foucalt Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 My 9411 project turned in to a 9401 project instead, I can't get used to the date "bubble" unfortunately. Got the dial last week and actually managed to strip the movement from a donor watch and assemble the dial and hands (second time I ever do this). Now I have everything except the bezel assembly! Oh and adjusting the stem... The case is stamped 9411 on the inside of the caseback and the movement is a 2783 so if I ever change my mind I could just change the dial. Good luck with your project Catalin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with your project Catalin! Nice. Not a big fan of "yak [censored]" lume so I'd try to darken it up IMO. As for the caseback, later 9401's used a 9411 stamped caseback so you are ok in that regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collin24 Posted August 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 Hi guys, Thought I would share the status of my project after a few months. All parts except the movement and date wheel are from Yuki, the DW is from Ubi (Thanks again mate!)and the donor watch is an old Tourist watch I picked up on ebay. As you can see in the pictures I am stuck on the case. I am open to suggestions, since I find Yuki's case at 450$ and ClassicWatchparts bezel insert at 80$ a bit expensive. Thanks, Catalin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hava Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I have a gen hands and dial. Buy a 2783 movement, but has a problem the hour hands is bigger than pinion hands of the movement. I too try in a 2824 and is bigger the hand hole than pinion. Mine question is the problem is the hand or is the movements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
