I'm looking for a CAD modeler (CONUS only) to hire for a custom endlink project.
Tasks would include: measuring the lug area of a midcase and modeling endlinks to fit (with a supplied bracelet). Shoot me a pm if you (or anyone you know) can do this
Can you really do this?? I hope they'd need more than just some banking info to reset your password. Also, you'd be sent an email notification, so you'd know if anyone was trying to 'hax' into your account.
Right? haha.
It's going to be done. Just need to figure out how. Plan on restoring the paint missing on the backside of the insert, along with mending bits of the bakelite.
Now of course I'm wondering if it might be a little cheaper to modify an existing pair of endlinks. Finding a pair that are too large and whittling them down would probably be easier.
Just so you have a visual, check out the photo below. You can see the huge gap between the watch head and end link, as the fifty fathoms have pretty long lugs. I would want the endlink flush against the watchhead naturally.
I don't have a design, just have the "look" I'm going for.
I'm using an omega folded link braclet, so will be making a stretched-out/wider version of these end links:

Any info would be greatly appreciated
Hey all,
Looking to add some custom fabricated endlinks to my most recent aquisition: any idea of where this can be done? I've googled a bunch, but have found nothing solid yet.. (Preferably in CONUS).
My vote goes for Kime's 6200 Silix Build. He performed some pretty difficult 'surgery' on that piece. If you know what a stock silix big crown case looks like, you'll agree that this build is a masterpiece.
Phong has good cases (that will still need modding), but that's about it!
I'd suggest getting Michael Young 1680 hands if you're going to go aftermarket.
It's tough to find an accurate gen-feet placement red dial. To me they just don't exist.
I believe Misiekped has a 1570 date disc for sale in the parts section that is appropriate for your build
I honestly thought this was Nanuq's piece at first. Then I spotted the insert, and wondered why he swapped his - that's when I scrolled over to his username and realized it was you! Great build
Here's my 1665 with a SRSD Whoop Dial
Just so you know, my earlier post was in jest. I would NOT reccomend getting that dial. Printing quality is [censored] poor.
