The xtal height has never really bothered me. But as in all things, once you start thinking about it, it just doesn't go away! That extra fraction compared to a gen 666… well… it might have to be my next mod.
So much effort for such relatively little gain. Lol. It's so damn close.

New BPSD with Miyota xtal height looks much better

I think cgs look ok... SELS suck, but that can be fixed with a TD bracelet

Looking good buddy. Would definitely recommend a TC 93250 - should fit your case like a glove without too much sanding.

I like the latest BP SD crystal height, but I'd prefer an ETA movement. I have a Miyota 8215 in my AT Blue and it runs like a trooper, but the rotor is a little noisy and the sweep choppy. It's a pity we can just use a thinner crystal gasket like you can on the Sub C builds to drop the crystal height a little [emoji30]

Think the xtal height is not as tall as the previous bpsds but I could be wrong..to me it looks just about right..no?

Isn't the xtal supposed to be tall? Here is a gen for comparison. I think the new Bpsd xtal height is going downhill.

Anyone have a digital caliper and could measure the inside of the lugs on one of these?

Its 20mm and may vary from one example to the next, go on ebay and get some digital calipers , they are cheap, buy a TC bracelet and sand to fit.

Wait you have been here a long time. Do you think the new BPs might be different from the old. I really like the crystal height I wonder what will fit inside and what machine work Adrian could do.

I have a tc bracelet on the watch right now but unfortunately it's not with me. It's out getting some stuff done. Then it has to go to Adrian to get gen xtal installed. I have also found a gen bracelet but I am hesitant to buy it because it is a lot of money and I don't want to have to shave it down to fit. I was thinking since I had to shave the tc bracelet that maybe the BP case is a little small? Just guessing because I believe tc bracelet is supposed to be gen spec. But maybe the TC bracelet is a little wide compared to gen? I know all cases may be off from the next so I guess I will have to wait for mine to come back to measure it.

Same thoughts that I had? I already to deep in my build and I know a yuki 3135 will fit in this case. Lug holes have been drilled and crown gaurds re worked so no need for me to think about the new BP. Would like to see some real life pics once some members get one.

I think mine should be done soon, we ran into some stumbling blocks but I trust [MENTION=57548]Tagfan1[/MENTION] will have it done at the end of the month.

Any issues that I should know about? Or just personal ones?
