It is not every day that one works on a Diver Franken for such a great RWI member. It is not everyday that one gets to install/adapt so many gen parts:

How I read this-Gen parts: look at the photos, it is easy to see them
Difficulty level: 9/10 (i.e. don't try this at home)
Parts modified: movement holder, seconds gear, chapter ring, etc.
I didn’t forget it, I ignore it out of fear of what it could be
Hats off to you, Sir!!! It’s because of you and a very few other members here that I keep coming back to this place.I usually omit the nasty stuff... to keep the site still "PG rated"
:hehehe:
But, to not be glib and evasive, this whole modding experience taught me (I love when I learn something through these types of labors) a definite lesson: those who think they have a "super-rep" with a factory stock "JF V7 Diver" are living a dream. The cosmetic and haptic and even artistic improvements to be won by integrating as many gen parts into a SS Diver Franken build are immense. Entirely worth the tremendous expense and hassle.
What do you guys think of this ? One of my new holy grails

Legend!
I had my V7 diver with J at the same time he had this. I honestly would not have mind if they got mixed up [emoji12].
Looks amazing. V7 doesn't hold water you your franken.
Thank you, Sir
You realise that there’s a gen 15703 dial up for sale in the parts section
