Hi, I wonder if anyone can help! I am looking for a Radiomir Chronograph style case similar to that pictured for a movement and dial I have. According to my watchmaker friend the measurements of my components are as follows:


Movement

Diameter 30.30mm

Depth 7.7mm

Depth including pinion 9.77mm


Dial

Diameter 35.16mm


Would anyone know where I could get a suitable case? Any help greatly appreciated. Many thanks. Michael

Good find, good price, considering that you would pay $250(?) if you find a single unit. Buy 30 and sell the other 29, but don't quit your day job yet! ;-) Also, ask them to sell only 10?

Incredible, a case for $16?! Even 30 isn't a fortune.

Thanks guys but I ordered one of the Alpha ones a while back and it was too small for the dimensions of my dial and movement?

Woh,I fall in love with this case. Belkin dial and a good movement? Potential project?
Maybe I am sick…

Perhaps you could get a radiomir case and get someone to machine chrono pushers into it?

You intend to use 7750? I doubt you will find a radiomir styled case for that movement. If you are really set on making one, then probably yopur best bet would be to use Alpha case with custom/modified bezel and/or caseback...
