exeekias

Hi,

I posted this on RWI a couple days ago, and I don't normally cross-post things, but Chieftang suggested I post it here as well, so here goes. I figure maybe some of you might be interested but don't read RWI. Hope you like it.

Here's my franken VC Overseas project.

It started life as the "non-Silix" eta version, the one without AR. The watch now has the following mods:

-Gen dial and hands (hour & minute hands, the second hand is still the rep)

-ETA 7750 date wheel (per this post: http://www.replica-watch.info/phpBB3/viewt...=54&t=51615)

-Chief AR

It took a while to get it all done and put back together, but...well, you all can judge the result. I'm happy. Now on to the eyecandy:

I just had to pick up a gen box for this one, so here's the finished watch in its new home:

I also got a catalog:

Here are some shots showing off the awesome AR from Chieftang:

A wristie:

I finally was able to take a halfway decent lume shot:

And last: a before and after pic. The rep dial isn't bad at all, but it really looks very different than the gen when they are side by side.

Big thanks go to d4m, ar0401 for his help and advice in doing the dial mod, and to Chieftang for the awesome AR. Thanks guys!

It'll never happen I'm sure, but I'd love to see a rep of the old IWC PD moonphase compass watch:

sure would be sweet to have a rep of that.

Very nice watch you have there.

I can't tell from the pics for sure, is there a magnifier in the date window? Is it set into the dial?

Just found this post. Really nice job on the VCO.

You should have got out your black pen and added an accent to "Gen

Thanks very much for the kind welcome

Hi all,

I have been somewhat active on another rep forum for a little while now so some of you might know me. Or not.

Figured I'd register on RWG as well; I heard the avatars are sexier here.

Anyway, It's nice to have another forum to feed the addiction.
