Accutronitis Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) I changed a few parts but mostly it's all original, it has all the sub hands back on it now. I'm posting this here by special request...... Edited January 22, 2017 by Accutronitis 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ceejay Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 I love column wheel chronos, even the Chinese make a nice looking column wheel chrono. It's such a shame most of these V72 watches are butchered for their movements Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accutronitis Posted January 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 The first time I disassembled that movement I took a ton of pictures though my stereo microscope and even then I was thinking "what did I get myself into now ! it took a bit of movement assembly and back tracking before I got it all back together again, I've had it apart and back together again several times now and it was much easier each time !

gasebah Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 I think it takes a lot of courage to disassemble a Valjoux 72 and a lot of skills to reassemble it as well. Maybe I should get one of those microscopes as well. Hats off. Wonderful watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
