thogaa Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 This is what it looked like when it was new: And off course decades later it shows sign of wear. But not all bad for an almost 40 year old watch. Perhaps I should list it on eBay? - Nah just kidding. Half way through beating this watch (Cartel 1655 eta rolex dressed mov) up I was regretting my action but I think it turned out pretty nice. You like or is it over the top?

dutchguy2 Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 I think it is ok. Maybe hands and dial (lume part) can use some more wabi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might have over cooked it a bit with 1.5mm drill though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
