gplracer Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 After nearly a year my 7032 is finally completed! I got the 7734 movement about a year ago for $105 on the bay. I then got the case from DW, hands from Yuki, and folded link band from Mary. The watch was sent the Zigmeister for a full service. He then match the markers to the hands. Here is a quick picture. I would like to take some better ones later this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lhooq Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 It was over a year ago, and gplracer was the very first guy to tell me, "Hey, I heard DW's working on a 7032 kit. We should know more about it after Chinese New Year." My first thought was, "Pffftt... Ready after Chinese New Year? Suuure it will..." Congratulations on getting it done, B!

mrboombasteke Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 The lume work is extraordinary! Best I've seen. Exactly how I would like mine to end up looking like. +1 Just had to get on The Zigmeister's calendar after seeing the pics of the lume dots. I better LOVE this watch when it's complete. BTW, what end links are on your 7032? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highoeyazmuhudee Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 (edited) I plan on taking some better pics with my Canon 50D. I really need a light box. DIY with corrugated white plastic from home depot, save yourself $70-$200+ like ive done. result Edited May 12, 2011 by highoeyazmuhudee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
