I was obsessed with these back in the day, I’ve built every Franken there is with the v4, Lmpo, v5, upo cases etc and I even had an account with cousins to be able to buy brand new gen parts. All that stopped many years ago and parts since have become rare and expensive.
This one I kept as it was a labour of love. The watch has a GEN ETA 2892 which is the base Omega used for their 2500 movements in the PO’s. The watch is a v5 case and caseback, the following specs and costs outline the build;
Gen dial and hands £250
Gen Swiss ETA 2892-a2 £250 (tagged image below)
Gen datewheel (2500c)
Gen bezel assembly and insert £220
Gen crown and tube (see text below) £75
Gen helium valve £75
Gen 1580/952 bracelet (total 11.5 links plus endlinks and clasp). £300
Prof 2 x crystal. £100
Case and caseback from V5 42mm PO £120
All parts were new when bought, back in the days you could source them directly from cousins and ofrei, making this a rare old school gem of a Franken that perfectly replicates the gen. Even more so with the 2892 so the crown turns the opposite way to change the date, just like the gen Omega 2500c.
The watch and bracelet are in pristine condition as can be seen on the photos.
I have very recently replaced the crown and tube and now it screws down nicely.
Never been officially tested for waterproof but I have showered in it without issue.
Selling for £1200 plus postage costs, pp friends and family.
