes me think. Does anyone have received defectives crowns from Pam ? vac

Once again I decided to post this pictorial because of the lots of emails I receive everyday asking wich is the best movement....here we go............... I took a Davidsen real "swiss" H series and a New asian swanneck H series Dial side "swiss" vs. New asian Look at the decoration and the shock protection system used. The swiss has the Novodiac system (cheaper version) :mad: The asian has the more expensive Incabloc. Both made by the same company. Bridges side "swiss" vs. New asian Both fonts are thinner and better finish overall. "swan neck" regulator assy "swiss" vs. New asian Look at the balance wheel asian is correct also the shock protection is correct. "swiss" ETA stamp NONE on the New asian "swss" is 18000 bph wrong New asian 21600bph correct like gen Here is some info about the shock protection systems My vote goes to the New asian swanneck movement......you decide wich one you want.
