Legend Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 I bought this magnificent beauty from Psychospike over at RWI. She was then sent for servicing, waterproofing to 6atm, and has her datewheel centered on the dial. The crownguard lever was also tightened to adjusted a little to snap shut when closing. The movement has been calibrated to within +2 sec a day. She is then put on a Simona "Bronzo strap. The color of the strap, a dirty green-brown-olive, complements the dial perfectly. The stitches of the strap is a coppery brown, matching the case very well. To top it off, the strap comes with a bronze buckle to finish off the watch flawlessly when worn on the wrist. Just some humble pics taken using the iphone.. please excuse the poor quality!
Legend Posted May 5, 2014 Author Report Posted May 5, 2014 ok... now she's ready to be sold to me.... Lol hey P, a guy like you gets and mods his own watches, if I remember correctly. Though you always got a good eye for what goes on your wrist.

Legend Posted May 5, 2014 Author Report Posted May 5, 2014 Ouch! Legend to rich for my blood, better check cardoza's guy! You're being modest my friend.. I saw your recent purchases.
Mike on a bike Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 As I must custom most every strap I have a set limit other wise loses mount as no one wants my straps but me!
Legend Posted May 7, 2014 Author Report Posted May 7, 2014 Any idea what went into making it WR to 6atm? I know it involved the changing and greasing of gaskets and seals, and of course, the obligatory pressure testing to 6atm.
