Here are some pics of my girls' Tudor Chrono with the following features:

- Rolex Daytona 116520 case set

- Swiss ETA Valjoux 7750/25 jewel (gen Mont Blanc movement)

- ETA date wheel

- gen Tudor dial (with customized hour markers/indices from a Rolex Daytona 6263)

- mixed hand set from a Rolex Daytona 116520 (hour, minute chrono second) and Tudor Chrono (sub dial hands)

- Taikonaut rooster leg strap

This watch was built by my friend and great watchmaker Domi :)

I hope you enjoy the pics and I welcome all comments :)

hey bro, i still have my other daytonas, don´t worry ;)

my girl just wanted a white chrono with a rolex/tudor design, so i did this for her :)

Nice and all that. But with your 162520 why bother? :)

many thanks guys for your compliments :)

By the way strap source? May get her something like it.

i got it from here:

http://www.strapcode.com/store/20mm-strap-c-122.html?infoBox=6

but it seems that they only provide the green version of it at the moment...

I think it's pretty awesome. Did everything fit together during the build? (dial size, movement, etc.) or did Domi need to go medieval on it?

basically it was plug and play. the movement fits without any modification into the case. same holds true for the dial, since tudor also uses the 7750 based movement. the hour markers/indices however had to be adjusted, since the tudor hour sticks are quite different...
