mellons Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Here is the latest attempt at a 372- this time from a jackson 47mm case (thanks southy). As you can see not 100% homage as i have left crease slightly above mid-height and lugs are a bit fatter than 372 (i prefer this look). This build borrows from previous experiment at a "slim" 6152/1 case set: Images below are of current fantasy build in progress (am giving my fingers a break!):- dsn slim solid caseback, reshaped jackson 47mm case and an athaya single-piece low-profile bezel. Plexi is a necky solid (temporary mock-up) reduced down to 5mm overall (may go lower). Hope to combine with a 4 liner (with secs) (or a dow cali dial- tbd) to create a "vintage" 372 daily beater. Awaiting lever mod form athaya, slim lower solid plexi from necky.... further down are comparison shots with prevously built mini-fiddy 372 cali build. Apologies in advance for grainy photos.... comparitive shots with mini-fiddy 372 cali (mf lhs, fiddy rhs). difference in height considerable, but mini-fiddy is very comfortable on.

asciwhite Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I like it!! May I ask you what size crystal/plexi goes in the mini fiddy? Do you think a 212i crystal would fit in the case? I am in the process of making my own homage..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellons Posted March 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 for this bezel a 40.8mm so if yo are using crystal it will be this less gasket (not sure dims of your crystal) stock jackson bezel is 2mm deep- this slim one is 1.5mm deep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
