So I've happened upon a nos 2921 case and was thinking of transplanting a 501 dial and movement into it from a 2846.

What are peoples thoughts on me doing this?

The movement is right but would I be making a Franken watch?

Yep 👎

But it will only be your problem as long as it remains your property. Your watch, you decide.
