Hi! What is the best hands combo for a 1665?

I'm out of the loop on these but assuming you're using an ETA movement then Tudor is the top choice I believe. Back then, when I was building a 1665 and not using Tudor I opted for the set sold by Clarks as did Freddy333. This was years ago I must admit.

Yes, them's the ones. Remember I am talking about my knowledge from 9 years ago!

Clark's what I used 5 years ago. You also could use the TC set of hands- might be better lume if that's what you're looking for.

i think the minute hand is broader on tc, so maybe a combo of tc and clarks then. The hands are going to be relumed anyways.
