oncyte Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Well....after a long wait for parts to trickle in my 061 is close to completion. I've been tempted to give up on the project so many times and instead to just buy a franken that was recently for sale. It was honestly tough to hold back! It may not be as nice as his but it'll do. Now on with my pics! Comments, questions, suggestions.....whatever you like! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteM Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Really reallly nice Sam, as always you produce some great reps but you always understate how good they are mate. I love that dial and I honestly dont think those pics do it justice...especially with that bloody background again!!!!!! I think the only thing you need is a better CG maybe OEM!!!

w0lf Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 That's Oncyte's trademark background Stunning watch, love the CG, did the lever come with this CG initially? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oncyte Posted June 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Really sweet watch there buddy :thumbsupsmileyanim: All you need now is some AR on that crystal and it's just as good!! Hmmm....did the C series 061 come with AR? Really reallly nice Sam, as always you produce some great reps but you always understate how good they are mate. I love that dial and I honestly dont think those pics do it justice...especially with that bloody background again!!!!!! I think the only thing you need is a better CG maybe OEM!!! You'll know once I move...because my countertops will change! Ha...I keep thinking about your OEM CG in the FS section! That's Oncyte's trademark background Stunning watch, love the CG, did the lever come with this CG initially? Thanks bud! Ya...when I sell something I shouldn't need to tag my pics anymore....my countertops should be good enough. Wow...good eye on the lever....it was from an old school CG I had waaay back when....had a nice lever but crappy CG....and this one had a nice CG but really crappy lever....so the only thing to do was make the swap. How did you figure out that it was changed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK471 Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I know you've probably got a bit more to go, but it looks fantastic. Really, really nice piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swdivad Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Hmmm....did the C series 061 come with AR? I'm pretty sure that B was the last series before they started using AR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewing Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 really nice! and that CG is sweet! :-) I'm pretty sure that B was the last series before they started using AR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w0lf Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 Oncyte, There were oldschool cases that came with with an awesome CG body, good pin placement (slightly toward the top of CG instead of dead center), albeit the lever tip was a bit too thin on them. So I figured you either used a brushed SS CG or one of those good Ti CGs with and did a lever swap to brushed SS lever or some magic Ti lever I've not seen before. And yeah, there's no AR on C models. A/R starts with D series in manual winds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
