This is my first River 6154. The required look was old but cared for, not overly abused. Parts: River 6154 case set (softened and shaped slightly by me ) River stock crown, softened and aged. River stock rear plexi yellowed and aged. River front stock plexi aged slightly. Movement ring is modified from an Athaya moly ring for a silix 6154, needed to be sanded on the outside and height dropped. It has also been treated with a salt / lemon / vinegar bath to age it and some beautiful green patina formed. Athaya hands ( aged and lumed by me ) Athaya RP dial ( Painted by me ) Lumed with Cornholio's vintage lume. Molnija 3601 seconds trimmed ( cleaned and serviced by me ) (thanks Tanukjaju for the help and advice :thumbup: ) I'm using a sanded and slightly thinned moly dial as a back plate for the dial to raise the stem a little. It's still got it's pins so it's locked in to place and the Athaya dial is attached with dial tabs.

Legend, you could not be more correct. I have always felt the same about reps and how you carry yourself, and have commented on this view in this forum often. It's funny how basic common sense is not all that common.

I really like my watches and don't wear them to make any kind of impression to anyone, so I wear whatever I want, whenever I want. If anyone else feels differently, I think they've just bought into the world of vanity. Nothing wrong with that if that's what they want to do, but its not for me, and its not the only option.

Keeping fingers crossed that everything will be fine for you in the end! And also that these annoying crackdown/anti-counterfeit-weeks will finish soon...

You're still alive! Yesss!
