  1. Carbon fiber as well.. that dial is just a single layer thick. The watch is set up as a lefty and I swapped in an ETA 2836. I couldn't find lefty date wheels so instead I placed the date at 4:00ish position 231.43 degrees clockwise from the crown. I'm just getting it ready to deliver will take some more pics before I ship.
  2. The carbon can be sealed with a thin coat of clear epoxy resin which would also do very well for scratch resistance. This can be hand applied, cut, buffed, polished or sprayed in light coats for a matte finish. You can also spray a coat of acrylate (crazy glue) which soaks into the cf and gives a nice scratch resistant finish. I have no interest in repping AP cases but I'll try a proof of concept with some thick pieces of carbon I have laying around. I do have a little experience with this sort of thing, this is a solid CF bezel insert for a custom maratec:
  3. A handful of recent projects.. hopefully now that the holiday rush is over I'll have time to actually organize a web site and some new projects.
  4. Just trolling this thread.. if anyone is close to a nandos please have an order of chicken livers for me.. mmmmmm...
  5. How about a 202a? If you are gonna own a dsn it might as well be a PVD watch
  6. This looke EXACTLY like the watch I picked up on canal street for $40 but with sapphire and AR. With that huge second hand and low vph it might as well have a quartz movement!
  7. haha never discount the value of "patina" and "charm" when it comes to watches. Whats more charming then the makers blood, sweat, tears or even prints permanently emblazoned on the watch? Just as long as someone doesn't figure out a way to crop out my prints and run my name for warrants is all good!
  8. that finish is all applied.. this is the raw dial goes into one of these
  9. a real beauty.. enjoy it!
  10. Those watches on his web site.. make me want to kill people and set fires.
  11. what would really help your standing would be a special sale for forum members.. hint hint
