bhduck Posted March 4, 2018 Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 Hi all I’m considering my first franken project - a DSSD. Can anyone give me pointers on the best source for gen parts? I’m most interested in a gen dial and/or hands, as those seem the hardest to rep well but am open to any advice or other views of course. Cheers.

ziax Posted March 4, 2018 Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 Chrono24 is a good website to get gen parts, the parts come from all over the world on that site. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tframo Posted March 4, 2018 Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 Not sure how readily available the parts are for the DSSD.. If budgets and/or availability if gen parts are a concern, I’d go with a 16610 build. JF 16610 base. Send off for movement service and maybe some gen movement parts, gen bezel insert, gen crystal, gen crown, All in under $2000 and very hard to tell apart from gen. Ill post pics of my latest project from our very own meiskiped 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhduck Posted March 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 @hologramet @tftamo I hear you... but the heart wants what the heart wants I’ll just go slow and pick up gen parts if/as I can I think.
