Here's the world's most gorgeous 6538, belonging to Tom Vox

 

 

 

Here's a 1665 that looks like it belongs on a scoop of ice cream

 

 

 

And here's a GMT that's tropical enough to shame its gilt lettering

Freddy is that baby a Gen??? If not how did you get the dial to have that warm brownish color to it?

 

Gen with repainted dial that received a bit of enhanced patination.

Makes me want a tropical dial sooo bad, awesome!

[freddy333]

Yea that patination is what im curios about?

 

The result, in this case, is due to the application of 2 shades of boot polish & a few minutes in the oven with my chocolate chip cookies. Be careful not to burn the cookies (or the paint).
