Found a couple of great Walthams on the bay, so thought I'd continue my tinkering spree

Love these have you seen the ones done with 12 size A Lincoln Illinois movements? I almost bought a 12 size just to do this to it but even the 12 size Lincolns are getting pricey.I think they are 12 size? If I can find a cheap Lincoln or maybe a E. howard movement as a donor I'll have to get with you to help me out.
