Damm the 5513 is stolen in transit to his owner!,[emoji2959] I'm really [censored] off. Al lot of work for nothing.[emoji22] Gesendet von meinem 2107113SG mit Tapatalk

Impressed by the quality.[emoji106] Gesendet von meinem 2107113SG mit Tapatalk

Hello Gang, I want to show my new build. This is a 5513 Sub build for a colleague. First I want to take a 5513 Milk Case, but after inspection I noticed that the gen Tropic 19 is too loose and don't fit properly. I also noticed that the gen Inlay don't snap in. So I decided to take an old Case with gen specification that I found in my drawer. I reshaped the Case, drilled the Lugholes and opened the CG's. Installed a gen Tube and a old Vintage Crown. Dial is a Viet 5513 Gen Inlay I colored the Hands to match the Dial. Oldstyle Springbars where fitted also Movement is slow Beat. Bracelet is not the best but it's marked 93150 Cheers Tribal Gesendet von meinem 2107113SG mit Tapatalk

Amazing read.[emoji106] Gesendet von meinem 2107113SG mit Tapatalk Btw, do u have a Part List for replacing the gen free-sprung balance? Cheers tribal

Oh noooo. Sorry and my apologies that I read this so late.... My condolences to the whole family. I was in deep contact with (Bob) in the years back. Rest in Peace my friend[emoji22] Gesendet von meinem 2107113SG mit Tapatalk

No I think it's about the inside Bezelteeth Quality and the clickwire. Gesendet von meinem 2107113SG mit Tapatalk

I changed the Klickwire. Gesendet von meinem 2107113SG mit Tapatalk Here again. You can see how bad the datewindow is on ARF. This is a custom build. I used a old WM9 Case, installed a gen Crystal, B3 Inlay, Tube and Crown, Dial and Hands are JF, VR3135 with near perfect Date. Bracelet is TC.

Anyway, the ARF is not bad at all, but it needs to swap the shitty 3135 clone to VR, also the Dial has a too small date window., Date needs also to change. Bezel click is shitty too. But with some work you can get a nice Sub. Here a example of the ARF Dial and a better one. Gesendet von meinem 2107113SG mit Tapatalk

Which reference? Maybe you find something here. https://www.strictlyvintagewatches.com/jaeger-lecoultre-reference-11016-memovox-alarm-travel-clock Gesendet von meinem 2107113SG mit Tapatalk

Dial and Crystal is smaller on a No Date, so not a easy swap of parts! Gesendet von meinem 2107113SG mit Tapatalk

Hey Gang, here is my latest build for now. Gen 25-130 Plexy and 593 Endlinks on the way. But to install then gen Tropic 25-130 the Rehaut need to be slimmed a bit. Specs are. Italian Big Block Case reshaped and drilled Lugholes. Installed gen 703 Tube and Crown Gen fat Springbars Gen ETA Valjoux 7750 Italian 78360 Bracelet from RWI. Unfortunately it's not Plug and Play and needs a lot of work on the Case etc.. Sneak Peak Gesendet von meinem Mi MIX 2S mit Tapatalk Gesendet von meinem Mi MIX 2S mit Tapatalk
