Hey guys,

has anyone bought the "new" blue dialed YM in Angus' Site? The blue dial really got me and I was wondering if you have some pictures..

Looks pretty good imho. Price tag is alright but I'd like to see some pictures in the sunlight for example

I'd appreciate it.

Old picture but the same watch I'm wearing today

I believe we have a winner

2 fantastic builds. Nice !

simply awesome

Absolutely astounding! Is that Akira's handiwork?

One of us is gonna have to get him drunk and figure out how he does this!

Yes it's Akira's work indeed!

Haha good idea

Imho this watch deserves a thread since it's the only rep dial which has been modded to have a tropical look.

I've done quite a bit of research on no crown guards Submariners lately.

A thought was building a franken by using Phong's midcase, ETA 2846, Minq dial... Well maybe in sooner or further future.

I ended up getting this a lot more inexpensive version of the 6538. A Phong franken would've easily set me 1800€ back if not even more.

At first when it arrived yesterday I thought hmm cool watch but I'm not really feeling the love. I was sitting at the dining table and was opening

the parcel when a light ray was shining inside.. And there I saw it. This was awesome, everything I was hoping for when I bought this watch.

The tropical dial has got so many facets depending on different lighting and surrounding. It's simply astonishing.

Ingredients:

Cartel 6538 Sub with clone 2836 movement

Sternkreuz Tropic shaved to correct height and fitted

Athaya Brevet crown and tube (case redrilled to fit Athaya tube into the case)

Lug holes drilled to accept gen spec spring bars

Hands and dial relumed

Dial aged and treated to a tropical brown

Insert aged

Case aged and polished

Rivet bracelet

Hope you liked it 

Very nice msp!!

Thanks alot, cc !
