Hi Gents,
Once a wise man wrote that "it's all about the dial". And I have to say, the further I went learning about BC the stronger that stance became... at least to me.
I had a long discussion with @Bart Cordell about his very good work on dial, case bevels, etc. So I asked him if he would take care of my Big. D's 6538 wich needed more work imo. And to make a long story short, this is the result:
Specs :
- 8mm V2 Athaya BC
- Case reshaped and polished, beveled chamfers, rehault polished to make it deeper,
- Bezel work: color and polished
- hour and minute hands, sanded and relume to match the dial, Tiger-Concept Big Ball second hand.
- True Gilt 2 liner super glossy dial (you have no idea what an improvment it is, as many had already stated, until you see/get one)
- Sternkreuz Hw 306 dome crystal
Bart was really dedicated to the modding process: he put a lot of time and efforts to get what I was precisely looking for. And that is really appreciable
Cheers!
