Exploring the open road with a shaped and aged Raffles/Yuki ETA2840 1016 work-in-progress.
Looks amazing this 1016

Which winding crown do have installed?
Can't see it cause of the angle, but a GEN one or a very gen like Rep crown would be a nice optical "add on"

Thanks @Nur-Uhr - this is on my to do list… currently using the Raffles 6mm.


The optimal would be to retap the thread for a gen tube and crown, in the meantime I believe Raffles may have narrower 6mm crowns, so I will reach out to him. Any other suggestions would be appreciated!
