Any Experts On Pvd Coating? Want An All Black Sub...

[CrazyAlex]

Hi guys, I am eagerly awaiting the release of BK's new sub and I want it in all black like this:

I was wondering if anyone knows how much it would cost to have it PVD coated in black? And who on this forum does it? Also, is this a good idea in general? Thanks guys!

I called a local watch repair and got quoted $1000 for PVD coating!

I think those guys got a little excited with that quote. Contact Avitt, he can sort you out for much less and the finish is impeccable

Tried contacting Avitt with no luck, was told he is not available due to family emergency. Is there anyone else who can do this for me? Please PM

I wouldn't mind a few crowns coated in PVD

Look for Prohunter subs... you can buy them with the PVD coat already on them!

Edit: Found them

That's true, you can buy one PVD coated, but I wanted to get BK's sub...

[blue_sphere]

Crazy, have you tried asking if he can source a PVD sub? Im not sure who his supplier is now but BK does a lot of "extra" work on watches that come from the same place as that PVD. Send him a PM.

And yes stick with BK hes the best!

OK thank you guys! Maybe I'll get the PVD for $330 and then send to BK for dial and hands. The only difference is dial and hands, right?
