Mirage 0 Posted June 1, 2012 278 from Rochet was the damage for this piece. I am wearing it right now! Love it. It needs a nice ammo style strap and it will be stunning! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neil 0 Posted June 1, 2012 Was that a Swiss movement too or just ETA engraved on the rotor? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

k3rm87 180 Posted June 4, 2012 Good on you replica from down under! I like the flight deck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mirage 0 Posted June 4, 2012 (edited) that's it, I am buying a U-boat right now! Going the flightdeck If you dont own a U-Boat Flight deck A7750 yet, you will be amazingly surprised by the quality of the manufacturing. Strap Is really not good, but the watch itself is very nicely made. Edited June 4, 2012 by Mirage Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mirage 0 Posted June 4, 2012 I wish I could handle a Gen for a couple of minutes, just to see what are the flaws else than the ones we already know about: - U-Boat postion on the dial - Lume - Strap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jigsaw 0 Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) Very nice. I just picked up a franken 50mm Flightdeck CAS3 on another board. It basically has the gen movement (Swiss ETA 7750), plus gen dial, hands, and strap - so basically only the case is rep. Unfortunately the movement has a sterile ETA rotor, hopefully I can source a spare decorated rep rotor from a TD. The rep dial is pretty good, took me a while to see the differences compared with the gen. I'm sure the lume is obvious in person but hard to assess in photos.

Mirage 0 Posted July 30, 2012 Thanks Jigsaw! If you have the chance, please post some pics of your franken! Do you know where I could source gen parts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
