Hi, If I want to modify a 2824 movement to add the H4 cannon pinion as TC 2824 Do I only need to replace the cannon pinion or do I need to change the fourth wheel and hour wheel as well ? Thanks

Found what I needed. Thanks anyway

Hi Guys, Do you know where I could find a panerai replica dial in approx 35mm (for 44mm case). I need a dial compatible with a 6497 movement with small second at 9. I saw these dials here : http://www.hontwatch.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/fffr.jpg but they are sold out. Thanks for your help T.

Thanks guys for the advices. I think I'll take more time to think about the options I have but I guess you're right, I probably underestimated the difficulty and modding the movement is way out of my league... fo the moment. Anyway, I'll post again when moving in one or the other direction Thanks again

I'm ready for the challenge, maybe I'll fail but I'd like to try at least. Buying a complete replica would not be the same for me, I really want to have it my way if I can say so and assemble it myself. And the first thing in this project was to build it around a 2824 caliber with the top grade in order to have a movement that would be COSC compliant but maybe i'm going in the wrong direction... In that case at least I will have learn a lesson

Oh I guess I see what we're talking about, I found some stuff on ofrei's site : http://www.ofrei.com/page1439.html As there is several heights, would you know which one would be ok for my project if using a TC base ?

Thanks guys for your replies. @tomhorn : would you have an example of the "taller pinion", I don't really understand what it is. And thanks for the advice, I'll keep that in mind for the future !

Hi Guys, I'm starting a new project to build my own 16610 rep. I already have a 2824-2 ETA movement in top grade ready for this project but I'm not sure about the other parts. As I got a very nice movement, I want to make myself a very good rep. I spotted parts on Yukiwatch but I'm not convinced : First, the engraving saying 16613 Then case is made for 2836 movement which is thicker than the 2824 so I'm not very sure if the movement will be easy to fix inside the case, looking at the ring, I have my doubts even if yuki is saying it will fit... Anyway, still considering it so could you help me with that ? Are the parts from yuki of good quality ? How could I be sure to fix the 2824-2 inside this case, I can't manage to find a ring for that so if you know some place... Any help/feedback appreciated ! Thanks guys

awesome !

Hi All, I'm 33 from Paris, France. Already one rep in progress, well actually an "hommage" marina militare from Tat with ETA Unitas 6497. Next project is about to start : sub with eta 2824-2 top grade Cheers ! T.
