      You absolutely need to share if you find any ETA swords. Rhory and I both have struck out in that front.
      You can fit the hours and minutes of an NH35 hands set perfectly fine to an ETA, will sit nicely firm. The other way around can sooner give snugness problems (but is also not impossible) only the seconds hand needs to go from .20 to .25mm. This can be done by gently hand twisting a .25mm tungsten drill bit in the hole, but not 100% through. The last bit best take a 0.20mm bit and very gently twist it whilst holding very slight tension to the side, to ream the hole slightly. This should provide a snug fit.

      Your absolutely right, I completely forgot about that. I was Amy's having to close up eta heads in a Seiko, but didn't even think about it going the other way.

      It's much easier to find a single ETA seconds hand that world match fine with the swords.

      Thanks!

      This is genius, I think knowing that bit of info will bring us closer to making a gilty milsub a reality! Seriously, so many good nuggets of information here, you guys could probably write a book on watchmaking and modding.
      Our plant based pizza, doctors orders three years ago for my wife and we're enjoying the benefits, can't deny that!

      I was skeptical at first, but give cauliflower pizza crust a try if you haven't already. Pretty darn good! Oh, and I've just discovered a local vegan place that makes cinnamon rolls completely out of yam flour, with no sugar added. I;m not vegan, but I kid you not, it tastes and has the same texture as a wheat based flour cinnamon roll, I could not tell the difference!
