ubiquitous Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 Started as: Step 1: Get rid of that fugly domed crystal for a correct example with cyclops. Step 2: For good measure, press on a genuine bezel and convert to 7032 spec. In two easy steps, the watch now has a completely different (and more gen-like) look and feel to it All set for the time being... Just waiting for other items to finish up before I press on further here. Thanks for looking! //ubi
dluddy Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 amazing transformation with the bezel change
JoJo35 Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 Nice clean looking watch ubi, very nice job!
ubiquitous Posted April 22, 2010 Author Report Posted April 22, 2010 Comparison- Rep: Gen: I gotta ditch those pushers next....
HauteHippie Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 It's quickly getting there! That bezel is the cats meow.
ubiquitous Posted April 22, 2010 Author Report Posted April 22, 2010 Hands are going to be a challenge... But I agree. Those are on the list, albeit just a further bit down on the priority schedule. Dial will be swapped as well. While this one isn't bad, I have other plans rosnik- This one started as an NDT...
Jkay Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 With the bezel change, the watch went from a bastard to a beauty! Very good call.
vlydog Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 A tasteful makeover Ubi; nice job with the changes so far. Looking forward to the final stages.
