Earliest Ones (Chronomatics) Have the "Big Ears"
In Response To: Re: Put Together or Replacement Parts ()

I am not sure whether it is the cut of the cases, or the construction of the pushers, but you will see the "big ears" on the Chronomatics (earliest 1163s) and perhaps some of the early 1163 MHs.

Ironically, there's big value in these big ears!!
