Project/ Homage watch update 1


I am a happy person today. I was pretty anxious for the past few days. Why? Well I have been looking for these parts for some time now. Finally about a week ago, I was lucky to be able to purchase a NOS, sealed dial for a watch that I like and wanted. It finally arrived today. I am indeed a happy person.

Part 1 and 2 of 4 is with me. They are the dial and the hands. I have ordered the case, but I have received news that it is currently out of stock, but on order. I should know in about 2 weeks time. Once the case is with me, the next step can commence, and that is to look for the movement. Well a step at a time.

The hands.


The 'balance' of the sweep second hand is a bit bent but I am sure that it can be straighten out.


The dial.

  2. Hi Riley,

    I hope everything will come together. Just got news that the case is on its way to me. Once the case is in, the the hunt for the movement starts.
