Well, I hope at least one of them works... so that I have the problem of finding a case at all :lol:
Because the seller didn't know much about them, so I have no idea if they work or not...

For now I see a few case options:
- Using a deep case (like U-boat?)
- If the case has big enough rear crystal, replace stock flat one with a domed plexi.
- If the caseback is held by screws - make a stainless spacer ring
- Modify the caseback or make a new one...

But like I said - for now I hope I will have this problem ;) :angel:

Hmm... great find. But it seem like you need to do a lot of cleaning. Or simply add into a vintage build with a open CB & without cleaning out the surface discoloration. It will add a aesthetic vintage feel to the whole build IMHO.Image

I have a question. Is there any easy way to polish this without taking it apart?

[mention]VanSong[/mention] I’m not sure what the plan is for on this yet. Perhaps a 3646 daily beater ... 1st step is to strip down and clean ... convert .....perhaps step 2 is to get a new version [mention]Chileantiques[/mention] plate as I haven’t tried them out yet.

Before that though. I need to practice cleaning a few movements first. I haven’t done any in a couple of years.

[mention]Emilio[/mention] .... here is a quick and dirty using a cotton bud lightly dipped in the solution.
