finally - today came my Clarks crystal with gasket .... and
success
some lousy pics - hope you like yellow
this is the clarks crystal mounted - not bad - if i had known - i would just kept this :
and here the gen crystal :
so yes - the Euromariner has a gen construction and takes gen parts - lovely
cheers,
Frank
the cheap way = zero $$ :
bleach the insert carefully - remove the pearl
overwork the case with sandpaper - shave the CGs - polish it up
scratch the plexi and polish it with polywatch.
the result is a nice vintage look
cheers,
Frank
the sky is the limit
i would get the parts (canon pin, crown+tube) from Davidsan and have it
installed from a local watchsmith.
the dial reluming is more expensive and you need to find someone with skills for the 001
- its cheaper to get a dial - already with SL from Davidsan too.
cheers,
Frank
nice twins congrats !
thanks for sharing. i really hope you start now with the no dates - there so many variations -
will keep you busy for the next years
seeing the pics and reading the description of the problems i know now who the MM is
but anyway :
what happened to the white ? i came perfect from TTK - did you sent it to an other modder ?
cheers,
Frank
if anybody is interested - i found the gen construction :
looks spot on with the Rep -
i hope my Clarks gasket will work out - it needs to be a little thicker then the rep one i have -
then it should work out.
cheers,
Frank
Doenertown ?? what's that ? Berlin ? Koeln ?
my cyclo looks like that (also not perfect ... )
with gen crystal :
when - i have my clarks gasket and it fits - sure i don't need the rep crystal any more.
but its a nice watch
cheers,
Frank
