Thinking of a Patek build.

[CptTripps]

This is how it starts:

 

By a strange chain of emails, I ended up procuring a Patek Phillipe 530 dial.

 

Upon further investigation, I learned that this not only fits a Valjoux 23 movement, but that was the base-movement for the watch. THAT got me thinking...and searching...and looking some more.

 

So, who's built one? How close to gen can you get here?

 

Pic of the dial is attached. A pic of the gen is also attached.

 

 

 

Phong has a case-set that I can pick up, and the pics look good. I'm just hoping that someone has done a similar build that can lend me some guidance.

 

The dial looks a little "off" to me, so perhaps it's not worth chasing. Opinions?

If I could search on RWG right now...that'd be a bigger help than anything!  

 

I'll keep digging. I'll try to look up who Ubi is too.

 

::: Edit: Found Ubi and sent a PM already :::

I've been curious about a Phong build with OEM dail, too 

 

Let us know how this project fares.
