rolojack Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 I wanted to share some pics of my 6241. I'm pretty sure the weathered rep afficionados will be able to say at once the specs, so I won't bother ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchguy2 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Wow, congrats. I am no expert but I think I recognise a Yuki clasp. But the finish of everything is second to none. Great work!

gmg_3 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Gen Crystals and custom dial work make all the difference. Everyone sporting a bright DW daytona should take note of the weathered look of the dial and the crisp edge of the crystal. I would say..

rolojack Posted January 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 The sheen on the subdial is a dead give away. It is pretty hard to get rid of it. I used a mix of different acrylic clear coat to retexture it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmg_3 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 I had to mill a little of my phong bezel and DW case to get the gen crystal on. Did you have any issues with this? What bezel did you use? DW? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lhooq Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Very, very nicely done, and crisp photography, too! It's painful how some of the best aftermarket parts still come from DW after all these years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperDanX Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Inspirational stuff as usual, I can only hope my PN looks vaguely as nice as this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Looks good, but the steel bezel makes it a '39. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
