And cost? if you don’t mind of course.

Hard to tell really as it all depends on how lucky you are when you score the items like the movement, the gen crown or the case.
It can be anywhere between $3.5k (if you are really lucky and take your time getting the parts collected over a year or two) to $5.5k and up really. You decide to add gen mk3 pushers and thats another $1300-1500 jump. Gen bracelet is $700-1200.
There was a v72 based piece recently with lots of Phong parts that was listed at $8k and seller stated he spent $11k. But if I recall correctly it also had all the bridges installed in an attempt to make it closer to rolex 727.
It is also getting hard to find the movement alone without the need to buy the whole donor watch and these watches are getting expensive lately.
But still, this is all a little fraction of what the gen costs nowadays so absolutely worth it if you love these watches.
