Hi,
I recently bought an Elgin A- 11 case and was wondering if anyone can tell me where I can source the movement and dial from. Also any advice on how much I should be paying would be a real help - as I'm new to this but fell head over heels in love with it!
I need a 539 cal for a ww2 Elgin case
and dial no. 1674 - think this is the black one?

I would love to get the hacking feature too if I'm not asking miracles...

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance and Happy New Year!

The piccy is the actual case.NOS Elgin type A- 11 case

I also have an Elgin A-11. It was issued to me by the U.S. Army Air Corps in 1943 when I was an Air Cadet. I still have it. I still wear it from time to time (g) and it still works. Every time I put it on I get visions of flack filled skies over the Ruhr valley and my B-26 crew, all gone now. Iam the last man standing.
