Hi guys..... i’m One of your follower...
well i’ve Always liked to realize a franken of 5711..,.
i’ve finished 6 months ago a 5513 franken and now i’m Ready to start my new project.
well i’m Asking to you ....

i’d like To realize a 5711 with a jaeger cal that is the same of patek and Audemars...

do you have suggestions and suppliers to suggest to me ?.
the idea is:
5711
blue dial
original mvmt + original dial
am I a fool ??...
????????????????????????????????

bc

I do think you are mixing two different models,
5711 has in house patek movement 315/324/330 Sc and we have a clone of the movement done by 3k.
Simpler to find dials and how can use 3k or pf base to make a franken.
What you meant was the 3700 that has the jlc 920 movement called 28-255.
Difficolt to find dial, nearly impossible to find hands, no good watch to start, just the old and nearly impossible to find mbw that is way too thick!

But if we find a gen cal, what’s the best case for fit it?
3k, PF or PPF?
And clone 324 from 3K go into PF or PPF case?
Really I don’t understand what’s better rep of the 3

Gen cal is nearly not possible, if you don’t want so spoil a 9000$ patek just for the movement in case of the 28-255c. That is for the vintage watch that has a lot of problems finding parts.
If you want gen 324 it will cost a lot more and I don’t see the reason why you should buy one when we have the clone...
The budget choice is 3kf complete watch with ppf white dial.
The medium choice pf case and braclet, ppf white dial, 3kf movement and hands.
If you want the best add a gen dial and hands.

 

[Riverwind85]

Then you can find an ap o vc movement for the vintage for much less but the problems still are the hands difficult to find and expensive 2/3k.
For the 3kf clone in the pf I think it will need modding, don’t know how much.

Thanks I’d liked to have Jaeger movt modified on the bridge into a case set and an original dial....
I’ve seen that in Italy is quiet easy find jager mvt....
But I know that is a mess
I’ve done rolex 5513 with original mvt is easier ...
Thanks
Now I’ll study what you’ve told to me to check final price ????????????????????Thanks thanks thanks from italy

I am Italian too.
The problem then are the hands, dial, etc.
It is a build of something like 10k if you can find the parts probably with repainted dial.
Now you find a gen dial for 20k in chrono24 and one for 50k...
Then it is not possible to change the bridges and the most difficult thing to find is the patek rotor. But who cares? It is a closed caseback.
The other possibility to go vintage could be a 3800

You can write me a pm in private in Italian.
But as I told you 3700 is a difficult build, so far I just have seen one.
5711 much simpler now.
All of this builds are expensive and very little information.
You have to inform yourself on what you really want and your budget and then I can help you.

Well, best combination is
3k mov
PF case
gen dial/hands?
corect?

 

[Riverwind85]

That’s it.
Bus still nobody have done it at the moment.
It could be trickier then we think.
I am doing that though.

Does anybody know whether it would be possible to contact the 3k factory directly and purchase only the movement rather than buying the whole watch?

Oh please start reading something in the forum... you can’t contact the factory if not through the td. And they obviously won’t sell just the movement.
Please do some research, at least read the posts about 3kf
