watchguy51 Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Starting on an experimental build right now... did some bezel bleaching. Took hours to get it even slightly bleached, but finally got it right, and it looks amazing. I'll post pics when it's together. I love that grey-blue colour!! Let's see yours.

highoeyazmuhudee Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Naturally (well) aged, all original. that crown is almost dead when the tritium in the second hand fell out where did it end up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Huh? That crown has lots of life left, as do the crown guards. Look closely at other details and guess what kind of life this one has lived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macjulivert Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 Bleach faded blue insert I'm in love... Where you buy it? Thanks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnipz Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 Did this one a lot because I have an extra insert, I think I prefer it only slightly lighter than normal though. The ones below me look really nice think I'll go for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sly Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 I'm in love... Where you buy it? Thanks... If your asking about the insert only, It is from classic watch parts. If the watch, I bought all the parts and assembled it. Yuki Case Yuki Dial Gen Tudor 2784 movement Gen. Hands Gen. Crown CWP Insert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mapman57 Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 All self bleached and lightly sanded with an ultra fine grit scotchpad - gives a sheen and that blue grey hue... The black insert in the first pic is a gen unbleached piece as a benchmark. a few more variants.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
