Hi from South Africa. With a question

Post by Kobus »

Hi, looks like a great place.

So it seems that there is a lot of building going on.

What I can not yet figure out is, where are the “kits” purchased?

Hi Kobus, there are a few options depending on what you are looking for. You might like to start with https://www.vintagewatchparts.co.uk/store/ and http://parts.athayavintage.com/ but there are others as well. Check out the sponsor sites here as well and there are always M2M sales together you started.

Hi Kobus, welcome to H-F!

There are really no kits out there, but a lot of sources.

Helenarou could be a good start. Google it and you will find something to your taste.

Questions, fire away!

TPS TEMPUS is River in the sponsors section.

I highly recommend Athaya and Night Watch

Welcome

The kits you see recently for sale are collections of parts from different sources, pretty good and will save you time and effort researching and sourcing yourself.

Usually takes members a while and eventually funds required for other stuff, so builds in progress come up for sale as ‘kits’...
