Did you ever get around to find a glass case back that fits?

I've recently acquired the 67-9119 and I'm gonna custom make a dial(carbon fibre). Just wanting to know, how hard is it to correctly repress the hands? I'm thinking once you reset the chrono, the seconds and the sub hands will be quite easy to put back in the correct position. It's the min and hour hands, since there is no seconds hand. How did you go about this?

And is it possible to source new badges and hour markers?

That's my watch which I shall be receiving sometime this week. Looks like the paint for the seconds and sub dials have faded or something. Will go ahead with repainting these in yellow and may possibly relume it as well.

Anyway, I haven't seen the backside of the dial. Would you have a picture somewhere? If not, how is it held onto the movement?

That crown rotates the internal bezel. However, that crown is stuck and there is no gear connecting it to the bezel. So basically it is stuck in that position.

Bob, a sharpi works great. You might see it with the eye if your looking for it. The chipping part is where the jurys still out.
An interesting thing i've learned with these watches, and the other 8110a models ive worked on, is some have metal movement holders and some have plastic.
The metal ones work way better and are actually held in by screws and clamps where the plastic one just snaps on.
The plastic ones don't hold the movement in the case nearly as securely as the metal ones, and as a result the dial will move and the inner bezel will rub the paint off of it. 31
Screws and clamps? Mines got a metal movement holder, but its only put into place. Theres nothing holding it in, and the movement is quite loose inside it.

And PM sent about a service for mine.

If you've got a suction cup, its possible to suck of the glass. Or remove the movement and you can push out the crystal.

It sounds like that hand wasn't placed at 12 o'clock at neutral. Remove it, then set the watch to neutral. Then place the hand back at 12 o'clock. If that doesn't work, then your hand is loose.
