hippohippo Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Well today was time for stage two of my 6200 training mod! All went ok ish, pretty pleased with the result. Here's a quick and dirty of it as it now stands. I'll do a few better shots later in the week when I get a chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddy333 Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Discoloration of text is 1 of the limiting factors in vintagizing dials. Still, the watch looks great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
