·Dear all,
I am thinking about building a 166.024 ( Big triangle) and found a nice vintage set of hands for a 166.068 (SM Banana). The minute hand is a stick design, the hour hand has the sword design. Seconds hand has a drop end. I allready have a serviced 565, a proper dial and I‘m missing just the case, which to obtain will be a challange on its own.
I am aware that I a am building a franken watch which of course will be a keeper and not be sold, due to obvious reasons regarding originality.
Both watches share a cal. 565 and the hands of both watches look very similar to me.
My question is, if these hands are interchangeable regarding length and design. Pic of the set enclosed.
Thank you in advance, stay healthy and to all of you a nice 2024,
kind regards, Max
