Thanks ! I thought about using an ETA 2846.
So here's the to do list:
Phong case
Minhq dial
Aftermarket Brevet Crown.. will do for now
Gilt hands
ETA 2846 .. Although a gen 1530 is tempting...
Gen crystal.. A must have imho
Aged Aftermarket
Aftermarket bezel
Does anyone know the references for the crystal of a 5510 ? I believe it's Tropic 19..
I also got no clue for the braceletband end links so far
Thanks for chiming in here, mate!
I think I know which dial is used now.. 380$ really seems fair to me!
I really think about buying the Phong case for it.. Damn this is going to be another expensive project.
Would an ETA 2846 actually fit into the case by using a movement ring?
I'm also worried about the hands.. Especially if Raffletime's hands would fit the low beat ETA.
I know that all of them got flaws.. I think I'll stick to the Yuki
I got 2 modders in mind which could do the modding because I'm totally incapable.
cc's franken has got a 5510 case and a 6538 dial as far as I know. This seems to be the nicest combination( no offense on someone else's taste). I don't want the best but I want to have a nice looking similar combination.
Well I've imagined the build to be like this:
Yuki case
Yuki/ Phong Gloss dial
A movement adapter for the case
And an ETA 2846 or a similar slow beat ETA
A nice rivet aftermarket bracelet.. Phong?
Hands????????
I'm upset that cc33 has such a nice 5510 and I don't
So I wanna build a nice 5510..
I'd like to know which dial and case I should use.. I don't wanna spend a fortune.
Dial : Yuki / Phong / NDT ?
Case: Yuki / Phong?
I don't want to use a gen movement.. Eta will do
I hope someone can help me
Oh my god!
I think a v72 or v726 would really complete my collection.. Fantastic build ! Thanks for sharing these pics!
100% agree with Akira here.. Beautiful Sigma dial !
