Congrats DB2!!! My Speedy has found a new home -enjoy!
A big thank you to Lanikai for putting this together, you are indeed the Rafflemeister! And thank you to all the participants for supporting this wondeful place we all call home.

Alligoat is right, keep it as it is. All 1655 reps leave a lot to be desired. I think the crystal looks okay -maybe not mag on the cyclops. The Omega Flightmaster hands mod that I stumbled onto probably won't work since the asian mvmt won't likely fit the hands.
If you can fit an ETA mvmt in the case it does open up more possibilities for you with mods; hands swap (but the GMT hand might be a problem) and better DW. Slartlibartfast has the great DW water decal technique with an 2836 ETA overlay. Click on my signature link for the Omega FM Hands if you can go the ETA route.
Good luck on the project!
Nice Gadgetman -I like the coffee lume dial tone!
A better insert with the correct lumidot will be a nice mod, you can bleach the insert a little (50% water/50% bleach for a few mintues at a time) to give it the lived in feel.
Yes, lets hear more about the Browning HP!
I'm a 5517 fan too....
My Sig had to stand in for a BHP since I don't own one!
