... most Radiomir's are 45mm case, most Luminor's are 44mm. They're devoid of tachy scales etc, a lot just have 12,3,6,9 on the dial, they're clean and classy looking but best of all, they're as cool as hell!

: Hi all. Ok I know this is going to be one hell of a contentious
: issue - however I have a very good friend (and fellow musician)
: who has very large hands and a small budget who wants to get
: into the vintage watch game. I have of course tried to hip him
: to the Heuer ethic and have tried to woo him with my Autavia's
: and my Carrera 2447 etc etc...but to no avail. He is a stoic
: chap who knows what he wants ("I don't want any of those
: numbers around the dial") so that means no bezels. It also
: means the case has to be 42mm. So that means a re-cased pocket
: watch. He loves the bauhaus ethic, and wants a clean big dial,
: in a vintage hue. I know there are some good re-casing guys out
: there. Can anyone put me in touch with a good person who could
: re-case a lovely pocket watch and give it some new life.
: As always many thanks for input - Nathan
