You’re right about the bezel edges and that’s one of the things I will do in the future but for now I will give it some wrist time. 👍🏻

Here’s some recent photos of the 6538, still need to add some age to the bracelet but apart from that I’m happy with how it’s now Looking.

Having taken onboard advice this watch has now gone back to the drawing board and at the moment is work in progress.

Hi just wondering ( please tell me they are ) still available in old radium for 2824 movement. If they are how do I purchase them ?

Hi everyone Just a quick write up about a build I just finished, always liked the look of the big crown Submariner and with a gen example being totally out of my budget decided to build one instead. Here’s a list of parts used. Raffles 6538 case ( aged in the usual box of bolts etc way ) Raffles 4 line gilt dial ( aged with water colour paint and tamiya weathering powders ) Raffles golden submariner hands ( aged again with water colour paint and weathering powders ) Raffles bezel insert ( aged with bleach and scuffs ) Sellita SW200 no date movement ( no ghost setting for a date change ) Bond strap I still need to dull the hands a bit more as they’re just a bit too shiny but apart from that I’m happy with the result. I may also try it with an aged rivet bracelet to see which I prefer. Can anyone help with where to get an aged lime pearl from ?

Hi, thanks for the feedback, the cyclops is centered ok it’s just the angle of the photo that makes it look a little off. Hi, thanks for the feedback, I agree that it would probably look better without the cyclops ( I’m not really a fan of them myself ) but I wanted to keep it as close to the original watch as I could so that’s why I went with it.

By the way I know that the hands are a bit too short but they will be replaced when I find some genuine hands to use.
