I see an error in his description......"a great investment as they are sure not making these anymore"

Well I believe that is wrong. I know someone who is making them. :)

Yes Bloo, I too think is gonna be a good case to mod a small Egi! But I've check on other listing of the same product and indicate a 49mm diameter case size. Wondering which is correct! Anyway is still smaller than what we normally have and pricing looks affordable for a mod.

Great buy bud. Going to use the quartz and just do a dial swap or look to put a new movement in there?

I have a few movements that would love a home but I’m tempted to stick with the quartz as a grab and go. But I’m going to go in a similar direction as Albatross with the case and a mini Egi dial. Really depends on the weight of the case once I have it in my hand. I don’t like wearing my straps as tight as a heavy diver requires to keep it from capsizing on my wrist so if it’s really light then I’ll put a 6497 in there.
