Also joining the jumbo club, with this quite rare crosshair 14777. The crown is yet not satisfying, also in need of a original beads of rice 19mm bracelet.
Lovely mint dial, serial number 19million range. Case in fine and sharp condition! Dreamed a long time of this one as the 14393 a bit to small for my wrist.
14777 vs 14393
Cheers
Congratulations on your Jumbo. Why not sourcing a genuine BoR for your 14777?
My 168.001 was lately fitted with a generic BoR, bought for 25USD off the Bay. Lots of trimming to make end links properly seated in.
I sourced already a decagonal crown, but somehow it doesnt fit properly (seems to short for the stem). A Omega BoR with 17 Endlinks im trying to source atm, but as you said, they are hard to find.
The stems are adjusted for every reference, they’re only specific for a movement, not for a case. So a certain crown might command a slightly longer stem than another one, even though they’re both on identical cases and movements. Not uncommon at all, just get a new stem (<20$ on eBay, usually) and have it shortened for your new crown.
