Yes

Is he legit?

I've brought gen endlinks off of him, all good buy with confidence ...

It's a bit hard to see, since I don't want to open the package, but I don't see any 1's without tails on the gen.

However I also have a BCE with a rep DW in it, I just flipped through all of the dates, and it looks like the 1s all have tails on the rep as well. The "flag" part of the 1 isn't as pronounced on the rep, but I think TA's is a gen.

Yes i agree... Is this for a 7750 ? Pls PM me i may take it for the right price ...

Cheers

P.

Where did you find this?

g-comex from hong kong , no ...?

Its a gen Breitling.

ETA's don't have the tails on all the 1's.

Sneed, can you check your gen against this and confirm ...

Interesting topic as i am building a 1675 from a Josh 1655. I was originally going to use an older Josh 1655 case which has gen construction and great crown guards but it would not fit a gen crystal (rehaut ring too small) which was workable but then it didn't fit a gen dial (too big) so scrapped the idea.

However using the newer Josh 1655 bezel and a 1680 sub 127 crystal it works, no glue required. here some pics:

Crystal sits a bit high coz its a 127 and can't trim or seconds hand won't clear it but its not too bad. i drilled the lugholes.

The crown sits a bit low too...

As you can see the crown guards (needed some work) are awesome, just a shame the case is the wrong dimensions for a 1675. The rehaut opening is 26mm so i plan to use an NDT 1655 dial which is 27.3mm which In my estimation means the markers will be right up against the rehaut as per gen but we shall see. It could be too big.

I got this case a few years ago and it sat in my parts bin for ages, has anyone else seen one like this?

Cheers

Hi Stilty, great work on the movement holders as always ...

Do you have a holder for a ETA2846 into a 1500 datejust case (1570) or its useable equivalent

Cheers

Check the hand size for A21j but these are the most accurate

Cheers

P.

Movements are all 1570 so yes all the same ... date or no date makes no difference, cost effectiveness was present even in the 70"s would you believe ...

Cheers

P.

Does this look gen to you? Thanks!

i brought a 127 off of this guy but pretty sure its not gen so wouldn't risk it ...

Cheers

P.

Nice find, i have a 702 crown you can have PM me your details.

Cheers

P.

looks too big for a Daytona, unless he had real small wrists ...

Does a gen b25-285 fit the rep ssd v2 case? I got a Jackjo and that huge LEC is bugging me

Hello mate, no a gen crystal will not fit an SSD case.

Cheers

P.

so where does one go about finding the correct DW if he sought to replace the bad one on his Seawolf ?

These are very close to Breitling specs

Rehaut is a bit wokky ...

Cheers

P.

Here's my Yuki cased 1680, no problems, trimmed the CG's thats all ...

P.

Thanks By-Tor ... fyi i brought a dial from these guys and although there service was really good the dial wasn't packed properly and it got squashed in transit and the pins pushed through cracking the dial paint.So if you buy please tell them to pack it well ...

Cheers

P.

i have one, pm if you still need ...

P.

can you send a link of the ebay seller please ...

P.

Thats a beauty congrats. I'm wearing my yellow rep and you made me realise how good the rep really is. Would love a gen bracelet for mine, wish the factories would make one too ...

A holder for any 2836 or 2824 will fit

Thanks Andy but i have two of these holders but neither fit. Seems 2893-2 is a larger diameter. I'll check again.

Cheers

P.

Anyone know where i can source a movement holder for a 2893-2. Using it in a cartel Rollie case ...

Cheers

P.

Its from Josh but at least a couple of years ago i think. Its been sitting in my parts bin so decided to use it in my 1675 project. A gen 116 crystal is a bit loose on this case and will have to be glued down, is this a problem on the 3838448 case?

Cheers

P.

Thanks guys,

seems my case is different. It just says 1655 on one side and stainless steel on the other. Same constuction and will fit a 27mm dial.

Cheers

P.

C'mon all u guys who have made 1675's out of Josh's 1665 can you please have a look for me.

Cheers
