cc33 Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 I've made too many threads on this build! I only swapped the dial and hands this time around.. Just to recap its a Phong cased 6538 with a gen band, bezel, insert, t17, crown, 1030 movement and now hands. special custom gilt dial. Few more pics from today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 @dbane, do my eyes spy what I think I see in your build? Verrrrrrrrrry tasty indeed! @cc33, you've done it again. Absolutely spectabulous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mendota Explorer Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) Wow. I'm speechless. That is really something special. I wish that all of you big crown experts lived closer to me so I could come see them and hold them in person. This is true excellence. I especially love the red depth on the dial. It's one of my favorite 6538 dial variants. What a classy piece. Truly an heirloom. Is the tip of the minute hand touching the rehaut?

It isn't touching no, it's a hair past the minute track but is exaggerated by the superdome t17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
