The future. Question: If you could travel in time when and where would you go?

Sad news indeed. Wishing you well on your journey.

Yes.

Beautiful watch and great photos!

Thanks. You might want to look at the minute hand too. You'll notice the lume fill area is pointed rather than squared off. They sell ETA sword hand sets at Helenarou: http://www.helenarou.com/5517-milsub-super-lume-watch-hands-correct-sec-tip-for-e551728242836.html

Nice job! Would also trim the tail of the second hand, the gen is much shorter. Gen: Here's mine:

Sounds like a good spec. Here's an update of mine. I used an Ingod dial in the end. However, don't think he's in business anymore. So you're probably better off going with a Yuki. I also went for a Michael Young T19 crystal rather than a Clark. You might want to consider an Athaya 702 crown and tube set rather than a gen.

Looks great!

As well as shaping the crown guards. I generally lower the height of the saddle between them ever so slightly. Countersink and re-tap the hole, then add an Athaya crown and tube. Naturally, I try and avoid taking anything off the top of crown guards. Not perfect, but close enough for me without the outlay of a phong case.

Sure, but you can shape them.

You can get them from most watch repair suppliers, even eBay: http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/131449944130?nav=SEARCH
