Thanks bk9111, freddy and Cats for your input.
Now maybe a more accurate question: In terms of the more minor parts such as crystal retaining ring, gaskets, friction washer, etc; would I be able to use these parts from the rep case?
Greetings RWG,
I am in the "hunting and gathering" stage of my first franken project for 2010; I have a good start.
My request is for the forum sages to look at my parts list and tell me what I may have left out.
Gen Parts:
1570/1575 movement
Dial
Hands
Crown
Crown tube
Bezel
Bezel insert
Silver date-wheel
Top-hat cyclops
I will be using a Yuki case; me thinks.
Anything missing?
Thanks
I went a little ballistic:
gen parts/bezel, insert, crystal, crown and tube.
The Zigmeister lume on hands and dial, inner CG edges modified, movement swap to ETA 2836 and TW's best bracelet.
