Hi All

I have a JF Factory AP Royal Oak Offshore 2017 Summer Edition V2 MOVEMENT: Asia 7750 Automatic with Secs @12 I'm keen to franken.

This will be my first franken project on an AP so please feel free to provide advice.

I’ve got a valjoux 7750 movement which I’d be keen to shoehorn in, has anyone tried mounting the Rep plate/gears required for the Sec@12 on to the ETA movemen? Yes I know that the remaining rep components will potentially create reliability issues but I already had the ETA so why not put it to some use.

Also, I've sourced gen hands already but still need to source gen dial, tachy back plate and date wheel. Is there anything else you would suggest adding I'm also looking for a modder to do the work (and help source remaining components if possible), I'm based in Australia so am happy to post o/s. Have also PMed legend but no response yet.

Thanks for your time.

You need a LWO283 movment (ETA 2892 with Dubois depraz Chrono modul) if you want to build a franken AP,
