molliFWM 0 Posted June 14, 2013 You would need a custom made movement holder cause of the small diameter and custom made hands or tube to fit the hands on that movement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J.Eric 701 Posted June 14, 2013 I have had great success using a Molnija 3601 or 3602. Look almost just like a Cortebet movement. And can be found rather cheap on the bay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gdp 0 Posted June 14, 2013 Thanks J. Eric, I'm very new to this and seeing some of the great projects others have done is inspiring me to give it a go, thanks for the advice about the Molnija 3601 or 3602 movements I have had a quick look on Ebay hopefully I'll be able to pick one up.
