Speedy conversion to Swiss


Jimster

Recommended Posts

I'm wondering if anyone has installed a Swiss 3 register chrono movement like the Lemania or older Landeron in a rep case.

Getting a gen dial and hands is no problem and not that pricey.

I have an old Lemania movement from a Tissot and would like to give it a try if anyone knows about the pusher spacing and depth.

Thanks,

Jim

The Lemania needed for a Speedy is the 1873.

I'd go with a gen case. Ofrei sells them for about $570. Add a genuine hand set (about $85) and a genuine dial (about $150) and you have a perfectly gen looking watch for $800 plus the movement.

Canibalising a rep is $300 cheaper but you have to live with the flaws of the case...
