It shouldn't be that difficult to achieve.

Is this River? ... I'm highly tempted to add a Milli metri ... but those 47mm slabs are just huge!? ... wouldn't a 44 or 45 be more practical for more customers ??? The bronze is cool ... but Titanium would be :thumbup:

WTF!!! That's spectacular!! ... I have an 8 day angelus prototype movement and 8 day Concord movement that both can be installed in watch cases ... however, the only problem with these esoteric movements is getting parts if it craps out?!!

Yes, that’s Rivers eBay account.
You can probably get a better price by emailing him and buying direct to get around those EBay fees.

With your skills and knowledge,it is.But I think these movements are amongst the rarest of all small 8 day engines.

I used to have two of those as well,now I only have one in a mini 6152 no-cg build.Both had broken balance staffs but were resurrected by Yoda.So if some parts crap out,they can be made anew.With my frequency of wearing watches,that's alm ost impossible though. :lol:
