Gen manual wind crown on standard rep case. What size is the Jimmy Fu tube?

Does anyone know what size case tube I need to put a Gen Crown on a rep case? Thanks!

At the request of many the AR has been removed!

I bought just a case from DSN once. Was not thrilled with the quality. Crappy CG and crappy crown. IIRC, other crown guards did not easily match up either.

Just got done building it yesterday. I am pleased how it turned out, but yes I need to remove the crappy AR.

Anyone like?

The Players: 002D (Needs lume!)---010D with Gen Dial / Hands Swiss 6497---028A with Swiss Soprod 9040---113E with Gen Dial---231 EL Swiss 6497---253 Swiss 7750

I picked up a 28a on the forum the other day, and I was told I must contact sssurfer to get a cyclops. His PM box seems to be full. Does anyone else have any contact info on him? Thank you.

Credit to Bollobandit on this pic. If you want me to remove it, let me know.

Awesome work! I want one!

Do you have any more information on the sandwich crystal or which models may use it? Perhaps I need to wait until one comes up for sale (probably not too likely )

I'd like to know as well.

Thank you for the info. Sounds like I am in for quite a journey. Do you know how much deeper the 028 case is? Thanks!

I just purchased an 027A dial from dluddy. Now the project begins! I think I know where I can source a Soprod 9040 movement for around $500 Would a case for a Swiss 063 work? Would I be able to use the movement ring? I'll also need to source a set of hands. Does anyone know of a set out there? A proper case back would also be ideal, but clearly down the road. What are the other gotchas from this project. Thanks for any input.

That actually doesn't look too bad. I may give it a try.

I have a Gen white Super Avenger dial. My V2 rep should be here tomorrow. How difficult is the swap? I have the proper tools. I have built / modded a couple of dozen Panerai at this point, but nothing with a Chronograph. The results have been good. Should I attempt to tackle this myself?

Glad to hear it, I didn't want to cause you any undue stress. Most of us (except those asking for their money back apparently) really do appreciate all your efforts.

I believe I am the reason for this posting. Let me state first and foremost, I NEVER asked for any money back on my T Crowns (Approx 10 purchased) I simply wrote to T and asked him what the procedure for upgrading the Crowns was, simply after reading this thread. http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=81452 I will quote: "all delivered crowns can be refunded with the new crowns... you have to pay the additional 10euro and can get the new crowns as refund" I assumed after reading this, there was a procedure for an upgrade and all I did was ask what it was. I wanted to clear the air even though I wasn't specifically called out. P.S. I did have Supporter status before my Paypal account got screwed up. I am still working with the admin to get that rectified.

I agree. Keep the T-Crowns! Thanks again T. I'll be placing an order for more crowns shortly!

My updated 111H TV Model. (Tourby's Crown and V's Crown Guard) Sorry for the crappy photo.

I know for a fact that the crown isn't a 1.2mm, it is smaller, so I am taking a chance and getting the .9mm for my 192.

Seems fair, especially on the lower end of the range... Have pity on us poor Americans with our crappy dollar. As soon as you let us know ordering instructions I will be in for 5 or so. Thank you again T!

Nice work T! What is the target price again? And of course we all want to know When?! When?!

The Dial came from a local watch guy. Not sure of the origin, but he said he had a few more. I probably paid too much for it that being said.
