I might list my Franken ROO soon (26170ti), it’s been sitting in my watch box unused for along time …
Gen 15500-15400 hands
15500 hands will be used for a nice 15202 build after serious discussion with my friend @legend
I'd be keen to see what comes out of marrying a 15500 and a 15202. I'm sure @legend knows what he's doing. My experience with hands experimenting has not always been productive, here's a sample of how a bad pair of hands has delayed by GP project by ... five years
Just a jokeI'd be keen to see what comes out of marrying a 15500 and a 15202. I'm sure @legend knows what he's doing. My experience with hands experimenting has not always been productive, here's a sample of how a bad pair of hands has delayed by GP project by ... five years
Each ones will be used for their correct reference
Ha. It’s been good 5 years since I’ve been sober
I should probably drop you a pmI have been looking at Ebay and chrono24 for months (almost every or every other day) But not have seen it so far…
On top of that, I am not sure if you can fit 16202 move into zf 16202 case? Becasue Afaik ZF’s 15202 and 16202 is basically same but thicker.
What base are you thinking?

Haven't thought about the base yet but I was wondering if it was technically feasible to make a 16202 rep out of a 7121 movement if I were able to get my hands on one
These hands and center pinion are completely off indeed...as the date, dial ... etc ...Does something look off about these hands?
Supposed to be SW hands but looks a bit pizza-y compared to some other photos I’ve seen of other SW hands.

The more I look the more I think these aren't SW hands. Care to confirm @legend ?

Thank you kindly.
Honestly, strange as it may sound, the minute hand does look like an sw one from that pic. The hour hand is likely stock.
From where did you get this watch?

Gonna cop some flack for this but I got it off Reddit. I guess I'll be sending you another watch soon.
It really weird that, jumbo pinion (a lot of times) look humongous on the front photo. Not only the photo. Lot of times modded hands hole really looks that way irl. But when you look at certain angle with right light. pinion looks normal.
I assume this is caused from reflection of light , like convex mirror - reflexting light making things bigger than actual.
So I kind of fixed this issue by grinding pinion for the minute and just a little.

There’s nothing wrong with reddit at all except for its existence. Other than that it’s all good don’t worry.
