I wanted to create a movement with a gold colored main plate, and steel bridges. I hope it will look nice.

Hi [mention]netniet[/mention] i managed to pick up the same bronze case - out of interest, did you do any reshaping or leave it as it is?

Good thing you planned ahead and got all the parts since the pandemic is not helping with the shipping of stuff.

Enjoy!

Decided to change engravings... from laser to pantograph

Small details that matter

i was thinking extend the tube or put one more O ring... it was too short. but on original pictures, the crown is almost in the middle. so later maybe i will shorten it a bit... after I instal the movement. first time work with A240, i do not know how far you need too pull the crown to set the time... its my only secong homage ... also the thread for CG screws is too short, I mesured its 1.9mm. i wonder can I use 2mm? i do not want to shorten the screws...
