But if you want a vintage SUB second dial historic and accurate, you are on a terrible path of; time, frustration and money. :wink:

Ah, the voice of experience... :wink:

Don't open any of Enzo's vintage project threads, Luminator. He'll have you on the quest to find a period Angelus, Cortebert or Rolex movement for sure! That's the path to damnation! :lol:

There are more than one version of the CN6497, of those DSN's is probably the best. This has been verified by Ziggy's breakdown of the movement in question, and from first-hand accounts of owning them. (my own have done no wrong!) They look and act better. They have an uncommonly huge spring and power reserver in them 60+ hours! If you want a CN 6497 movement, you can't choose a better one.

What Enzo said .....Davidsen CN6497 movements are one of the best .
