    No its just a hobby for me, I did mean $1000's my mistake.
    Unless you get all chinese tools maybe :D

    I can't think of any other way to work out the dimensions of these second hands on cousins, if you throw an omega part number into google you get 1 single hit and its a pdf of A parts price list for some shop in france.
    It's like a secret society or something, I bet you guys have your own secret hand shakes ::weird::

    The Extranet is an odd system - there are several ways to search for something, so I used the reverse tactic. I search for the Cal. 351 movement, and then used the related search feature to search for hands for the 351. The search came up with "no results found" so there are no 351 hands at all in the system.

    The best way for you to search this is to look for Omega movements where the post size is the same as the Cal. 351, and then search those movement on Cousins to see if there is a hands that works. I would not be too concerned about the length - if you are painting it anyway, then you can simply cut it to the right length and stone the end of the hand to make it look factory - have done this before with good results.

    Cheers, Al

    All these movements have the same pinion sizes so at least its a more common size.
    350, 351, 352, 353, 354, 355, 370, 371, 372, 420, 470, 471, 500, 501, 502, 503, 504, 505, 520, 550, 551, 552, 560, 561, 562, 570, 571, 591, 600, 610


    Unfortunately cousins only show hands that match case numbers not movements.
    But I can probably link case numbers to movements somewhere so all is not lost.

    Thanks for the idea.

    They do show them as parts, listed under the movement calibre. Just look under Watch Parts, Watch Parts Branded, Omega, Omega Movement Parts - enter the calibre in the mandatory field and click search all. About half way down the list are the hands.
