Tiyal Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Is anybody offering this service? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRefinedSon Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Outside of the aerospace industry and the automotive industry and other high end high precision industries I'm not aware of this service being available to the general public. There are a few engineering companies out there but it looks like its not the type of thing that can be accomplished for a hobbyist for a few hundred dollars.

Logan Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 Yes Avit (I think I've got that name right) does it here on the board. Search for DLC and you should find plenty of posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke1973 Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 Be prepared to wait a long time to get your watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plaifender Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 Yes Avit (I think I've got that name right) does it here on the board. Search for DLC and you should find plenty of posts Avitt was banned a few years back.. he might still be active on other boards.. but not here.

Logan Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 Bugger.. I missed that. I obviously wasn't around when that happened. Any idea why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiyal Posted March 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 contaced Goin (his facebook page is awesome), he set me up with DLC coatings who responded this morning Tiyal, This is an expensive project, having in mind the fact that you want to get it coated entirely. However, the result will be worth it every penny. I will give you a break down so to get an idea what costs how much. Blasting and DLC coating: - CASE/BEZEL/CROWN - $320 - CASEBACK (IF NEEDED) - $60 - BRACELET - $320 - CLASP - $100 Labor - Taking apart/Putting back together - $40 Shipping back to you - Depending on where you are located Complimentary services - PRESSURE TESING - ACCURACY ALIGNMENT ON A TIMOGRAPH Let me know DLC Finish Co. It the direction I'd like to go, but it pushes the watch (sub or GMT) into gen cost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
