l3x Posted November 6, 2009 Report Posted November 6, 2009 I found some time to rework the hands of two of my pieces. I initially messed them up in my attempt to lume the hands...basically they were full of holes due to the lume not sticking I'm pretty satisfied with how they turned out so I thought a family photo shoot is in order All were modded/built by me except for the third piece from left (cali dial) which is a VDB. Of course for all vintage pieces a movement shot is in order. Made up of 240, 616s, and 6497... Some closer ups with corresponding movements... And for the next project...want to make a destro...617... Thanks for looking
jkirke Posted November 6, 2009 Report Posted November 6, 2009 I've never been much of a vintage man myself, but you've got one BEAUTIFUL collection. Stunning pictures. The lighting is the best. Really helped capture the aged look of those dials. You really do have one amazing collection bro. Now you've got me thinking......vintage!!
