Hi everyone

I have been posting much, have a lot going on...

but I finally was going thur some boxes ... I came across an early 2179 , no /# case marked intel tablet 2179 , outside back case signed Omega and waterproof in a circular fashion ....old school like. 1939/40 ... I also found a not perfect 2410 steel case for a sweep second 30 mm chronometre .... I ask found a second movement ( 30 mm , sub seconds ...).
So I played around firt pic is of the dial and movement from the 2179 and I mounted in the 2410 case .... then I put that sweep second movement and dial back in it’s 2179 case and the. Put the sub seconds dial and movement in the 2410 case ..

which one do you like ?
Watch combo A. ( 2179 dial/ movement in 2410 case )



Or
Watch b 2179 with its dial and movement....



Caseback of early 2179




watch combo c I had this other 30 mm movement and dial and dropped it into the 2410 case ....




I gota say the 2410 case is one of my favorites in any case .... hahaha or should I say the 2410 is cb one of my favorite cases with any dial !

Good Hunting

Bill

Wonderful, if you have parts like these to just play around a little bit. 😀

I think combo A suits best...

my nod goes to the sub-second dial jobbie. those art-deco numbers are spectacular. just take a look at that numeral 4!

I too concur with A as being my first favorite, but the more I look at C the more I like it...i'm a sucker for all Arabic numerals sometimes. 🙄

Really nice work!

Hello Bill
My vote for the real and perfect cased 2179. The second one.
The strap... maybe another; something vintage but not as classic than yours.
Sorry, it's only my opinion. 👍

Hi Germanicus

I love the "Combo A" even more then "the real and perfect case 2179 "

P. S. Maybe this 2179 case needs another lover, a Spanish lover 😗😗😗
