Have placed an order for ARF 16610LN.
Have almost all gen parts ready :
complete bezel assembly
insert SL
hands SL
Xtal
DW
Crown
Clickspring
VS3135
Only looking for a Swiss only dial and base watch to arrive.
Are all these parts a straight fit on a ARF V2 case?

You should be good to go, the case is gen spec so you shouldn’t have any problems.

I did the same thing as you (I added a gen 93150 bracelet and holes in the lugs) and the watchmaker who assembled everything for me had problems with the bezel group, in particular the bezel that did not turn.
The entire bezel group was obviously original, I don't know if perhaps over the years they changed the measurements of these.
Anyway tripdog with some modifications managed to solve the problem. The bezel turns, not perfectly, but it turns.
At some point it's just like any other hobby. People pay tens of thousands for custom road bikes they only take out a few times a year to show the neighborhood or pay millions for pokemon cards for instance.
It's like buiding a JDM car or a gaming computer. Sourcing parts and putting it together is the fun part.
