I want to franken my calibre 16 day date

[garnier]

Hi mates,

I need to know where to buy gen hands and gen pushers for carrera calibre 16 day date cv2a10. I've been searching but found nothing.

Till now I only have the gen dial.

I've seen some thread of a franken one but no info regarding where to buy the spares. Also I would like to know if it is possible to buy a gen movement at good price. If not I will buy a new swiss eta 7750.

Thanks in advance

Nobody knows where to buy gen hands?

@Relentless Penetration sent me this link a while back http://www.rwg.bz/board/index.php?showtopic=47157&st=0

I thought he said he got the parts from Cousins but I misread it, a "supplier in Malaysia" apparently. He did mention he couldn't make the pushers fit.

Don't know if you've seen it already but it might be some help.

Also don't forget that the Chrono second hand is slightly bigger on the Asian 7750 compared to a gen ETA 7750, but i think you should be able to gently widen the tube on the ETA 7750 to accept the rep second hand if you're lucky

I am going to install a sellita sw500 with rep pushers and rep hands if possible

Ok, impossible to get the gen hands. Does anybody knows if it is possible to fit the rep hands in a swiss genuine eta 7750 calibre 16?

Ok, I guess nobody knows. I will try in the movements section.
Thanks

It's a very simple question.
"Hour and minute" hands are a direct fit.
Subdial hands and central sec hand need to be modified.

You can just send the hands to a skilled watchmaker.
