Re: What are you working on now?
Dear Friend I have one dilemma and please help and advise me because I haven't found a similar topic by now. A year ago I bought a perfect pocket cortebert cal. 620. I wanted to use it for 3646.
A long time ago I bought a case set from ebay seller tps-tempus for 3646 with black DLC coating for ut 6497. I used california dial but also there was a space for sandwich dial..
After years of using it I decided to take off DLC and change springs bar lugs with fix lugs..
I know that cortebert 620 is thinner than unitas 6497. Is it possible to put it in this case? Does anyone have similar experience or make adequate holder for cor.620. If I solve holder problem I will search for dial (posible a sandwich one) and blue hands, and new crown.

Re: What are you working on now?
here, take a look at this table so you can decide more easily. It looks like you will need to use a shim to accommodate it.

Re: What are you working on now?
the 616 is 1mm thicker, so it depends on the case/mid ring construction.
You might have problems with dial and bezel clearance.
Unfortunately, I don't own this case set so I can't confirm.
Maybe someone else can?

They don’t make new ones anymore? I had a friend that was about to toss away his $800 quartz watch…. Dealer wanted $600 to service, we found a 1:1 quartz movement for $30

It is how it is, expensive watches and quartz movements for less than $50.

Re: What are you working on now?
Alarm PAM.... Just try to make a thinner alarm mechanism for SF240 that can fit under the dial.
Currently, use Coke can to build and it seems to work, set the time clockwise, and set the alarm&clock anti-clockwise. Will use 0.1mm stainless steel sheet later on.
