l3x Posted August 19, 2009 Report Posted August 19, 2009 Hi guys, Just completed another...I'd like to share with you my Cali. Vintagized/Relumed dial and hands. I still managed to screw up the hands but did my best to save it. The case/plexi was also vintagized. For this one I decided to use a solid think caseback. On to the pics... First shot next to my VDB Cali The one I worked on... Since this is a closed case back I went with a Swiss 6497... Thanks for looking
flyback Posted August 20, 2009 Report Posted August 20, 2009 Nice cali ! congrats ! May i ask you where did you get that fat caseback ?
Jurgenk Posted August 20, 2009 Report Posted August 20, 2009 I don't often like vintage pieces, but this one looks really nice, and really much more fun to wear than a brand new reissued Cali gen or rep...
l3x Posted August 21, 2009 Author Report Posted August 21, 2009 Thanks everyone. Regarding the caseback, I got it from a member. But I'm not sure where he got it from. The case set looks to be from DSN but the caseback possibly from VDB...since his watches are the only watches I've seen with these casebacks...guess he can confirm.
hava Posted August 22, 2009 Report Posted August 22, 2009 Great are very nice watches both. Are 47 or 45 mm? The dial are from DSN? has plexi crystal ? thanks.
sssurfer Posted August 23, 2009 Report Posted August 23, 2009 Great! Personally, I would just add a few more hairline scratches on the case... now it looks as there is a prevalence of notches. Maybe it's just the pic. Awesome anyway!
