Part 2 : some work on my COMEX...

[Gileto]

today, vintagised the case, slightly brushed case and bezel, lubbed bracelet and all gaskets with silicon grease...

[bkwbkw]

Looks good, but I'd polish the sides..

You really need some decent endlinks to finish this piece off.

Who/what's the source for this beauty?

[Gileto]

Yes I know, I need 585 endlinks but cant find some...

I agree. Polish the sides.

It's coming along nicely!

Hi Gileto

Carpe Diem

or is it monkey

Vintages look better with rough looking end links or end links that dont fit perfectly. If you put on a set of new 585's i think it would take some character away from the watch. I like it the way it is.

But I agree the sides, crown guards and bezel need to be high polished.
