Correct GK. The case I was talking about Janine if the earlier ST3035 cases. Has been worked and lugs beveled and the holes enlarged and beveled correctly and crown guards reshaped as well as other gen parts added plus engraved. This with the correct adapter and a nicely serviced 2892 can’t be beat or better a gen 3035 movement. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You can always get the correct 16800 case and use a 2892 movement with the correct adaptor. Then you will have the right profile as well as the correct repair for a 16800. Hate to be a stickler but the TC case will Work for a 16610 not so much a 16800. PM if you are interested in a case. Hope it’s ok to post like this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Why am I holding onto my st3035 16800 engraved case for? Lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Now a 2892 with a custom adapter will fit perfectly and run just as well if not better and save you a few thousand quid. Just a thought. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No. The 3035 is closer in dimensions to a 2892. 3035 movements are also not cloned yet that I know of. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I like the old DW cases specially with the nice crisp sterile dials. I wish I could find one of those for a sterile PN 6239 build with the 7750 movement. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Optimal Way to Connect SATA Drive to IDE Motherboard
Ephry73 replied to freddy333's topic in General Discussion
Sata card in pci would your best bet. The ide adapters will allow you to use the drive but you're limited to ide. Fastest simplest way I can put it. There's always the super expensive and space limiting ide solid state route. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
What I meant was the gen layout needed that part. It goes crystal retainer>bezel washer/spacer>click spring >bezel>insert. I have found that with the TC arrangement guy can do without the spacer. Or thin the spacer out. Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkAnother thing is that if the bezel is not perfectly round it won't rotate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah TC bezels from my experience don't like that gen part installed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice. I miss my old 16800 franken. Good post. Just make sure to add that it is possible to have a 16800 with the SEL bracelet as well. Makes it a lot easier to source a decent bracelet for this build. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Keep on trucking! Love it. Not that you left more DNA in the bay, but because these vehicles were meant to just go. Nowadays without a computer most cars will just be dead. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Who has the best aftermarket chrystal for a 16610 ?

The ST crystal is pretty darn good. For the non AR and non coronet vintage Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Switched to an Audi A4 B6 with 2.7tt conversion for my daily driver. Much better mileage than the four door wrangler and pretty fast. Doesn't look like much which is the sleeper idea I was going for. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had issues with three of those TC movements that required some smithing. Reversing wheels and driving pinions and such. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
