Oh well, my current collection right now is a watch offered by the RWG community and another by one member of RWG Monsieur By-Tor 😍 My life has been a rollercoaster, due to my inability to cope with it, so I sold all the gens, the reps and the modified ones too...(some I could not sell as they are not worth the trouble to fix for the recipient though). As we speak, one is in a good friend's hands to fit some parts I still had around. The virus of collecting more is gone anyway. Wearing the gifts is another story: gratitude to be able to wear the design I like (Rolex 5513) and feel the kindness behind it ❤️ Priceless ! Be well!

Well yeah, and you'd need 8 more links to get it around your Popeye like forearms. [emoji1377][emoji1377]

Glad to see you back posting again B-T. I have a DJ2 that’s in the EU and available if you want to try it out.

I’ve been on the forums for a few years now and owned most of my desired watches (most but not all). Whilst I’ve fallen into the same trap as many here - chasing the perfection of the gen, I sometimes get the bug to do it differently. Hence, I like to change some of my watches away from the manufacturers specification to something that I desire. I’d say there is no right or wrong here, gen owners do it too, but it’s not something I often see on the forums. Why is that? Is it because the OEM spec gen is the grail? My rep modded Seamaster GMT - built by @SSTEEL using a PO bezel and a Parnis insert. I may go back to the lollipop second hand though. Another modded away from gen spec by @SSTEEL A Seamaster Chrono withblack date wheel, stainless clock hands and red chronograph hands. 2XAR and a ceramic insert fish it off for me. And yet another Micky build. A closed factory case with a gen relumed Omega dial, cut PO second hand 2XAR, PO bezel and insert. My favourite watch still. Franken not modded? Built to OEM spec by Micky using gen relumed dial and hands, gen bezel and insert too along with profsteve’s 2XAR on the crystal. Really pops. Anyone one else do anything similar?
