    Hi guys, I'm writing an article on the 3705 pilot. I'm in desperate need of any old advertisements and I cannot for the life of me find any.

    Doe anyone know of any 3705 Advertisement images? I would greatly appreciate any help.

    As a "survivor" of that era, I never saw one, but there are pages in the catalogs if I recall.

    Interesting, but it incluses an essential mistake.

    The ref. 3705 has an ETA 7750 based movement.

    NOT a Lemania 7902 :-)

    Regards

    HEBE

    P.S. Are you interested in Lemania calibers ?

    Probably not of great help, but maybe I thought you'd be interested

    HEBE, can you please explain me why there is a Lemania inside the 3705 housing? (hasn't it always been a mod. Valjoux 7750 all the time?)
    Even for illustration purpose I don't get it. Why not showing the Lemania caliber inside a moonwatch for instance? I love your photoshop skills but this is really confusing to me.

    Okay, this Photoshop arrangement is for Mark, because I think he has experience with Lemania movements :-)

    SURE all ref. 3705 have those ETA based automatic movements.

    I think the originate watch with that Lemania will confuse as well.

    But here it is, my only blue dialed :-)

    I'm relieved now :-)
    With all due respect, I think you should avoid doing such marriages unless it's clearly stated that it's not a real picture.
    Your montage is so good, I fear the day someone will claim that there is indeed a 3705 with a Lemania (showing your picture), adding Mark's clipping to prove his point.
    Apart from that, I like your blue dial very much!

    [u][b]It is NOT a mariage and NOT a montage !!!

    A real SINN limited edition [/b]![/u]

    But as I stated, it will confuse, but you wanted :-)

    I'm lost now.
    I think we don't speak about the same picture.

    I was referring to this one:
    i1078.photobucket.com/albums/w499/123chrono/Capture%20drsquoeacutecran%202015-12-15%20agrave%2012.49.23_zpsxihw0mec.png
    The point was to prove the housing was the same (I 180° reversed it so it's clear)
    On the left, the original 3705 with Valjoux, on the right, the 3705 housing with a photoshopped caliber, switching from 7750 to a Lemania.

    It is though clear that the Sinn seen from different p.o.v. is not a marriage.

    Thanks Heiko,
    A wonderful piece of fun :o)
    The Lemania (Omega Cal 861) is a beautiful piece of work.
    I think most lament the loss of the column wheel from Cal 321.
    Your image manipulation skills are fantastic.

    Well, an Apple and a tool that works :-)
