astonjenks Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 After some time and a number of personal variations, Micky has completed my latest version of Noobs DSSD. Micky is an artist without question and the list of what he has done is as follows: Transplanted a NOS Swiss ETA movement (RADO) Replaced original dial with fully relumed dial, hands and pearl to match (red second hand personal option which I love!) Removed and double AR Coated crystal DWO from TC Waterproofed Timed to within a second of her life to COSC standards I am delighted how she looks, the entire project and would liek to publicly thank you Micky for your sterling work.

Legend Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 I have a red second hand on my franken DSSD and was the first to post such a combination here on RWG. The idea came from watchfreund who sold me the watch. Definitely breaks up the grey/black monotony! Your DSSD definitely looks stunning, could do with some platinum paint mod on the insert? Kudos to SSteel and you for completion of this project! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astonjenks Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Thanks Guys Indeed Legend I believe I saw yours and said when we next mod mine it must go 'red' :-) Mike, this indeed did start as the blue/black dial that I bought at a crazy price, however has gone through at least two iterations since! She's on her way to me, more photos to follow! Regards AJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSTEEL Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Not quite today Andy, a job that should of been done today has taken much longer than expected, so will get your PPP mod started before the weekend, I have found to do it right, and the best possible finish I will remove the insert from the bezel assembly, and remove the pearl, then remove old bezel paint after a soak in acetone, and then start with the first PPP coating To see the various stages and some pop samples, and WIP shots, take a look at the link below.. https://www.flickr.com/photos/gsi-r/sets/72157651682839491/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
