Hi
I've recently bought a carrera dial as I've been planning on doing a frakenwatch for my self to wear (Not sell). I hope to eventually get real parts for the whole watch but in the mean time I'll settle for lesser models. I've read the article on poor mans carreras so I know the watches to look out for. I was wondering which is the best watch to use as a doner? The Clebar, Traditional or Zodiac? The cases don't seem to look right so I also have the option to buy a tag carrera case. Would this take the older carrera dial and, say, zodiac movment?
The link is to show the dial type I have. It's identical apart from the red numbers. On mine they're all black
below is a bay item number for a possible cheap donor
5020896857 Kelik
What do you think.
BTW What movement does the carrera 45 take?
thanks in advance.
Jamie.
