sputim Posted October 21, 2014 Report Posted October 21, 2014 I thought to start this thread with a low-budget watch which is incredible nice and has a powerful and very trivial 19j movement which only consists of 51 parts (thus the name sistem51 by Swatch) and has a huge power reserve of about 90 hours. Moreover, the movement is from A to Z produced mechanically. However, it can't be serviced since the caseback is permanently sealed. Nevertheless, the movement should run for 10 - 20 years without any service according to Swatch group. Now have a look guys
lhooq Posted October 21, 2014 Report Posted October 21, 2014 The Sistem51's a very special watch, though I like the one in white best for some reason. I can't remember a Swatch getting so many people excited since the days of Swatch Guards! For me, it's the old Speedy:
Elchino Posted October 21, 2014 Report Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) I wonder if in the future this sistem51 movement could be adapted to the new incoming reps. Edited October 21, 2014 by Elchino

droptopman Posted October 21, 2014 Report Posted October 21, 2014 Spend some more time shaping and polishing my GMT case this weekend. Crappy pic in the airport. I will take some decent shots this weekend. It looks much better. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.
Nightwatch Posted October 21, 2014 Report Posted October 21, 2014 A "nothing original" vintage 5513 with several mismatched replacement parts over time. Exactly like I found it, lying forgotten in a damp and rusty box for probably the last 30 years. Very comfortable to wear on the leather:)
dbane883 Posted October 21, 2014 Report Posted October 21, 2014 1675 blueberry from m2m sale So you're the one that bought it.. nice pick up
cc33 Posted October 21, 2014 Report Posted October 21, 2014 Thanks, I needed a daily beater to give my poor bc a rest, I've never been a fan of gmt's but it looks great without the cyclops and with the blue insert not to mention the full red gmt hand, what a killer combo!

Indeed a beauty! You know by any chance which case was used for this built?
cc33 Posted October 21, 2014 Report Posted October 21, 2014 Thank you, I think it's a modded cartel case with cwp bezel/insert.
sputim Posted October 21, 2014 Author Report Posted October 21, 2014 Thank you, I think it's a modded cartel case with cwp bezel/insert. Modded 1675 or 1655? Cwp for clark watch parts, right?
