Re: Welcome, Andy . . . The Man of the Hour!!

Hi Guys,

Thank you very much to you all for your warm welcome and for all the excellent information provided.

I have been amazed by the amount of knowledge available on the forum and I look forward to progressing the restoration of this interesting timepiece.

When I get the movement I will post some more photos.

Thank you,
Andy

: Congratulations Andy,

: And as it goes in Gold thats even better,

: How would one go about manufacturing a case?

: My thoughts are, like with old motors, some parts are obsolete and
: thus parts have to be made from scratch for the purpose. This is
: generally deemed ok. If Andy has the most important bits, then
: if a correct case is unobtainable would one manufactured to
: correct specifications be a viable option?

: Looking at the Gold Carreres its going to look great!

: congrats again
