freddy333 Posted November 14, 2011 Report Posted November 14, 2011 The service bezel may have been overkill, but I was only doing this once There is no such thing as overkill when fitting gen parts to a franken. Assuming you plan to keep the watch, the only real downside is that the more gen parts you fit, the more obvious the remaining non-gen parts become.

praetor Posted November 14, 2011 Report Posted November 14, 2011 now all you need is a genuine dial aha;asdfa;hv There is no such thing as overkill when fitting gen parts to a franken. Assuming you plan to keep the watch, the only real downside is that the more gen parts you fit, the more obvious the remaining non-gen parts become. that is so true.... I miss the days when a cheap reps is good enough to be a daily beater. Now it's all about superfrankens. The more macros ppl post, the more OCD I get. So I guess you can say money = happiness. :bangin:

mastergod Posted November 16, 2011 Report Posted November 16, 2011 (edited) Looks absolutely fantastic - my favourite Lex at the moment. Love these über-quality vintage builds. Thanks for the viewing-pleasure + the inspiration! MG (edit: wrote my real name by mistake. Embarrassing when you're King of a small Nordic country. Opps!) Edited November 16, 2011 by mastergod
