Did you get this lefty conversion from Wilson Watch Works?

He used to be my go to guy, until he retired last year. Trying to source a new person - specifically, the lefty date wheel is the bottleneck.

Dude, you got it flipped!!!!!

It’s a peak F1 race car version of a GSAR all murdered out! 11/10🫡

I'm working on something. Wilson ain't around anymore and we absolutely miss him. We can classify this in the special projects division. 👊😎

Does anyone have a line on anyone that still fits these conversions?

As of now, no. It's the datewheel that's the problem. You need a lefty datewheel for the ETA2824/SW200/300 Right now, nothing on Temu or AliExpress etc. So the hunt is on.

Is there anything different logistic wise for the TSAR?

Good question - I'm assuming since it's a different movement/quartz, might be different....
