eunomians Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Wait a sec, is anyone offering a plate mod? Or is this thread just a slew of individual projects that have been posted up for our confusion? In all seriousness, I'll reiterate my initial question: who is willing, capable & trustworthy at doing a plate mod? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sander Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 I'm sorry to say but I think this project sucks. (unless I see a finished product!) First of all you need a gen dial to make it work. If not, don't even bother. The date window will not line up and it looks as stupid as a gen dial on a sec @ 12 movement. :thumbdown: Also you will have a problem with the hands. The chrono hands can be modded but the problem is the minute and hour hands. The rep hour hand is 2.00mm and the movement needs 1.20mm The rep minute hand is 1.20mm and the movement needs 0.90mm Good luck I would say. (if you look closely you can see that the hands are not attached) Of course it can be done: http://www.rwgforum....-my-holy-grail/ I also doubt if the chrono works properly because the gap between the pusher and the movement is pretty big. I can hardley not believe that the little brass adaptor will work. If i remember well, the gap is like 5mm. And......still no Cotes de Gen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanytical Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 I don't know. I did it myself Sander, if you ever offered your plate mod as a service, I'm sure you could make some nice weekend money to blow. I'd be first in line if you did. Your RBII that you sold was a real gem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eunomians Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Yes Sander, please consider a custom plate mod. I'm ready to pay you right now with Paypal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
