looks amazing! more pic more pics

Here you go

Plane jane hand gun for today.

It is approx. 14mm using my calipers from the caseback to top of the crystal. You can ask other folks like ronin to measure for you as cases vary.

I wanted to buy one and was just curious why it wasn't. in the original packaging. Woof, Did you purchase one of his crystals and if so can you show a pic.

THanks

Has anybody used this 1680 crystal which says on the listing Gen. If so, Has anybody installed it and can you show pics.. I am interested in the date magnification ( I know that sometimes it depends on the crystal height that magnification varies). and why they have so many NOS but no packaging.

Thanks

I also have an MBW 5513 case which has a gen 5513 dial and I'd hate to hack it up. I was thinking of using the MBW case with the yuki 9411 caseback but yuki 9411 caseback will not work on the 5513 (2 different cases even on Gen. I think). I will use the yuki caseback on phong's mid case as they are same spec. per gen. Phong gave me the measurements of his caseback and matched perfectly with yuki's.

Crystal is 125

Insert is CWP with ofrei pearl.

Movement is Gen. Tudor 2784

Phong's mid case is on the way, Yuki mid case is going back for a refund. More money but I guess I'll be happy.

Beautiful watch sly!

May I ask where you got a gen case, and appx what did it set you back?

Search 1601 case on the bay, I got mine from another member here who gave me a very good deal

Clarks T-22 if I'm not mistaken

plain and simple if it was me.

nice job. I wonder if you can actually drill the lugholes hmm.

Those lug holes were drilled to accept 2mm spring bars.

Thanks M, Where can i find those spring bars. Also, I had to get the dremel out to fit the endlinks. Is there a correct endlink that i should use or is it because I have 1601 case.

Thanks

Here's my 1016 finally done, But she's never done until she gets a gen. dial & a 1570. I have a gen dial offer from a well respected member when it comes to 1016 and I have a spare 1570 but other projects are occupying my time and money as of now. As usual forgive my iphone pics.

Thanks M, Off topic. 1016 is done and i will post on a different thread after i fit the endlinks.

Not much, Don't. care about the loss anymore.

or just like high said buy the J&W then swap the guts. Sell the yuki case with J&W parts.

I emailed phong today regarding the case only (No case back, bezel & retainer ring). Price is same as a yuki case with everything on it. I just hope I can transfer the case back to phong's case (if it will fit).

Wow

Something like this, Sorry for the bad pics.

No need as it is really wokky.

Did they ship it already? Check it out first, Maybe they have a different batch. Email them also and ask about the rehaut.

Yup, maybe 2 months ago. This just shows that they are hit and miss. My 1680 from last year was fine.
