I recently built this and a few others. They vary in many ways. I think most would agree there are 3 general tiers of building reps and very directional price ranges, YMMV. 1. Beginner Build: Buy a basic cartel watch. Fade the bezel, soften the case and maybe age the dial a bit. $150 to $350 depending on mods or DIY 2. Intermediate build: Cartel watch as base and then do the above stepsm. In addition, Shape the lugs, Cgs. Age dial, relume both dial and hands. Add better crown and crystal. $150 to $600 ish. 3. Advanced Build: Get gen spec case and dial. Do the steps above. Then I see people add gen, crystal and crown. If you go all the way, one might add gen movement and hands. $1200+ Some more examples of beginner to intermediate builds. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Pathetic still looks good [emoji23] I also made a similar effort on 30 dollar raffles dial. Considering the starting state, I say it's wearable. Thoughts? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

I know this is an old post! I'm thinking of a similar build. I thought Tiger only took 29mm dials while 5508 dials are 27.x mm. Is that not the case? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Fairly new in the game here. Been collecting reps for a few years but slowly getting into Frankens. Heard about TC and BK earlier this year and got the bug since then. After a month and a half wait I finally got my TC v6 . The itch was so bad that in those 45 days or so I got a ZF v3 Tudor BB and a Franken Tudor 9210.0 from a member. Through my journey of tastefully modded subs, I ran into the challenge of finding proper #watchporn for TC subs... When the wait began all I sought after were some delicious TC PICS... Now that I got one.. I still have the bad habit of scouring the forums for some more pics .. For those soon to be TC members, I can only imagine the insatiable need for more #wristporn .
