SMP 300, the JB version case questions


Recommended Posts

Posted

I am building an Omega SMP 300 JB version, not the quartz but the full size automatic.

Now, I have gen parts like dial, hand set, crystal and bezel. So I am looking for the best possible case set. Since I will not possible to find a CF case my question is what is the next best thing?

Edit, just see that a couple of topics below the same question was asked.

But still would like to know if the cheaper Asian movement reps of the SMP accepts gen parts?

Its a crapshoot

 

Here's what I recall when I used to dabble with omegas more

 

1) The CF case accepts genuine everything except for bezel assembly

2) The version after (famously coined Paul or Abay version - has the HEV at 10 exactly) can take genuine bezel assembly but not crown tube - the hole was too big from memory. 

 

Then after that, there were different variations from different dealers and I lost track
