cougaree Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 This is really bad... I have had this watch for a while now, but never bothered to figure out what exactly the model is. Thanks for your help! The crystal is measured to be about 40mm across. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmcsherry Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 You've got a Fiddy case and CG, Asian 6497 movement, vintage-style hands and dial - so it's not a Panerai model, but could be used as a good starting point for a vintage base project!

Hmm, I see. Thanks for your knowledge and input! If I'm using as a vintage base project, what would be your recommendations? What kind of dial and hands should I get? I have ordered a new set of ETA H3 canon pinions, but not sure if it's better to install them on a new ETA movement I can get from Ofrei or this one (which works pretty accurately).
