Finished up my BC

Mike just sent me some pics. All I can say is WOW! Mike is a total professional.

Wow ! This is a stunning silix mod. I love everything from lugs to bezel. I thought mine was beautiful, yours is splendid.

Beautiful work. You are an artist!

Haven't worn this one in a looooong time!! Well modded with a 2893-2 motor

@jackflash, great shot! You even matched the time up. You really do some amazing work on your builds [emoji122]🏻.

Michael is a really great guy and awesome at what he does, but....C'Mon Man. @ceejay I believe this combination is possible. 1966 was the transitional year so you see both gilt and matte dials with both big and little GMT hands. Guessing this is a 66 or early 67.

Amazing, bro!!!

Wow, that is incredible. That plexi is lookin sexi! Those hands are a perfect match. Mike did incredible work for you. You'll have to celebrate with a great cigar and a good glass of bourbon when you get it back. You know we are all expecting a full photo spread when you get it back. Congrats on a beautiful new gem!

Many watches similar to this are called 'train watches' and were not RR approved but looked like RR watches. Yours may or may not be one of them. I do not recognize the brand logo but someone on the forum might. Most RR approved watches will be 18 or 16 size, 21 jewels, adjusted, usually lever set (not pendant set), and have a serial numbered movement with all claims engraved...jewel count, adjustment etc. Most will be in yellow or white gold filled cases, a few in stainless steel, silver, German silver, Silveroid, or chrome plated.. very few in solid gold. Different RR companies had different requirements and some even accepted 17 jewel pendent set watches commonly known as 'transportation watches'. Open the watch up and see what type of movement it has. RR approved pocket watches such as BW Raymond (Elgin), Waltham Crescent Street, Hamilton 992 and 992B all have finely decorated movements, adjusted, lever set etc. On lever set PW you have to unscrew the bezel and pull a small lever out and set the time with the crown. The crown does not click in and out of setting position like a standard PW or wristwatch. I have one similar to yours and it is branded 'Baylor' (Zale Royal Jewelers USA), has a Unitas 6497 (now called Eta 6497) and was made in the early 1970s with a train engraved on the chrome plated case. It needs c/o now but ran within 10 or 12 seconds a day for years. I paid $39 for it new in 1974 in Bristol TN, USA. http://www.pocketwatchrepair.com/how-to/case-material.php

Sorry no idea but looks pretty cool, no markings names at all on it If so maybe have to open case look at movement.

Hi Guys. So picked her up this morning. At the office so do not have a lot of time to mess with it, but just a quick dremel job with poly watch on the plexi and a little detail job and looks much better. Pretty happy with it. Bracelet is really worn out. Needs a new clasp for sure, it is paper thin. Not sure if MY can fix up the rest of it, I will reach out to him. Case is OK, dial is great, hands are so so, probably going to replace them. Lugs a little uneven, but decent. Probably just go with a light brush and polish, a new pearl for the insert (or use my other MKIII), a super dome and a service. Although she is keeping good time.
