There are those trademark bevels. Looks great already.

According to my closed 6 it is the 26...

Never saw this thread. Thanks for bumping it. I have seen lots of pics of your beautiful Pan Am 6542 and it is one of my favorite builds on any forum.

I have had some parts for a 6542 build for a while now, but still have not found a white dial I really like. Sooner or later I will source one and move forward with the build.

Thanks for the motivation.

Awesome watch!

Wore my 16570 today. Enjoying a cigar after work

May want to reach out to mymanmatt. I know he does plating.

Gilt in the morning sun.

On a yacht in NY harbor a few weeks ago. Freedom building in the background.

I like the red, white, and blue theme.

So sad that so many have to die while the politicians and media play "politics". While I believe politicians are a big part of the problem, the media is equally to blame.

Someone gave me these, I thought they were humorous.

Change up for the weekend

Recent iPhone pic I think came out nice. 

Wow Drop, you finally got the 66 gilt you were searching for! Congrats

Amen Brother. Thank you!

Our buddy Kirill found this beauty.

Nice shot. Is that a 3710?

Messing around with different setting on my phone camera.  I really need to break down and buy a nice camera.  Although the iPhone 7 is going to have a dual lens set up.  I keep thinking if I wait long enough, the phone will eventually cover it....

Simply sublime. 

Thanks Bro!

I will jump in

Awesome. This is going to be a really special build

Wore my GMT today.

There was a discussion on TRF too. Too much of this lately. Just brings unwanted negative attention to the hobby.

@droptopman - yours looks fantastic. I'm thinking about maybe picking one of these up for sailing on the lake. Which TD did you use?

Thanks. Trusty. Came with a blue rubber strap too.

This was waiting for me when I returned from my trip. Must agree with mike00! This is a great OTB watch. Did a quick bracelet treatment, removed a link and good to go.

I am funny about the fit and feel of watches. Many I like the looks of, I cannot wear because of my bony wrist. They just won't sit right on the wrist. Even though this is a thick watch, the case back is fairly flush and sits nice. The lightness of the TI adds to the comfort factor. Got lucky as movement winds great, date works perfectly and she is nice a quiet. Keeping excellent time so far. So QC was really good on this one.

Lume is awesome. Go outside for a minute and come back in and she really glows.

Great watch for the gym and pool and I can reduce some wear and tear on my gens. @mike00 thanks for the excellent review.

Great work! This is a beauty.
