Great thx for the info. So I better start looking for gen ruberclad hands Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Try to get an sh3135 separately from a td that has good connections to jf. Puretime or toro might work Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Awesome thx for the info both of you guys! So with my franken project I rather look for gen hands than but mikey subdial hands should do the job right? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My first build back in the days Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yup that sounds not like Ryan at all! Nevermind, intime is a great TD and certainly stand up guy!

Amazing watch! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Alright so this will eventually end up in m2m since I don't plan on building a sd.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great info! So it is not a flat 4 insert? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Stunning indeed! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for your input mate. So same dimension as 14060..how do you see the difference betweend sd and 14060 insert? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A long way to go Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

got it! Completely forgot about the 14060 which hast inner diameter of 29.7mm. That's the solution Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thought about this as well, but the hole on the back has the perfect size and no glue residuals or similar whatsoever... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You are right it is minimal to the right but almost impossible to see with the naked eye and probably still within gen tolerance. Looking at it very closely and also compared to my other gen 16610 insert the pearl loos perfect (superior lumed than tc's latest insert). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got this insert and it is supposedly from a 5513. What is weird tho, is that it has a glass pearl. Nevertheless, it is smaller than a 16610 insert for instance (see photo). Quality wise I would 100% say it is gen. Very solid (as all my gen inserts), perfect pearl and nice sheen and numbers. Was there ever a 5513 that used an insert with glass cladded pearl? I did my research but couldn't find an answer. Every help is appreciated Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

First do the above! In case you can't fix it yourself: Option 1: bring it to a good watchsmith that works on reps (extremly important) and have it properly serviced and oiled. Should last and hold up very well afterwards Option 2: get a brand new swiss eta, switch dial and hands. Finito and enjoy for a loooong time Good luck Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is TC really out of business? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So guys you gonna order through this link or should I get going another group order? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Get a mikey dw, swiss eta and double ar xtal. Tighten the screws so they are lightly recessed (do not remove the gasket since then they are sitting way too low). That's it and you have a super nice watch! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks no just completed it today. Specs are jf v5 case (much better finish and fc pattern than noob), noob dial, hands and inner tachy (has correct size of the numbers) and noob hands are way better. Currently running on an A2824 but will get a swiss eta and mickey dw. And probably swap in a 2xAR xtal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
