Damn, the project died even before it started and I forgot...There is this thick threaded brass disk in there and it appears that it is up to the owner to have it opened up to fit a desired movement. I have no means myself and no machine shop to take care of that without smashing the threads.
Expensive and exclusive anchor?
Send it to Kp0y. He can achieve perfect result for you!
Finding a crown and crown tube to fit, threading the case, soldering...I am not a builder, don't care much about building.

I can make a stand for it.
You have to finish it man. Too rare parts to hide them. Take Athaya onion crown (better than NW) and move to Alex. He could surely match them for you

I am drowning in parts and cases, Oyang 3646, Davedew case, Esdee/Elias V2 WL, early DSN 6152, Eddy Lee 6152, Kemmner cases, Nejad bronze, U-boat, RGM 222 and a few more, damn...

I can't sell any of these, they were parts of trades or gifts, it is a no no in my world.

Saturday arrived. This thing has got to be special. A friend said "who would put a 21 Jewel movement in a brass case".
Just look at that thick plexi, You can see the crack. It is at least 2mm thick.

44mm case. Both inner bezels rotate super smooth

and a 21Jewel movement. With the option to upgrade the jewel count.
