hey,

indeed i started with a second @ nine since the case is thiner (closer to the gen).

the watch wasn't built by domi. i had another watchmaker :)

best,

dom

Looks really good. Out of curiousity, did you start with seconds at nine version and did Domi do the case alteration to adjust for the crown? In any case, wear that one well.

hey francisco,

sometimes you have the chance to grap a nice dial on the bay, but finding gen hands is a pain in the a..

but if you are a patient guy, there won't be any problems ;)

I cant see the pics for some reason :pardon: , but just from the list of parts I can assume this is one heck of a watch!!

EDIT: I can now see the pictures and I love it even more. This is one of my favourite ROO dials. Truly beautiful. :thumbsupsmileyanim:

I was looking at case thicknesses on Joshua's website, and his sec@12 is thinner than the sec@9. The sec@12 I believe is 15.5mm and the sec@9 is 17mm. Is this a recent change to the sec@12 case?

no, the sec @9 is thiner because of the missing gears...

i can just tell you what my watchsmith told me and he should know... he finished this project 2 years ago, maybe at this time there were different modells out there...

Does that mean the collectors' websites are wrong :g: ? I want a case size closer to the gen.
