ammandel Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Can't get used to this new forum at all! Early days though -.- It's funny, I was almost ready to sell this but now have just fallen back in love with it and realise it rounds my collection rather well! If only I could get a nice strap for it instead of this not so great moo-croc thingy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Today's obviously a day for new beginnings and rejuvination, so I guess it's only appropriate that I finished my project sub, and am happily wearing it It started off as a vintage Sub from Silix, and has undergone 'a few changes'... Case and bracelet have been 'hand aged'. (Hopefully looking between 30-50 years old overall) Crystal has been re-epoxied into place for renewed water resistance. New (3rd) bezel insert (sanded edges and bleached for 60 seconds). New movement (old movement was okay, but a bit 'twitchy' on hand-winding, and the new movement had a clearer date-font, so it made sense to swap) New dial (baked for 60 seconds, and text colored) New Millitary-issue case-back (slightly scuffed to blend with the rest of the watch's appearance) Bracelet built from assorted parts to fit the case (original bracelet only fitted with very bent springbars) Original 'factory vintage' hands. So here it is, probably not everyone's cup of tea, but I'm very happy with the results. Future work to include a new coin-edge bezel Questions and comments are always welcomed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubiquitous Posted July 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 So Ubi.. when is that Daytona for sale Well, it technically belongs to my 5 year old son, so whenever he's ready to sell, I suppose. He'll probably receive it in about 20 years or so; I'd ask around then Speaking of my son... He's kicking off the week with this vintage piece...
