Katerchen Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 CONGRATS P! What a fantastic piece you got wear it well friend... oh jealousy Awaiting to see some more macros from you then. Although i am having "0" time at the moment i am planning to do an entire tear down and refinishing on my VC rep. Macros of case (caseback), especially the crown an watchband are highly appreciated!! Wear that beauty well friend Regards George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 Looking forward to seeing that twin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txcollector Posted May 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 Gents, one more thing: this is a FRANKEN For those of you that have figured out, kudos. For those that considered it a gen, thank you for the compliment. Like Watchmeister mentioned I'm working on its twin (OEM black dial). So watch this space. The box (complete set with manuals) and dial are OEM. The AR is Chief's. The rest is the cartel rep. Mods that I still need to do: Oil and repolish the bracelet links.Fix the crown so it sits closer to the case. It seems to be an issue with the stem length since without the movement it's perfect.I will try to modify the caseback to add the canon ports. Very steady hand and an engraving machine.C1 on the hands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HauteHippie Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 Poorly chosen thread title. It should be VC *GREATNESS*. Easily one of the best out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txcollector Posted May 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 Thanks Chief. And thanks to your AR it's even better. There's a second crystal just like this on its way to you for my second franken (black dial). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

txcollector Posted May 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 what!?! You have two!?! Life is so unfair... I was searching for one for about 10 months and all of the sudden a found both almost at the same time from 2 different sources. Go figure. and yes, life is unfair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmeister Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 Looks so good I am going to have get off my butt and make one. I think I have been sitting on a dial or two for 3 years or so. Congrats on a beautiful watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
