Well This build started with a dial that i never ordered and came in a package of parts that i ordered ,it sat in my parts box for over a year as i am mostly into vintage builds this dial just looked to modern to use in any build most of you will have seen my tudor blackbay fantasy or homage build , so after purchasing a ceramic case set from a member here (Watch parts for sale ) cheap i was going to build a project x type milsub using helenarou logos t dial , my watchmaker friend andreas (George loiz ) member wanted to make the crown guards pointed similar to the pelagos tudor sub, then we decided to use this blue tudor flake dial ,i then ordered a parnis full ceramic insert hoping that the blue colour will match the tudor blue dial next i wanted a true ETA movement in this build so i bid on a rado 2836-1 eta i won it for 50 usd very clean and super condition so we got the ball rolling keeping in mind this is a low budget build and because it is a fantasy build no stress or worry trying to make it like the gen , and the best thing is there is no gen to compare it with which makes it also unique so here are some photos , i wanted to fit it to the sterile bracelet it came with but the lug holes will not match up with the the bracelets . Specs Case origin parnis ( I believe as parnis has a much thicker case than the gen ceramic case) purchase from RWG member Devilseam along with other parts Thanks my friend !
