A couple of months ago i got Raymond's(rckh) V1 3789 and since then i have been sourcing all the necessary parts
in order to built a nice franken as close as possible to the real thing.As you all know the 3789 is one of the
best out of the box replicated watches but for geeks like us this is simply not enough
So today i recieved the most important part of my franken project which is of course ....a gen engine
This movement is a must for a perfect franken IWC and i wish to thank Niklas(concepta) for being able to find one for me
and deliver it in such a short time,you rock my friend
Aside this i have got a V2 dial and a V2 Ti crown from PT (one of the best dealers i have ever dealt with,he has been able
to provide me with every part i had ever asked him to,i definately trust him blindfoldly)
Last piece of this project is a V2 case,i wouldn't replace my V1 case but i had an accident the watch slipped of my hands,fell on
the floor and...one of the lugs has been broken where the srping bar hole is (well i guess this was a nice test for me to check whether the case was made out of reall ceramic material and not PVD!!! )So i needed to order a new case
from PT,which i did and now i am waiting for the case to arrive.Good thing is that the new case comes with a new AR'd crystal and better
looking Ti chrono pushers,i guess something good has come out of this accident
So on to the photos now
The engine
The rest of the parts
To be continued....
