v1 was a lot better. The case was able to take a 29mm dial. I still have this dial, hands and movement btw...

Check out my old project:

I like DVNE's watch what are build specs??? the first one is a bit cheesy without applied markers. How much was the build in comparison to the 150.00 Tiger version?

This will be in my box upon release I am not sure how it makes the rotation, but a must have!!

You are correct M, hopefully the maker will get these complete in the next month or so.

I always check PT's thread since he has worked to make this a true super rep and we all hope it will in fact be just that.

I used a Tiger v.1 big drown watch which used a 29mm dial. The dial was sourced from RafflesTime and I had Rick914 swap the dial for me. The hands were the original gold Tiger hands that came with the watch. The new tiger cases has a weird dial size now. I purchased the v.2 and returned it right away.

I still have the dial if anyone is interested. Has legs for a 21j. You can easily mount it on a 25j with dial dots.
