I think the movement parts i can manage to have manufactured or adapted but what i really wanted was a good case (mine has two broken/missing lugs that i might need to make and then weld) and also the hands.

Just the pics. I had a parts watch just a few months ago which I sold at a loss, too bad. We could have had one good one.

Thanks Zaf.

Here are some part watches that i have at the moment (that i remember), so if you have parts of the same watches, maybe we can put them all together.

- Constellation 561 - many parts, cases and dials
- Vulcain Nautical Alarm (just missing the back)
- Movado Ermetto
- Lecoultre auto w/reserve (powermatic)missing case.
- Lecoultre mariner cal 880 auto missing case
- Longines 9L movements (missing case and some the balance)
- Omega cases and dials
- Ulysse Nardin auto 21 jewels missing case
- Titus chrono Landeron cal? missing case

And more that i cant remember.

regards

The only thing that may work is the 561 Constellation. I also may have a Longines 9L case.
