manodeoro Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Hi guys,I've been thinking about building a 5513 those days as I have a gilt 5513 Serpico Y Laino decal dial that's waiting in my drawer.I prefer too put time than money in that build so I'm searching for a cheap start case.I would like to know what you think about Tiger Concept 5513 V2 as I can get one for $90 shipped with a Miyota 8215 inside.My questions are :1 - is the bezel on those watches easily removable (even if not Gen soecs) or not ?2 - which size is the dial opening on those casesHere are some pics of the watch I'm offered.The lugs are a little pointy but I can rework them and the CGs too and I can redrill the lugs so that they take 2mm bars.The worst part is the plexi IMO but I have some waiting in my drawers too.So please tell me what you think about that watch.

automatico Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Here is a picture of one apart so you can see how it is made. The poster tells about putting a T19 on it. http://walletfriendlywatchforum.com/read.php?7,601204,601204 Tiger watch website: http://www.tiger-concept.com/5513v2-watch.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackflash Posted January 20, 2019 Report Share Posted January 20, 2019 One thing to check is the rehaut, make sure it's 90 degrees to the dial and not "woky". Some appear to be so, could just be crystal distortion though: https://www.watchpatrol.net/listing/574367/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
