my first mod job

Recommended Posts

I've just finished my first ever mod job,I bought this submariner from Trevor time about a month ago and last week to my horror I woke to find that my pearl had dropped off my Bezel, after getting a quote from old Trevor having told me that I couldn't have just a replacement pearl that I would have to order the whole ceramic Bezel I decided with great apprehension to do my first pearl mod job, as usual I got great advice and instructions from you guys on how to go about making my own pearl,I was really scared about doing this, like everyone on here said that there's no better time than the present to do a mod, so I thought why not, I'll take the risk lol.

So as advised on here I bought some devcon two part epoxy resin and some wonderful light blue glow in the dark paint, first I prepared the surface to make sure it was all clean, then I mixed the epoxy with a drop of paint and mixed well with a cocktail stick, then with the stick I dipped it in the mix and very carefully filled the pearl cup on the Bezel.

I'm extremely happy with the job I've done considering it's my first ever mod,I even managed to get a nice dome on the pearl and best of all I got the colour of the pearl just right,a nice white colour like the Gen submariner lol, judge for yourself guys and thanks again for all the instructions and advice, would not have been able to do it with out you guys.

Mike and Joey,I am interested in doing some work in the case in particular getting the sel look just right,I noticed the solid end link doesn't quite look like the Gen if you know what I'm getting at, and this I've been noticing more and more lately, in fact it's becoming a bit annoying lol, the sel on the Gen just looks so much nicer
