"NOS" Franken Zodiac 844 Red Dot Diver
In Response To: "NOS" Franken Heuer Orange 844/3 FE4611A Diver ()

Along the lines of Peters Franken Heuer, I just finished putting together a Franken Zodiac in a sterile 844 case, used an ETA 2824-2 movement and an NOS Zodiac red dot dial with a set of vintage looking snowflake hands. I know it is not original but I wanted to see if I could do it and wanted a homage style Zodiac, I think it looks ok.
