Ditto Where'd you source the Monaco from, and any mods?

It's actually a gen :( I think there is a rep version of this, look pretty close but only the quatz version. I think Andrew (from trusty) has it.

wow nice! curious to know where you got those watch boxes from! beautiful

 

Rainer from germany make these watches. my 3x watch box seem to be discountined ( i wanted carbon fiber first but these were sold out ).

 

this is his sales thread:

i think the quality is ok, but not that impressed, maybe because he hand made these, the watch pillow seem not in same size. also the height of the case is not high enough, i have to push the case to close and lock it or it cannot close properly.

Nice collection.

 

Rainer's boxes are not made in Germany.  They are made in Asia.

Nice collection.

that what i suspected, quality-wise, i was not impressed, only reason i choose rainer over watch boxes on TAOBAO was his reputation i heard over and over again.

Your BPFF is very nice, definitely on my wish list. If you ever decide to part with it let me know.

:) you can DIY it, phong from J&W sells the most accurate (compare to DSN) one, but with wrong bezel insert and hands. Big dazza can do the custom parts to correct these two tells. I got the insert installed and now under the project finding the correct hands. If money is not a problem to you, you can get the perfect FF in about $1,250.
