milsub5517 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 Good evening everyone, So over time i acquired all parts necessary for the 16014 project: gen case with crown and bracelet, gen dial, 2836-2 ETA, ETA hands and date overlay, Stilty movement ring to fit 2836-2 into 16014 case. No i need to put all of this together... i must say i am a bit intimidated. I am not sure who is active on the forum these days, stilty had a surgery last time we spoke and he seems to be gone now. Can anyone recommend someone who could put this together for me for a fee? I am on the east coast and cant wait to finish this off!!!
Dizzy Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 take it to a local watchmaker and ask if they will do the assembly.
stilty Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 Yeah, sorry, wish I could take on the project for you. I have so much going on right now I barely have time to log in just to see what is going on and reply to PM's. And sorry to those that I may or may not have answered to in a timely manner. btw, the laser eye surgery was a huge success... don't know why I waited so long.
lhooq Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 Welcome back, stilty! I got worried after reading the OP.
If you see Kay Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 there are a couple of regular Frankenjusters around. Try JMB, KBH, or Alligoat. I have one underway right now. I can actually put it all together, but just haven't yet. I don't like the seconds hand on mine, and am going to try to source another one.
milsub5517 Posted March 4, 2011 Author Report Posted March 4, 2011 welcome back stilty, i am glad to hear that surgery was a success, you must feel amazing now. Any interesting watch projects in the works? Yeah, sorry, wish I could take on the project for you.

Dizzy Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 If you are in Canada, I can do it for you. I just finished off a couple gen Datejusts with ETA movements so I'll have a little free time until something else comes up. I love building the datejusts. It turns out to be such a perfect watch because its all gen except for the movement and hands. Which dial do you have for it? Send me a PM if you want. cheers dizz
