6200's w/ Brevet crowns


bones

Recommended Posts

Just finished some experimental pieces. These are hybrid 6200/6538's. Weather is really dull today so pics arn't amazing and trying to capture a domed crystal without reflections is a nightmare.

Silix case given gentle ageing, soften edges, dings etc.

8mm Brevet Crown

Silix Rivet bracelet

Dial given vintage texture (i'll try to get better pictures of the dials)

Dials and hands stripped back and re-lumed with W@tchlume vintage

Pearl re-shaped and lumed with same vintage lume and given matte topcoat.

Insert given light aging but not bleached.

Crystal height was shaved down about 2 mm at least to reduce stupid oversize superdome look.

I got Michelle at Silix to make up a few custom pieces. These are two of them. They have a lot of the right pieces, they just tend to be a bit mismatched. The cases are actually a new design from them. Instead of the crystal sitting in a groove it sits on a ledge inside the rehaut. Whether it takes gen sizes im not sure, but considering sternkreutz (sp?) do so many variations of plexi crystals you should have no problem.

Bones,

i would love to see the details of the crystal on these. I am placing an order soon, and Michelle mentioned that they don't have the old cases any more.

Nanuq,

Cannot find if I asked this before, on your macro dial shot, is that dial sitting inside the rehaut, or just underneath?
