Guest avitt Posted April 2, 2010 Report Posted April 2, 2010 ETA based Polaris homage, with a nice, high plastic dome, on a "Squinky" curved-end NOS tropic:
lhooq Posted April 2, 2010 Report Posted April 2, 2010 I'm glad to see these kits are available for ETA movements now. I love a Super Compressor on Tropic!
Guest avitt Posted April 2, 2010 Report Posted April 2, 2010 Hey Andy! There's a guy is France, who picked up the old "Landeron" name, and began producing some vintage style watches. He introduced a nice, super-compressor case, and offered it with Miyota or ETA movements, with various dial styles - However, his prices were too high (currently $600+ for a Miyota, or $750+ for an ETA). In December, I contacted him, to ask if I could either 1) buy a compressor at a lower price, or 2) buy the parts to make my own! He responded that he would put together some kits, which is what he's been offering for a few months now. Here is the link to the kits on his eBay store. The quality of the case is decent, and the bezel is non-clicking.
