tmg Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Here's a small project I just had done as a gift for my wife; I had the dial on an old Tudor Oysterdate redone in a pink background -pretty cute eh! She mentioned how she liked a pink custom dialed Rolex Datejust she saw in a catalog. She'd kick my butt if I bought here a gen Rolex so I thought about a budget option and this is what I came up with. What do y'all think about replacing the hands? These are the originals, I was thinking a minty white fresh set might make more sense against the new dial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubiquitous Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Well done, TMG! Very nice Personally, I think the hands work well... The more important opinion, however is that of Mrs. TMG. What does she think of the hands? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmg Posted July 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Thanks for the kind words Ubi and all! Well I gave it to her yesterday and asked her about the hands along with a crystal swap (it has a few battle scars I couldn't quite buff out), but it doesn't look like it'll be coming off her wrist anytime soon. So I guess that's her answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vlydog Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 TMG, this watch looks great. Pure understated elegance with a sporty side too. ...a wet suit meets a little black dress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trailboss Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Interesting! Would have been nice to get a pink pearl finish on the dial but it looks great as is IMO. I'd tend to leave the hands but as stated above the important thing is what does the missus think? Col. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
