That is a well chosen trio... Great job! 201A FTW...

Looks slick Marty!

I forgot to mention... Keep an eye on them as painted hands will begin to bubble if left in too long!

Hey Marty... I know many guy's have used Cigar smoke. I hate Cigar's so I have never tried it. I know you are most likely talking Pre-A and Pre-V but I used a short session in a toaster oven for these...

Wow! I can't imagine a REAL watchsmith not knowing what is wrong with a 6497... I hope it works out for you Bro!

Straight up G! As a matter of fact, it might have been sold at least once and returned for the same reason...

Whacky Tobaccy...

If it is the one I am thinking about, send it back to him and get your $$ back!

I concur... Fiddy case (not sure if DSN). Like PSoC mentioned the CG, CB, crown and plexy are most positively DSN...

No clue... Buy it looks GREAT!

Thanks for all the leg work thus far! The future of the Pre-V Rep-world lies in your capable hands...

Pretty much as good as it gets right there... Bravo!

You know I love these G! The straps set them both off in style. Top qulaity builds deserve top quality straps...

Crap... Sorry! My bad, meant without L. Sure do love this dial!

Two of THE nicest examples... Never get tired of looking at them! Great job Bro!

Great stuff P! A few tweaks and it will be PERFECT! And as Miles mentioned, a run without the Swiss text will open the door to more sales of the dial.

Primo! Cal-assic combo... The new dial will complete it as the stitch will match the gold outer dial ring. Well chosen!

D... Not sure how the he// I missed this Bro!!!!!! Looks great of course Enjoy my friend!

D... What is that from Bro???? I don't remember anything in the center at all...

Cool! Fun town, on a hot summer day you can hit the Dell's... You will love this build Bro! I have had and sold 3 now that were basically the same. The 3 dumbest things I have ever done... There will be a 4th!

Vly... You are good to go with what you have! Hit eBay, Otto or T for the Swiss 6497. The only way you will beat it is by sending it to The Zigmeister for tritium treatment or substituting a Gen part...

Ohhhhhhh Yaaaaaaaa!

Great gesture Sox! Your info is dead on... There has been lots of talk lately about the fantastic results with TS-80. As far as your 201a dial is concerned it is typical of FGD's. I have had 3 or 4 so far and all have the vertical pattern. One of them I had was matt sprayed and it was crazy beautiful! I think you will be quite happy with the results...
