projectologist Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Part one's OP included the first pic below of the harvested JF case, FGD dial and gen pre-J cg. I was contemplating parking an E-series movement in it until I decided if another franken fiddy was going to happen or call it a day with a solid case back and a Swiss 6497-1 from Ofrei. I went ahead and ordered the 6497-1, but in the meantime a PAM 111e appeared ready for parting out... My friend got a smokin' deal on it, and I ended up with the case back, movement, dial and hands. So what's left to acquire... Gen bezel and gasket (on the way) Gen crown tube w/ o-rings (on the way) as the previous owner had removed it from the JF case before I acquired it (see pic attached) Crown and stem (T48 and 1.2mm stem on the way) Crystal (still looking) Gen lug/strap screws (on the way as most AD's have these in stock) I'll have a nice daily wearer for waaay less (thanks to a couple of great franken buddies) than the cost of a used gen PAM 111e with an incorrect, but my favorite, style cg. It's nice how everything fits and readily screws into the JF cases. Worth the search if you can hunt one down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormTooper4 Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Dude you really have some sweet bits and bobs there, that E movement is awesome. Looks like you're having fun with that lot. ST4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Americano Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 I wonder what finally got the old movement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
