Still wearing this 16610.

The bevels can be added to the date window, them refinish the dial. Wear it daily and without fear to get the aging.

Happy happy birthday Red!

The 2813 is actually a clone of the miyota 8215 movement. Hacking and bph at 2160. The gmt DG3804 is not bad at all. Just be careful with the keyless.

Maybe gen ETA movement? Lol. That is definitely not a gen setup

Subbie day. Three days straight.

I would love to see side shots of the noob bezel/rehaut area against the gen. Thanks for sharing brother. E

Glad to hear it. Pictures?

Early 16610 Franken for me today.

That's what I thought. I was hoping there was a revision 2 available with gen like bezel construction.

Very nice indeed. I would love to see a picture of the bezel assembly off the case(Tiger case) just to compare. Good source of parts for sure Adrian and thanks for sharing. E

Interesting. Will you be using your brevet crown in the build Adrian?

How's the bezel construction on the Tiger one?

Cool. That's one of the most tricky parts. To be able to bevel the outer hole just so. The ST case definitely does not come beveled, but if you polish it enough, it gets that natural edge to it. Been busy but as promised, I will have a nice comparison of cases and dials. @TX, I'm an a$$hole. I didn't say anything about the grandkid, although I read posts about it. I just logged on the computer and saw the pictures. Cograts on little baby Jade man!

Which angle bit did you use/ Just curious.

The new 27" with i7 core is not a bad unit to get. You can max out the ram yourself to 16gb for less than 150 dollars. The side profile of the ones is ridiculous. I say do it! I have something very similar, but with the old case design.

I have to warn, if the modder doesn't have steady hands and the right bit, it can get nasty. I have received cases with bits in them and gauges around the holes.

That is a nice dial indeed. Diameter?

Love it! Love the SS links. Nice accent

I had the weirdest error when trying to do this. I wonder if we can do something like a shop? 20 dollar bumper sticker or something.

I have a few gen inserts with nice patina'd pearls that work very well. The "anonymous" inserts are not too bad for a modern build, just need a pearl change. The TC assembly is not bad, but the installation can be tricky, just MHO

Dig it!

Wow! I cannot wait to get mine started. How's the crystal under water Mel?

TC v5 with TC's 2824-2 movement and BC over under in a snowy NY morning.

The 93150 I'm using is I believe an older version of the cartel one. Has the flat 3 and a nice rounded link construction. With gen end links and a nice gen clasp, there is no need for a complete gen bracelet, unless your OCD just can't handle it anymore. For the SEL, TCs bracelets are very, very good, although the V3 is better overall IMHO I think it was Freddy who wrote it here, "Pick a year, and go with it for inspiration" I could be wrong though
