alligoat Posted July 8, 2011 Report Posted July 8, 2011 This is a work in progress- 16660 SD, yuki dial, lugholes by jmb and a silver DW from my old DRSD from ages back that I got from Paul in 2005/6. Oh, the silver DW came with a swiss eta, ah for the good old days- all for $139. Sorry for the crappy iPhone pic- maybe some day I'll learn to take pcs. I may need to do something about the yellow lume- the dial sat in the window sill in the sun for two months but it didn't fade like one of the other dials. BTW, LHOOQ, I'm liking the 5512 and how did I know you were going to put it on a Tropic?

Looking good Depending how comfortable you are with painting/luming, I'd try using a luming tool to apply an ivory enamel paint over the yellow lume, then put lume on top of the enamel paint
lhooq Posted July 9, 2011 Report Posted July 9, 2011 BTW, LHOOQ, I'm liking the 5512 and how did I know you were going to put it on a Tropic? It was pre-destined! Actually the Tropic looks better in pictures than it does on my small wrist. The curved ends protrude from between the lugs, and it's not as clean-looking as I would like.
