Hmmmm nice Mike , the Vertex was very popular over here, the brand was relaunched not so long back by the grandson of the guy that had a lot to do with their sales here. Nice Dennison case as well, whats the dial matey. Good alternative Mike so he can wear it until he can find or have one made in steel. -

It varies from 180 to 140. Sometimes 130. -
I too have a cal 59, but it's in a gold case with no movement ring. What I'd do is look for a job lot of movement rings on ebay, and tweak one to fit. They are easy to cut and bend, and you don't have to be exact on diameter as there is a cut out for the stem -

Well today was the day that we loaded the last stuff that we are getting rid of into a big skip that we hired to get rid of the spa bits. I pulled down my hanglider from storage in our garage and out with the spanners. The sail and some stuff that is not salvageable is all in the skip. The aluminium tubing and stainless brackets have all been reclaimed and have been stored. Why? I have been struggling to find the tubes that were demonstrated with the Joe Collins winder on YT anywhere, so I presume that they were made to suit. I haven't really been able to find any tube that I could use. I now have a plethora of tubing that is not just plain aluminium, but is aircraft grade aluminium and is a fair bit tougher. Different diameters as well so that is a bonus. Doesn't cover all the diameters of a set of spring C clamps, but beggars can't be choosers. I have already worked out what I am going to use some of the stainless for. I will attach it to my clock movement testing rig so I can then use the light gauge pulleys and ropes that I salvaged to set up a way for the clock movement rig to be pulled up to the ceiling when not required. I also have to route out some holes in the side panels of the rig so that pendulums can swing and so that I can see into the movements from the side. I really must take some other photos.
