AFAIK yes, I installed dial and Raffles hands. He later upgraded hands to ARF. If you really want a complete conversion, you could swap in a rep crown, caseback, and clasp.
Yes, dial and hands are from ARF 2824. Rest is stock. Luckily I had arf 2824 dial on hand. Sourced the hands, lucky I found them, waited months. Perfect combo. Fantasy watch but next to my gens..oh so sweet. Its a great convo piece.
somif I am correctly understood the parts needed are:
ARF : 2824 dial,hands,crown clasp and case back?
GEN : xtal gasket?
are all these parts a straight fit without need to do any mods?
Dial and hands are the only knowns so far bro, 1:1 swap. I think it's reasonable to assume a rep clasp will fit, though personally I would use a glidelock not a 5 digit fliplock. I use a glidelock on my gen 16710. I don't see a need to change the crystal or the gasket.
you add great value in many of the same threads I am interested thanks for that!:notworthy:
