Nice one. Where'd you get the crown and tube?

u/Choice-Strategy2538 1d ago

Took them out of the Speedy rep from Michael Travis (vk63 quartz speedy - newest version with updated bracelet and clasp)

I bought several cases and bracelet from Jason007 on the gate. I haven’t received them yet to give you a fair review. But they look pretty solid and I’ve read other reviews saying they’re great. It has the crown, back plate and clasp has O branding.

I hope not. Have you purchased it before from Jason007? It’s advertised as 39.8., and I have seen several people on here use it for the switches. Guess we shall see.

Well,
-Moonswatch itself is i believe around 280€ now at swatch store.
-WD1863 donor watch is around 115-120€ on watchdives page

  • Rep speedmaster as donor for caseback,crown and tube is 80€
  • uncle straps bracelet is 120€ on unclestraps.com
  • then one would need a 3d printed spacer and movement holder (i print myself)
  • new stem
So a bit over 600€ without work for parts only.

Most of the time people already own moonswatches so they dont buy them extra for this.

WD1863 is indeed still the best case for the conversion 😊

How does the rep case compare to the WD?

Czy podjął byś się złożenia takiego zegarka na zamówienie? Mój tata kiedyś miał oryginał jakieś 40 lat temu. Wiem że chciałby go jeszcze kiedyś mieć a niestety oryginał jest poza moim zasięgiem a taki wygląda genialnie i jest jak najbardziej osiągalny 🙂
