SH 3135 based builds

Thought I’d share some pics of my recent builds. Both utilize the SH 3135.

First is a JF case with drilled lugs, gen insert, gen crystal and gen autowind. Stock hands dial crown and bracelet

16800
Second is a TC V5 case with drilled lugs,gen insert,gen crown,gen crystal, gen bezel, gen retainer and gen 16800 dial. Bracelet is a gen 93150 with 593 endlinks.

You need an open 6/9 datewheel on that 16800 to really make it pop. Great builds!

Yeah I do let me know if you come across one for a 3135 I’ve been looking. But I’ve seen matt dial 16800’s with closed font service date wheels though.

absolutely beautiful builds... did you reshape the jf case? the lugs look a lot better than any stock jf 16610 i've seen.

Also, would you mind sharing who you got to drill lug holes?

Seems like Curt941 has an open 6/9 dw:

wow, very nice builds....what is your experience so far with the movements?

 

[Yelow69]

Yes the JF had the lugs thinned, a real must for these cases. JMB does a great job drilling lugs.

I found one years ago on VRF.
I have a real itch to get a gen dial this reprint on a gen Singer plate just doesn’t tickle my pickle like it used to.
