Sneak peek at ETA dw installation

fe631f1468637fa27d88ea95a4473d6f.jpg


The black dw is rep, white is gen ETA DW

334e8d2c2196069c2eab737c39b4aed5.jpg


As you can see the gen is slightly thicker, leaving just hairline thick space between it and the transfer gears.

But Chris is testing it on a guinea pig AP to see if all works fine without any alteration to it.

DW swap looks like a heart surgery. We are so lucky to have people like You and Chris who are willing to take all trouble from our hands.

Hey Gentlemen,

Will you guys be offering the full watch for sale or just the mods. For instance, will we have to send in our piece on hand for you guys to mod it with the parts or could we just purchase the final product? What's the estimated price ratio compared to JF & and will there be shipping to Europe?

Hi. We wilk have more detail once we receive SV status and the product is fully completed.
But for the most members, it will be offered as fully modded watch, not parts.

Haha thanks Miguel,

But you are exaggerating mate. lol

well, i guess i can reveal the plan now that it is near completion.

The first batch will be limited to 25 piece only. :-O

As funds have stretched too far already for us with various parts and equipments for mod works, we will make 25 piece in the order of receipt of confirmed order.

We will gauge the interest then to decide whether to plan the second run or not.

Test print of logo. Nearly there but will make it crispier for the final product.

And the extremely short video of gear working fine on top of the thicker ETA DW. Might want to maximise the video screen to see the gear working.

Off course I was kidding :giggle: JF is a whole factory and I'm sure they sell a huge amount of them even with those flaws.

Oh I see , sounds like a good idea. Can't wait to see the finished product :thumbup:

Hopefully you guys will take in watches to mod, not just selling completed pcs. For us who already have the JF version. I don't want to have 3 same GPs. lol
