VDBroucke Posted January 22, 2010 Author Report Posted January 22, 2010 So is there a gen of this?! *noob alert* lol Looks good, although I think the crystal distortion day to day would drive me nuts! Although I appreciate the reasons for the shape Gen
hooky Posted January 22, 2010 Report Posted January 22, 2010 I think the guy in the picture up here, had to order custom made suits and shirts, with the left sleeves around 5cm shorter. haha.

FxrAndy Posted January 22, 2010 Report Posted January 22, 2010 VDB you amaze me, i really must make it to a GTG in your area to shake you hand!
Guest techlogik Posted January 22, 2010 Report Posted January 22, 2010 You should show up to that Rolex event where they are showing that watch with this one. Then say you have in your possession the lost twin that was a prototype and the same time...they would be like huh?!?!
Member X Posted January 22, 2010 Report Posted January 22, 2010 http://www.christies.com/LotFinder/lot_details.aspx?intObjectID=5275068 *uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck... That's mental!
Dani Posted January 22, 2010 Report Posted January 22, 2010 VDB@ you are a true artist, you always do such great things Thanks for shearing. D
cib0rgman Posted January 22, 2010 Report Posted January 22, 2010 With all those tools you can make the perfect Sub, and no one will be able to tell. Great work. very impressive
valerian Posted January 22, 2010 Report Posted January 22, 2010 Fascinating work. And - as a plus - now we now who has the best sub. Val.
George Loiz Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 Man..u r amaizing.Im a lathe worker myself n i made a few great things on this superb machine n i know exactly how you felt when this "monster" was over.Im a ROLEX collector n i know the whole story of this watch...BRAVO !!! Ill put some pics later on of some rolex reps that i modified in better water resisting n better looking watches.Super job
Watchmeister Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 I can't help coming back to this thread. That is an incredible project. And yeah, I would get a couple of shirts custom made for that watch. The person who made me a couple of dress shirts for the PAM's would keel over.
aeromatic Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 here my new product work in progress... sorry for bad pics(iphone 8gb) Fantastic work! on a rare and i believe rolex deepsea prototype,i have been trying to get someone to manufacture this case as my next project! a very difficult and complex job this watch is a monster rolex looking like something captain nemo would wear in a jules vern story! you are an artist and engineer!
aeromatic Posted January 26, 2010 Report Posted January 26, 2010 here my new product work in progress... sorry for bad pics(iphone 8gb) Wow ! i love this project of yours have you considered making one for a customer? what would be a rough idea of the cost say to have made the case? complete unpolished
VDBroucke Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Posted February 11, 2010 update Endlinks work in progress
earlgrey-erfurt Posted February 12, 2010 Report Posted February 12, 2010 I have it on my wrist, YEAH ....Still not finished Have a nice Weekend Helmut
George Loiz Posted March 7, 2010 Report Posted March 7, 2010 Super project...im sure AEROMATIC loves it already.Have u ever thought of installing a bezel like the 6538 JB model but thick,say...5mm hight...no matter if u break the replicating rules...just to see what comes out.Im sure that it will look superb.By looking at it,u think that's something's missing,like the bezel fell off.Anyway...great job!
