With thanks to SpeedyG for all of his incredible work and to DenimHead from RWG! SpeedyG did an incredible job, he even had to make a custom movement ring and dial support.
I present my most recent build:
This was a HR case set dial and hands from DenimHead. The strap shown is a Eulit Perlon.
I wondered who was going to pick that up. About the time I was going to pull the trigger I saw that it was sold. Nice pick up! Your pictures are outstanding. It is nice now, but I agree with all of droptopman's comments...MKII or III. I have a few Athaya and have compared them in person to my gens and they are a great alternative.
I love that creamy lume!
Maybe dbane can tell us about the brown leather couch?
(My guess is Italian leather...and that it will be turned into straps when you're finished with it!)
By the way, I love the strap and second hand!
