All of the above

I have no direct experience with aftermarket 1680 cases, but I sort of agree with Ronin. I have found that Yuki's English communication skills are quite satisfactory, so I would just check to be sure you can return his case if it does not fit (my experience with other Yuki parts is that they will accept the part back without any problem as long as you demonstrate why it was defective or incorrect). In any case, unless you are 100% certain that crowns, tubes & crystals are gens, I would factor in the cost of gen replacements no matter which aftermarket seller you buy a case from (why would you expect to receive a gen crown/tube from a seller of aftermarket cases, crowns & tubes).

Looks like a DW dial. Thanks.

I do not think the term 'reasonable' is in Phong's vocabulary. Just hope it is not too excessive & that his engraving skills are better than what I have seen of his watchmaking skills (which leave alot to be desired).

257s are (permanently) attached to a folded link 7835 for either a 1038 Zephyr or 5500 Air King

It just needs to be (properly) serviced. The A7750 is capable of matching the timing accuracy of its Swiss-made counterpart.

A beauty. Did the dial come from our DW or is it from another source? If DW, can you post a good, clear macro of the dial?

Phong provides this service (not sure of the cost) & I recall another RWG member (not sure who) offering something similar several months ago.

As long as it accepts the correct (2mm) springbars.

Ditto. I have a 9315 on mine

I am not bidding either, but I can easily see this thing reaching the 2+ grand level.

Congrads, Andy. Looking forward to the next 10k.

I have no idea whether that will work. My point is that since the graphite works & is cheap, readily available & easy to implement (during a standard overhaul, which all rep movements should have), why opt for a more expensive unknown?

As of today, the original test watch is still running.

Before throwing alot of money into a Rube Goldberg project, you should read this. None of the watches I treated have failed (note - you would need to locate a watchmaker to treat your watch as I am not providing this service).

$250-ish.

Ubi - You really do need to do a good collection pic.

Make sure - you have the correct battery the battery is good the battery is installed correctly

These look ok
