Thanks

Thanks Ken, i'll drop a line to him right away.

On a similar note, does anyone have a lead on a set of hands for a Yema / LeJour 17j automatic movement? I need to replace the minutes hand on my Superman 990.

Anyone?

Hope someone here will give you some help.

Yep..........it's where I TRIED to start but he doesn't reply. Ignoring members is bad form. Ignoring a mod is suicide!

ryaku,

you can paint them, i have paint hands white/black and red with my mods.

if you are going to paint them, make sure you secure the hands and tape out the lum parts so you can have a easier time.

You may also want to try Tourbillon1801 as well. He may be able to source these hands...

You're right, if i'm not mistaken months ago he had a project regarding a Iwc watch with spare genuine parts.

Let's have a try.

Thanks
