cib0rgman Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 I was under the impression that 1570's movement are not hacking. at least mine does not hack and 1575 does.!!, who did the He Valve instalaltion. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FxrAndy Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 The later 1570 were hacking like in my 78 1680 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillycheez Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 (edited) Non hacks stopped around 1970-1972. My 1973 is hacking. Edited June 1, 2012 by phillycheez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denimhead Posted June 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 I was under the impression that 1570's movement are not hacking. at least mine does not hack and 1575 does.!!, who did the He Valve instalaltion. Thanks Mines the hacking movement used in the later subs, I believe the movements were often still stamped 1570. Might be wrong though. You need to speak to JMB who resides on your side of the pond re- Installing the He Valve into a non drilled case. Cheers DH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbutlerman Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Congrats! Nice build! Nothing beats the Gen Insides (Movement, Dial, Hands)! Don't worry about the Case and Bracelet being a year apart. My Tudor 79090 Case and Bracelet are the same way. '93 Case and '94 Bracelet. Totally normal! Congrats and enjoy your watch!
