One of my latest builds using just the finest parts and good vision:

- Freshly serviced Valjoux 726 (correct bph)
- Gen spec VN case slightly reworked with correct engraving and serial
- Custom silver VN dial with gen coronet
- Phong hands
- Gen 703 crown and swiss made p302 pushers (identical to gen)
- Gen doomed T21 plexi
- Gen 571 endlinks and 78350 bracelet with gen springbars

Nice, where is it possible to find swiss made pushers? These are better than phong's?

Thanks! I never had mk3 hands from phong, only mk2 which are very good. They are from a local supplier and look and feel extremely close to my gen p302 I have on other watches.

Cousins has p302 pushers which I used on a cartel build. They’re of great quality.

Maybe OP used the same? They’re around £60 each I believe.

Lovely piece sir!

would you mind sharing pictures and specs of your cartel build? looking to dive in to one soon and would love to see what others have done with them

obviously OP's looks stunning but I'm not looking to spend that much and dont have the heart to sacrifice a genuine vintage watch just for the movement.
