dbane883 Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Any serious watch collector should have a pre-moon in the box. It's just a classic. I'm still on the hunt for a nice (gen) '66. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droptopman Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Same here. Birth year right. There was a really nice one in the gen sales area in July but I did not jump. I was on the GMT build then so I was grinding on that. Kinda fell off my radar until I saw this one. Now I will grind on this until I find one...it's the OCD Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

mghm3 Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) Here are the 3 watches I currently have that I consider frankens. Remember that my definition of franken might not be the same as yours, so please don't go crazy about whether they are franken or not. The one I have had the longest (3 months or so) is my TC v6 with gen bezel, crystal, and crown. And the 2 I received this week are my myanmatt datejust with an ETA movement, gen crystal, gen dial, gen crown and my two tone 16613 with a 21j movement that I am planning to make in to a great 16613 frankenstein using a TC case and 18k gold parts. It has a gen (water damaged) dial and a gen bezel insert, both of which will be used in my project. I really love the look of the water damaged dial, it has tons of character. Sorry for the dust and lint in my pictures, forgot to wipe em off. Edited September 19, 2014 by mghm3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
