aeromatic Posted December 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 (edited) Fantastic news How is the color of the bezel with regards wardrobe compatibility? Its ok im still not sure i will stay with the insert i may refit the harley brown i can not find a burgandy red insert the guy that made the case is working on making a correct colour insert and bb crown that will fit on this case black clothes seem to set off the bezel nicely i think, i tried a stainless steel bracelet but black seems to suite it better with both inserts i also ordered a gold fond insert thinking that the gold fond would go with the guilt dial so thats another option Edited December 25, 2012 by aeromatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So versatile as well, as in less than brilliant light, they look just as black as a Submariner A plan I have for the future, is to install a blue insert on one of my Tudor Subs, which I've seen referred to as a 'landshark' mod Probably won't be happening any time soon ( ) but I figure it's always good to have goals to strive for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeeJay Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Sounds like a super plan this is how i plan my builds i bend both ways vintage builds and custom builds how about a ceramic sub case blue ceramic insert and a blue snowflake dial and hands a modern flake sub raffles dial and hands and a rep watch Sounds like a promising build Personally, I'm not a fan of the ceramic sub inserts or cases, but to each his own I definitely think it would be a nice update of the blue Snowflake though, rather than the Pelagos, which was just, well, not quite right... As I've said before, the Pelagos is like seeing your sister in a bathing suit, thinking 'nice ass...' and then remembering it's your sister Another aspect which would keep it custom if I was to put the blue insert on my current Snowflake watch, is that it only has Mercedes hands. I was planning on obtaining snowflake hands, and putting that all in a no-date Submariner case, rather than the 5517 case it's in at the moment, as overall, that dial/case combo would be a Tudor version of the 16800, but thinking about it, the blue insert would still be a nice additional custom touch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
