looks amazing! Where did you get the endlink adapters for installing a strap?

Here is the end link from ebay. Im not sure how these adapters are compared to gen. I think these are kind of flat and the gen is more beveled. If someone know that would be great. But the price was right.

Here is the clasp from etsy.

Here is the leather strap from etsy. You have buckle and clasp options. I got the Calatrava buckle.

Trim the crown to gen shape and fix the CG 110

Recess crown

Bevel dial markers

Bevel hands

Fix the moon phase gap

First endlink flexible

Tiffany stamp

I opted out of thinning the case because it was only by 3mm. If you know anyone that can make it 8.8 mm let me know.

FYI the rotor has a decoration plate and it's glued on top of the original rotor. This rotor decor fell off and I had to glue it back on with G-S cement. It happened while I was replacing the strap. There seems to be a lot better of glued on decor on top of the original movement. Be careful.

I used a pairing knife to remove the caseback and a small flat head to take of the rotor. Im letting the rotor dry over night. The watch still works fortuatnly. Since there is so much glued on decorations I would keep this watch far away from humiidty and water. Thank god I live in a dry california.

Pairing knife? The caseback shouldn't be screwed down?
