And then I will ask Finepics for a nice Plexi Crystal as soon as I get my 3646 back from him. Please Mark I am missing it badly! M.

Some pics of the first step for my vintage 6152 Pam - CG mod. Now I have the case ready for davidsen MM dial and hands over one of mine Cal. 616 Cortebérts. Second step will be a GPF Mod. Dep. buckle mod. M.

Congrats C_J... Beautiful pieces! You have PM. M.

Holy Moses! and this one is a 15 jewel mvmt "like" ours: http://uploads.forumfree.net/post-273238-1148397127.jpg Cheers, M.

Hi guys, Can someone tell me the diameter of those mvmts? I was not aware that they could be sourced on desk clocks and I have seen some of those recently for sale .... M.

LA for sure.

In a place where the fleas are better and the markets are worse...

Flea Market. Cheers, M.

... and keeping good time so far. M.

and these are some pics of the newly arrived buckle for my distressed Watchinger strap... Anxiously waiting for the modded 3646 to come back! M.

Comparation shots. Maybe these two photos can show the subtle differences on the finishing of the bridges. Maybe the one on the right will look for a new owner soon... My first one is now being oiled and cleaned. M.

These are the new aquisitions. Picked them up today... Curiously the guy who sold me these works with these movements since the 50's and have never seen a cal. 618! Mark, yours is the one on the lower picture. Cheers, M.

You better check that you have 2 available!!!! M.

Looks just great!! You shouldn't thank me, M.. You should thank God (and I am agnostic!!!) for the skills he gave you... BTW all your work looks amazing and your philantropic nature and sharing enlights us all. Cheers, M.

Hi Mark, Here they go. Hope it helps... almost 40´s and 50´s dials. The font on almost cases looks like SuperFrench (and slightly fatter than the one shown on Sherrington pics). Cheers, M.

Hi there, Since I dont understand dutch language I thought my photos were being used on a scam and maybe for that I acted a little jumpy over it... Sorry Dutch. You can use my photos as you like and I wish you luck on finding your cal. 616. and thanks for your PM. M.

I am relieved then. But maybe it would be nice for the fellow to ask permission to use the fotos (They have my thumb on it!). I would do so... Cheers, M.

Hi Guys, I was browsing for Cal. 616 on google and some reference conducted me to the marktplaatz.nl. Just take a look at this link: http://www.marktplaats.nl/index.php?url=ht...A%253Bosi%253A2 Someone is using my photos (see my post under Cortébert cal.616) to sell something and since I can´t understand dutch I am not able to read the contents of the auction. One thing is for sure, I am [censored] with this seller for using images he doesn´t own and probably he´s going to scam someone with them!!! M.

Cal. 616 and cal.618. The diameter of these mvmts is 34mm. M.

Will anyone come to Portugal this summer? M.

Unfortunatelly no... but there are a bunch of people here I´d like to meet. However I had a bad experience with a fellow from old RWG (Movingshadow) last summer. When he knew I was going to Las Vegas on vacation he gave me his cell phone number and asked me to call him as soon as I arrived. I called some time after I arrived there and we agreed to meet for some beers... In the end he didn´t appear and let me (and my wife) hanging for 1 and 1/2 hour waiting for him on the lobby of the hotel. I tried to call later but no reply. No explanations after that also... Hope he´s Ok with that... M.

Mark, Its now flying! M.

Here it goes my friend. Cheers, Marco
