***DEPTH / COMPASS TYPE CASE***

well, with the recent marketing of depth dials, i figured we needed a case to go with them!
this is the prototype, its quick, dirty, and banged up, the production cases will be either aluminium or
stainless. each one is made to drop in a 6497, atheya's 8mm crown, a plexi will be included as well as
compression fit lug bars, and the engravings, lug engravings additional option. the bezel is press fit,
just pop it out, drop your 6497 in, insert your stem flip it open remove the little screw (will be have a
smaller head and more flush) tighten the stem, pop on the bezel and crystal and your done!
no fiddling with movement rings, or spacers.
case is made for the 37mm dial, 39 may fit, but it will be tight, as far as thickness of the dial there is some
play because of the way the bezel fits you can have thick or a bit thinner, since lots of hand work goes
into the case before its shipped, i can cut the bezel for your dial thickness so you get the max hold
of the bezel.

the selling price will be 350usd for stainless or hard coat aluminium.

plexi hands are in process, and will be here when cases are ready, time depends on demand, the cases are ready to go
just need to know how many we need!

the case is 42x57 lugs 22

This project was finished long time ago, on the old forum.

Contact Joe directly to see if he can get one for you.

Can these be modified to take a rotating bezel? I like the straight edge lugs.

That rotating bezel looks perfect.

that case is fairly versatile, though adding a rotating bezel is tricky... but it looks good in several different configurations.
