Hi 3Ters !

Lately, bullheads have caught my eye. I have just bought a (now discontinued) Zeno to add to the collection (wonder what it looks like on Omega mesh...???), but the Breitling Pupitre from the 80s has appeal, too.

My Q - how hard is it to source a Val 7740 to suit it, and what is the likely cost please? I see many NOS cases for sale, with or without handsets, with or without the dial - surely it isn't that hard to get a competent watchmaker to put the bits together and pay less than the bay sellers are aking for built up models face4.gif

Shoot me if you think I am being naive - because I did do a quick search and found no compatible 7740s... mistake.gif

What are your thoughts?
