hes done it before .but removing the insert is the only hard part.we can mount the bezel assembly on the v3 in one peice easily just push in place but it will squash the bezel gasket causing the bezel to sit low.and not turn super tight.so we have dismantling it and put it together on the v3.all good it will be finished soon.the second 116610 true super franken.i want the bezel to be super solid,no play whatsoever,if you just push it on all assembled it rocks about
my modder don't speak amazing english,basically he has a v3 with gen everything,he put together himself,so i gave him my v3 and sll parts and said build please.i thought he would just push the assembly on the v3 in one peice,but he said no it won't work because it can squash the gasket .ill tey and find the exact reason why he said the insert must be removed from the bezel assembly,stainless steel should know as he is a modder,perhaps he will chime in.and misikped
misikped are the gen bezel gaskets hard to source ,can we use the rep gasket with the gen assembly ?only reason i ask is if i want to dismantle my franken and put the parts on a different case if a new better case comes out
im not sure but he said it must be dissasembleed ,and the ceramic insert has to be removed.he said its was very lucky how he removeed the insert,he is working on mine now im [censored] shitting it.also he said when the v4 is available we can't easily swap our gen bezel insert onto the next watch as its soo risky removing insert.the ceramic insert is 2mm thick lol.the rep bp insert its 5 times thicker and ive even cracked a bp insert in the past
bad news guys the ceramic insert needs to be removed,infact the bezel assembly needs taking apart to fit to the crappy v3.and he said its a very very risky job.he has done his own. And will try mine but its hella risky
its a paper nail file with very very very fine sandpaper.so fine it barely leaves a mark on the metal.but i only took off 0.01 mm probably.off the bottom cg
yes paper nail file my mums it took 2 minutes.i used cape cod to polish it looks beautiful.im ocd and as everyone knows i need perfect cg lol.anyway massive photo shoot when all gen parts are installed.im sending it tomorrow to be built
ive done my first bit of case modding.i evened the cg to make perfect,as u guys know all v3 have slightly uneven cg.ive had 10 all the same.i used a nail file,took 2 minutes to do,also have sunken my sel,so i will install bezel,dial,and crystal tomorrow
depending on what sites some use v2 pics.just buy from toro,tony,trev they all have 2836 .i have 3135 and it looks surprisingly good lol.not that far off from a 3135 lol,its been improved over the old decorated 2836 from a while back definitely
the noob v3 is not available in 3135 anymore,only 2836 as far as im aware.try toro,trevor,tony.i think all other tds like angus,sead,ryan,ts are all out of stock.at first i hated my 3135 but when i opened it ,it looks really nice lol
