Ephry73 Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 I got this dial a few months ago in hopes to use it in the 5514 project but decide to just build a 5513 instead with a Josh case I had laying around. Keeper or should I part it or with it? Gen Eta 2824 movement Yuki hands 5513 reprint dial Josh 5513 case Faded gen insert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Nothing jumps out at me, but the pics are not very useful for any serious qualifications. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephry73 Posted June 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 HAHA. I know. I was getting dressed to go run with the dog and saw the watch on the dresser and took some pics. I'll get better shots this weekend. Thanks Freddy E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Typical Josh case, trim the inside edges of the cg's and put a smaller crown on there. Are the hands on your SD blue? Lume looks better on the 5513 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephry73 Posted June 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 I relumed the 5513 to try to give it a relumed vintage deal( I know I know) The SD hands are green , but for reason came out blueish in the picture. E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 I'm all for reluming these vintage reps, it makes them more fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praetor Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 If it were me, I'd get a new case and crystal and call it a day. the parts itself looks good hm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephry73 Posted June 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Forgot. The crystal is the star time t19 replacement. I will take better pics. E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiesn089 Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 If you decide to not keep it, I might be interested in the bezel insert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsiadeCuba Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 ill take the whole thing! that insert realy makes the watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Have to agree with Freddy, nothing really 'jumps out' at me about it, but that is good, that gives it that 'below the radar' stealth factor, I bet it wears much better than it models PS I was actually going to say swap in a new insert, that one looks a bit over-faded, but then saw it's a naturally-faded gen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephry73 Posted June 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Thanks guys. I'll take better pictures later this week. The movement rocks though. Cannot wait for the folded bracelet. EThanks brother. That's the same insert I had on the 7928 build. I may put that watch back together since no one wants the dial . E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
