polexpete Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Hiya all, well at last i can share my 6265 Daytona with you. I originally brought this as a kit in 2008 off of a member here who turned out to be a little scammer so i should be glad i received it, he later ripped me off for a Tudor case but that's another story... Turned out it needed alot of work which was beyond my capabilities so it spent the best part of a year with Micheal at Classicwatchparts in Hong Kong who did an awesome job putting it together and finding missing parts of the V72 for an amazingly cheap price. Specs are: - Phong case and back unengraved. (will have engraved sometime) - Phong bezel - Gen Jaeger-LeCoultre V72 fully serviced with 5 line Rolex bridge - Gen T21 crystal - Gen 78350 bracelet with 557 (not correct) endlinks - Gen 702 Crown and tube - Gen pushers - Phong dial and handset Pics... (Ubi style, thanks mate...) Thanks for looking! P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Wow! Beautiful job Pete, congrats! Those movement pics are particularly cool. Wear it in good health. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiesn089 Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Looks amazing, the V72, too, is a true beauty! Wear it well! My MM DW 6263 will be on it's way to Domi shortly to fix everything which was wrong with it on arrival (a lot) plus a few upgrades. Only waiting for two cousins pushers which should arrive in the next few days, can't wait and your Daytona isn't helping! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gplracer Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Outstanding! I love my 7750 DW version but would love a V72 if I could find one for really good price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lhooq Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Jeez... a JLC Valjoux 72! That's not your usual Zodiac- or Clebar-sourced movement! Just beautiful. It's great to see persistence paying off in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiG Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 I'm not sure that your case is a Phong, see this one got by Ubi: the bezel font is quite different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the bezel the one I gave to Tribal last year or two years ago? flex Hi Flex, I received all the parts in Oct 2008 from a member based in Miami, USA but guess its possible in this game. I dunno how accurate it is, not too worried... Yes Micheal has blank bridges engraved and his watchmaker installed it on the V72. The original bridge had JLC engravings... Cheers P.
