Thank you! A veteran with scars to prove it.... I've destroyed more than one case trying to do reshaping.

Re: Any watches and those unfinished with Oyang case sets
I finally got around to reading this whole thread and some history of these Oyang cases. Over the 10+ years, I've experienced something similar over on the REP forums ... back in the day, there were a few individuals that took it upon themselves to have Pre-A dials, crowns, and crown guards make for various models. You will hear of guys like Tourby, FGD, Little Hero, Phong, Eddie Lee ... etc. Some of the parts that came from these efforts were great offerings at the time. These guys did it for several reasons ... among them .. the love of the hobby and to get themselves parts while offering the remaining batch to offset their costs. Some of those guys got Cease and Desist letters from Panerai
... some of us wish they still had the CAD drawings for those Phong case sets!
As with this (or most) hobby ... the devil, the love and the cost is in the details.

Forgive my ignorance. Is this Phong the same one now working on high end Rollie vintage cases like 6538, 5512-3 etc?

The much debated, sought after, incredible, untouched 3646 Oyang case, thanks Oyang!
I am not going to alter anything, I like it as it is - well, apart from the massive brass part in the middle, but I think that I have a movement ring ready somewhere.
