Several thoughts keep distracting me from work and I can't seem to find an answer to them.
Being a person with a small wrist, I can not wear the 422 or the 372. Which deeply saddens me because I really like the combination of the fiddy case, the sandwich dial and the golden pencil hands (specially the vintage double pencil hands like with the 587).
But being someone with ambitions I thought to myself: why not build it? Already put together a broken 432 and put different hands on it, can't be that hard, eh? It wals already done for a 372 (vintage style) https://www.rwg.bz/board/index.php?/topic/78136-vintage-pam-build-61521-mini-fiddy/
1.) I am unsure about one thing: will a 111 sandwich dial (i want a big second instead of the small mini fiddy one) fit into a minifiddy case? Heard that there are differences in dial size but Jackson supplys nearly no measurements.
2.) If not: What kind of sandwich dial is (readily) available for a mini fiddy case? While I know that the minifiddy is a fantasy watch, at least I want to keep it correct and not a Radiomir dial in a Luminor case.
2.) I recently discovered Getat watch and saw that they sell the parts I need for that build at a reasonable price and would even put it together. But it appears to me they are not a TD here or at RWG. Any Idea where else I can get the parts from? Probably even built? Does Jackson Tse offer the same services? Getat lists a special part I need for anothe build as well (44mm golden hands with big second) and it is not listed with Jackson. Plus I want the PAM branded dial for reasons, not the MM dial.
3.) I own a 338 that features rose gold hands (yuck!) I want to replace them with yellow gold hands. The movement is a ST25. All my research has been unsucssful up to now.
I am looking for either a set of single pencil style hands or double pencil to get it gold plated without getting ripped of (like in 50€ for a set of Hands via TD). Plating them would be surprisingly cheap, I only need to relume them.
4.) I'm looking for a set of golden hands for a 6497 with big second, sold out with Helena, Getat is not a TD but has them listed, Jackson doesn't list them. Any source? NOT fiddy hands as they are too wide.
The fiddy build I have in my mind features a 6497, mini fiddy case with plexi and closed caseback, sandwich dial with big second, golden hands (preferrably the athaya vintage double pencil ones), superlume. Are these parts actually available in this combination?
Hope to gather some useful information from you guys.
(Would have asked over at HF as well, but apparently all my registering failed)
