I might have parts for that.

Congrats! it's a great base for a 6153 (the Rolex 6154)

Perhaps some of the Elders know what kind of case this is. The CB consists of a display CB on which a solid thick CB is attached. Apparently the case was re-shaped and the dial seems to stem from HF resources. Strap is of proper quality and length with an unsigned, sewn-in GPF buckle.

Oh, cheers!
So, I was really lucky
The offer had only pics from the top and back, but not from the side.
You are giving me ideas with the 6153, in particular since I already made myself a 6152/12 no CG from a 6152/2 where the CG areas where re-welded.
What parts would I need for 6153?

A little clearer picture.

I love how it looks! Looks like I won't have to be taking it apart to clean the inside of the lens unlike the other one my gf has.
