I think yours looks better than the gen! Great job with just the right amount of aging. Many over do the aging, yours is perfect.

Thanks rower ! i agree that the right amount of ageing is best unlike my cartel 5513 over aged !

Notice the last link is a solid link added

as i have a big wrist and these short clasps

always make the strap tight why cant they add extra link

i may fit a normal diver extension/clasp with the longer clasp

I am a big fan now of these old 2472 & 2451 ETA movements they really look at home in these vintage rolex builds slow beat around 18000 beats closest you can get to the vintage gen movements IMHO ! i purchased 4 of them so far very cheap and after a full service keep very good time !
