However I do still have 2 x new & unused NW Cali dials left in my parts bin, now all. Need is an esdeee case, bin bin hands
Got my first 6152-1 today! Look what you made me do @PAM_BOY haha.
Didn’t realize it, but the 6152 case has much longer lugs than the regular 47mm ones. Took a comparison pic next to my 217 and 422. Now my wrist feels too small!

I’m in good company! I think I need a 6154 build next!! Can you share some of yours?Mine says hello...
Oh man yours is in great condition. Mine is all scratched up from wearing it daily everywhere including gym for 6 years....and my 217
The 422 is STILL MISSING in my collection

just looking over this thread has given me instant regret about selling my vintages now
TBH - I regret not buying your vintages at the time, though now I'd rather you'd kept them and were still posting regularly.

Congrats on your first 6152/1. There are some smaller lugged 6152 case options out there if you can find them, which isn't easy but they do pop up from time to time. The old Jackson 'Dumbo' case sets are a great size and sit on the wrist much more comfortably than the NightWatch / AliX cases. DSN also made a similar 6152 to the Jackson which was more along the lines of the fiddy case set.
Here's a NightWatch (MM/dark strap) case next to a Jackson for comparisson:

Maybe another 6152-1 with mmlp and 8gpf. You have given me a lot of inspiration. If you ever decide to sell any of yours please keep me in mind.
