prdubis Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 Just back from Arizona... What to improve? 1
alligoat Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 Nice pair of Cosmographs! What is the significance of Arizona? Has Phong opened a spa?
prdubis Posted February 5, 2015 Author Report Posted February 5, 2015 Phong built these for me using the parts I sent him Nice guy to deal with, but pretty expensive... I'm collecting parts to buid a black dial 6263, about to receive a Valjoux 726 and a nice case... Will need your help to choose between several dials
dutchguy2 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 Lovely. Makes me want one too. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD 1
prdubis Posted February 5, 2015 Author Report Posted February 5, 2015 Was looking for a WatchNY bezel on the bay, just got a message from him saying they were not available anymore...Too bad...
panerai153 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 Very nice!! To bad about the WatchNY bezels, they were the only good alternative to the insanely expensive genuine ones.
dieselpower Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 No more watchNY's - now that's a hole in the market. Come on somebody, fill the gap and fill your wallet.
dieselpower Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 Oh, sorry - lovely watches by the way. Is there anything better than a good steel daytona? I don't think so.

candide2424 Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 Superbe travail! Ma prochaine franken mais avec une base 7753. Felicitations!
prdubis Posted February 22, 2015 Author Report Posted February 22, 2015 Thanks! Will get another black dial 6263 back from Phong next week. 6239 is powered by a Valjoux 72 and both 6263 by Valjoux 726 Phong is truly an expert in servicing valjoux 72x and building these watches
jonsydney Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 Thanks for sharing, PR. What's the damage on a build like those? Look amazing.

508-Fanatic Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 The last watch there is what I lust after. Do want! 1
