momo.sweden Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Big Daz does it again! It started with me reading about some guys here, over at RWI and RWG who was very pleased with Big Daz handywork on the dials of their vintage builds. After contacting Daz he consulted me on getting a Helenarou 6538 and we agreed about shipping it directly from Helenarou to him, and after him working his magic it landed on my doorstep yesterday. It took about two weeks from me ordering it from Helenarou to me getting it modded by Daz. Verdict: Damn I'm impressed! The dial looks stunningly beautiful and the case/bezel is lightly aged to prefection. Also he was easy to communicate with and always friendly. Simply a pleasure doing business with the guy!

droptopman Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 Hi guys, I was lucky enough to purchase this beautiful piece yesterday to hold me over while I source parts for a super Franken 6538. Want to source a reasonably priced bracelet/strap and super dome plexi for this to install when she arrives. Suggestions? Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Hi mate, Only to keep you floating the first days I'll throw in a new James bond Raf strap in the shipment for free http://www.helenarou.com/20mm-6538--connery-bond39s-custom-r20653839.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackflash Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 Congrats! You might be able to pick up a 7206 bracelet from Yuki when in stock. Someone with knowledge of the Helenarou case dimensions should be able to let you know about the plexi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
