meaning that there's a better way then this option?

- getatwatch case (polished or pvd coated depending on the model)

- FGD dial

- LH cg

- T crown

- DSN caseback

should we form a projectgroup?

To keep costs down a CAD drawing would be much better than measurements. The actual milling is the easy and comparatively inexepensive part. It's the design and prototype piece that kill you. To be sure a case can be made from a blueprint or even from measurements, but you're talking about another 1k-1.5k in startup costs. Divided by, say, a 20 piece run, that's $75 per unit on top of what will probabl;y be a $250 case to begin with. With the talent pool at RWG i refuse to believe we don't have someone who can do a CAD drawing with a few hours work.

just to bring this back to life.. theres a guy on repgeek that can do cad drawing i think.. but what kind of cad drawing do u actually need though? i kind of have a panerai 202/a blueprint i think somewhere i'll send it over if you want

The hands will soon be sorted thanks to FGD. Now who's going to fix the case?

I'd be happy to do 3d models of a case... I started it already, but just having a bit of a rough time with the case's underside profile...

silix cases?

Well I just received a Getat SS case and I'm here to debunk the myth that this is a good Pre-V case option. I've heard a lot of folks on mention this case so wanted to try one. While a very nice case - it is no different that a standard case and is very similar to the Ultimate E series cases Angus and PT were selling.

It does not, however, have the desired squat and chuncky Pre-V lugs.
