Second project - Blue Snowflake Date

[abzack]

I've been busy with work for a while, but I just finished my second project, a blue Snowflake Date. The case is from a 1680 rep, the movement is a clone 2824, and the dial and hands came from the bay. Its not perfect, but I don't think it turned out too bad.







...and the family, 79090, blue SF date, and blue SF no date...

Looks very nice! It's a shame that the insert had to be trimmed to fit over the crystal however the end result is still a beautiful watch

Thanks B3n.  Yeah, I tried to be as careful as I could, but hopefully I'll get better with practice.

Thanks payhomage! When you get one, you are required to share lots of pics.  yes, "the bay" is ebay.

looks great,,,,can you fade and vintage the insert so you can't tell as much it was trimmed?

Nice build!

And apologies in advance for the semi-threadjack, but if you ever decide to part with that blue no-date please let me know. Droool.

Good idea! I've read about how to do this, but I haven't tried one yet...

Thanks mr_slippery!  LOL, I'll add you to the list for the no-date.  You'll get a PM if I ever decide to part with it.
