Members,
At what point do you feel as though your franken/super franken feels like genuine to you. I only ask because I have a 5513 that I built from the ground up with all gen parts excluding mid case and crown. In my mind it’s a gen as you can get without a proper serial midcase. I have a gen crown but haven’t installed it yet, and really don’t care to. But when I wear it I feel as though I’m wearing a genuine 5513.
Is that just me? I mean movement, dial. Hands, bracelet and crystal all gen. 95% is gen. But at the same time deep in my head I’m still longing for a complete genuine 5513. Maybe because morally I can’t sell it as gen if needed for emergency. But otherwise I feel that it is. What’s yalls thoughts? Where’s your line in the sand when you feel your watch feels gen to you? Parts wise....?
