Awesome! Looks great! That Orange second hand is killer. I've thought about doing the same with my gen 3750 and swapping out the "old" Snoopy dial.

But of course the caseback is impossible to find and I still have fantasies of selling it and buying a 105.012 some day...

Go for it! If you can float $125 every time you want to change your Speedy, I say money well spent. That's part of the beauty of these. As long as it's a run of the mill Speedy.... have fun with it!!

You should be happy about the movement before this the only choice we had was BP factory with rebuilt swiss junk that arrived with crappy dials and broken movements. This Dial looks great and unless your Miyota stutters it has a BPH of 21K which is only 4K off genuine!


Just arrived. Pretty sweet watch, just a shame about the shite movement :)

I'm not sure what movement it is tbh. Intime lists it as a 23j, and it's not a Miyota as it hacks when I set the time. It doesn't stutter badly but I've been wearing a smooth sweeping 2836 Noob PO for the last weeks and it is noticable when you compare the two. The dial is stunning when seen in daylight, I feel they made it pretty close to gen except for the size (it's a 42mm). At 278$, there's not much to complain about :)

Finally received my Super Franken.
Gen dial, Hands, Crown/tube, Caseback, Gaskets, Clasp, links, Datewheel, Movement Holder..

Rep endlinks right now, as well as rep bezel, insert and crystal as they all are as good enough and don't warrant spending the extra money right now.

Strodda built a 2892-A2 movement for me using parts from a clone, a gen omega movement and parts from a Swiss ETA. It's the best time keeping watch in my collection and absolutely the smoothest to wind. Strodda's work is impeccable and I wouldn't hesitate to have him work my watches in the future.

OH LA LA! it turned out fantasitc! You're making me miss my gen! But it's okay. Gen parts are building! :) I love this deepness of the black gen bezel insert. One thing I think the CRPO really needs in a non Liquid Metal fashion. Any who! Let me go back to drooling over this!
