niklas 0 Posted December 19, 2011 Evening Guys, So. I've had this skeletonized 6497 movement lying around. Originally bought it to practice disassembly, so it's been taken apart quite a few times, and never been used for it's proper purpose as is keeping time. I'm actually quite happy with it. Might also have something to do with the fact that I "know" the movement so well. One question for you guys; what color of strap would you choose? I'm leaning towards a genuine black croc strap. Next step is to buy the swiss version of the movement, and mount that in the case - Hopefully sometime next month :-) Some pics (should've cleaned the glass first of course): Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nisv 0 Posted December 19, 2011 Black strap is the way to go How much hazzle would it be to add roman numerals around it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
niklas 0 Posted December 19, 2011 I'm glad you think so! :-) You know - I actually thought about that. I haven't found one that fits. You're thinking about something like this right? It has to be a 37mm dial. Anyone knows where to look? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nisv 0 Posted December 19, 2011 Yes, but I would love for the ring to be transparent, "only" showing the roman numerals in let's say "silver" or "gold"....... :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
