Seems a bit expensive for a unknown vintage brand though.

EDIT: Landeron seem to be the e-bays own brand, a bit like Kemmners ....just as nice IMO - i think i might buy this case design and give it a go

I've seen that before....not bad looking at all, but I'm wondering what a 'Landeron Valjoux' is, as the mov't is obviously a Val 7733, and Landeron were movement makers in their own right back in the day, so has me a tad puzzled!!

Not sure but in the description it is just described as a valjoux 7733.

I think this case and dial would fit a seagull ST19, Does anyone know a seller for these movements? I've looked around the usual sites (getat, rafflestime etc), failing that....where can one find a 7733/34 for sale? Think that Dodane style of vintage pilot look is superb.

Excellent work androo. Brave of you to fiddle around with those miniscule components and the end result looks good- apart from the wonky day!

Thanks for the links- I am still hoping to build my own hand-wound and I am just waiting for a chap to get his act together and open up the case of a pocket watch here in Hastings. If it contains a unitas, I am good to go. If not, I may well get one from the ebay seller you provided the link to. Then onto sourcing a radiomir case and hands and off we go!

Someone has far too much spare time on his hands....

One of these days i might give it a go. You'll know when 'cause the swearing will be able to be heard far & wide!
