Thanks, I've heard that it's a basic eta with a mod four the hours jump, any idea where I can find one and will it fit in the case?

I would think its not plausible beside stolen items, and whats wrong with keeping the replica movement?

I've heard the 21j isn't as smooth as the eta, my main reasoning

crazy hours don't have a second hand mate.

Damn totally forgot, look like a right noob now,
I'm looking to franken it so just need to decide on which parts to invest in, I've never, this is my first franken

You are not a right noob, you're a left one. If it were me I'd look for other gens that might have had the same modification and add that to your search. PM Guanaco here, he knows all about these watches. That's the only advice I can give you.

I'd start with a gen dial.

It's already got a gen dial. Just needs luming, the dial has no lume for some reason

it is smoother and better looking in ligthing conditions without the lume, but sure seeing he hours jump with lume at night under the pillows) is a blast

Do you think it's worth getting the dial lumed

Do you think it's worth getting the dial lumed

Not for me

my dial is not genuine but I am uncertain anyone would call it out just based on the dial itself

My replica:

Notice the caseback on this one

Very nice looking watch, whats the deal with the case back

99% of the replicas have the wrong caseback

should look more or less like this

This if the case back of the one I purchased

Yours has a pretty good caseback...are there any genuines that have crazy hour at the bottom?....what dial do you have on yours? the brown?

 

[mac83]

Not sure about the gen case back I'm kinda new to FM's, yes it has the brown dial
