Andei. Was ure dial found in a crashsight out in Colombia ? I thought I read something like that a while back. Looks like the dial.

Yep, that's exactly the one.

and here I was thinking I was happy getting my Yuki 1665 caseback installed! lol

Ok.. I bought a sapphire GMT with Swiss ETA ihs a couple years ago. It's really a bad rep I never wear, but I was thinking since I want to build a 1675, I could use this movement? It runs great and keeps good time. My question is, will the Josh explorer case that many use...accept the Swiss ETA? If so I will order the Josh watch if someone will give me a link?

I can also order the Yuki dial like yours Z, and the fast shipping TX WSO bezel. I have a gen plexi and gen 6mm crown/ tube for this already.. sooo.. I need a link to the exact Josh explorer and a link to the Yuki dial.

This would be my wok stir fry donor This is a flattering pic... the rehaut is really way worse than it looks!

[Guest zeleni kukuruz]

@W...

Your caseback is sexy

Here is the dial that i orderd:

Now i dont know if you can use that eta movement??? This case is 12,5mm so im realy not sure.

Forgot to say that JJ striped the lume from that dial and added his flawor puffy lume.

a little warning - the DG movement is totally completely absolutely shitty - i would op an other moment - but that's just me - a lot of other guys love the movement

[archierocks]

what movement do you recommend how is the josh movement i was going to use one of his explorers as a base how do raffles selection of goods compare anyone used them before

[the_rymeister]

I've just received my base watch off to JJ this week for my build.........exciting stuff... I cannot wait
