Cats Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 After seeing the Explorer II which Stephan bought from Bobby ( Omega ) lately i decided to shoot Bobby a PM if he could rework my BKLM GMT II transformer. I asked Bobby if he could do the crown guards and try to get them as close to gen as possible which is a hell of a job because there isn't enough material on BKLM case Re-brush the case and bracelet and i also asked him if he could make this one a fixed bezel version instead of the transformer bezel which pups off when you hit against a surface. Bobby replied to me that he didn't have a lot of time at the moment but he was willing to it never the less. After a few weeks i got this beauty back home which is glued to the wrist since that moment. Let the pictures speak for them self and it will show you the true craftsmanship of Bobby Perfectly polished case and the normal bezel atteched Superb crownguard job considering the lack of material on this case The best crown position you can get with a BKLM case And the wristies This beauty came back as a totaly different watch which will be glued to the wrist for the next coming weeks. Thanks for looking. Cats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 1. You forget to mention the inlay, it's clipped in now - not glued. 2. The bezel turns now in both directions, with same rough feeling like the gen. 3 . Bevels are shaped on lugs. BTW, I own a 16700 GMT and the case and CG work is done side by side close as possible. Only some parts has to be changed (I told you that in my E-Mail, Bert) and you have a hell of a watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielv2000 Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Nice. So, it no longer "transforms"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cats Posted June 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 No it doesn't transform anymore . I noticed that i had the pepsi insert on it almost al the time. And the transformer is a nice idea but it comes of too easy and the bezel is way too thin.

I keep meaning to buy a spare Coke insert as I don't like the all-black insert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rower Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 This is on the true artistry category! I wish I had the talent to do something like this. If that watch ever needs a good home that will care for it please let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
