Assistance with a Rafflesdial build

Recommended Posts

NH_Vintage

I'm looking for someone in the UK willing to assist me in building a 16233 Based around Rafflesdials parts and a GEN Datejust dial.

I unfortunately don't have the knowledge nor the steady hand to undertake this myself, so would love to hear you guys recommendations on who I could turn to to execute my plan.

TIA

What's your problem with the build?

Not a problem so much, more I'd feel far more comfortable having someone with far more knowledge than me to physically build it for me, ideally someone that can also check over the movement and make sure that's clean and running well.

The other issue is receiving contradicting info as to  what will fit/won't.

The most difficult part is to find a movement that match dial feet position. Unless you buy a clone movement too, you watchsmith have to cut and solder new feet, other than that is just a normal assembly.
