Lani, Who do you use for your G-10 straps? Horward?

Thank you Ubi. A beautiful watch indeed. I have been thinking of turning my 5512 into a snowflake. Just picked up a set of NOS Rolex Tudor Submariner Snowflake Hands Luminova from the bay.

NOS: dial ~ hands ~ crystal ~ insert Genuine: crown.. original eta 2783 movmt. Lani, are the hands and dial Luminova?

Great stuff guys! A beautiful fraken comes to life... or is it just a dream? seems surreal

The hour indices @ 6 and 12 were the tell for me.

Love it! The attention to detail really shows in this piece. Great job.

I am going to give this Zeugma strap a try as soon as the buckle comes back from the coater. What do you guys think?

I just love the look of the 3717 pictured here with Gen Kevlar:

my 2 cents would be to make more. Thank you t

This project would have never gotten off the ground without the help and advice of the following members: Vaccum PAMman t Kruzer00 V avitt chinkiechunkie ubiquitous kelster fishgodeep rolli pizzanooo dluddy toomuchgear ssurfer peepshow The Zigmeister Thanks to all and RWG This story begins with me courting PAMman for a set of really nice parts that he was thinking of selling. First communications quickly showed him that I was interested but I am not sure he was 100% certain he wanted to part with these fine trinkets. Well persistence paid off and the "dark knight" project was off and running. The parts that were sourced from PAMman that made it to the watch were: Jimmy Fu Case Davidsen Crystal and Case-back Zero Dial and Hand-set Next came a 1:1 Crown Guard from V The Zigmeister then stepped in for the initial parts fitting and case-back scrubbing to remove the black paint. In the mean time I searched for a Genuine crown. Kruzer00 had a spare SS auto crown and generously passed it on. The genuine Panerai lug screws can from chinkiechunkie. The assembled shell, crown, lug screws and gen buckle were then sent off to member avitt where they received their beautiful DLC'd armor. The heart of "the knight" is beating with a beautiful movement from t or tourby as most of us have come to know him. t had his watch-smith mill the winding stem so it would accept the .9mm threads for the auto crown. All the dark lustrous parts were then shipped to vaccum. Vac applied his magic to the dial and hands with his precision vac-lume, reassembled the parts and then sent "the dark knight" on his way. All the other members mentioned who did not contribute parts or labor certainly provided a wealth of information, guidance, critique and moral support that I will be forever grateful for. More to come...

Thank you. Member avitt needs the credit on this one but it's DLC not PVD.

This one tomorrow for sure!!!
