Tribal Posted April 11 Report Share Posted April 11 Hello Gang,I want to share my latest project.Not ready yet, but gives a clue how it comes out.It's mostly Raffles, reshaped the really big CG's inside out. Dial and Hands are also Raffles.

automatico Posted April 12 Report Share Posted April 12 "I want to share my latest project. Not ready yet but gives a clue how it comes out." Looks like it's off to a very good start! My abandoned '1675/16750' project from 10 or 15 years ago, in shady B&W... In living color... Still nos, came with new Swiss ETA 2836/Asian 24H conversion. Abandoned because...closed 6/9, crystal is too tall, crown is 6.0mm, not 5.3mm, dial is fair but not properly signed (guess where). Would make a better 16750 than 1675 with the 28,800 2836. Probably a vintage submariner 1680 case. Better off with a Raffles case. Otoh...bezel turns both ways, no clicks, bezel insert is Ok and mounts flat in bez body, good spacing on lug holes, Ok to drill them out. Did I ever get started on it? Not yet. Will I ever finish it? Probably not. Crown pulled out to stop it from running. Pics taken 4-12-24. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
