Franken 217...


Recommended Posts

OEM dial and hands, the Zigmeister Incabloc notch mod... everything else Noob. That's all for now. I'm guessing the CG lever tip shape and proximity to case will be addressed or possibly just get replaced.

Noob xtal is pretty close to OEM spec regarding distortion (varies quite a bit between early and later gen 217's).

Disclosure, not mine at the moment, but get to take it for a test-ride for a couple of days :)

Some quick phone pics after it's arrival this morning...

The Zigmeister did an awesome job on the "Incabloc"...

Very nice project. Why does the 217 crystal look better than the 127. I assume they are the same crystal but the number distortion is much more credible on this watch. Perhaps it is just the angle of the photograph.

Luck of the draw with Noob crystals. This is definitely one of the best I've seen so far.
