Note so much that I intend to use it right now, to be honest I'm curious to see the results irl. I'll most likely pass it on to a member in need when I'm done studying it..

TheSociety Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 Just testing it out a bit... Gave the case a polish before drilling lugs, and then redoing the bevels and final polish. So sick!!'

hologramet Posted March 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 I should have retapped the case first.. Wondering wether I'll be needing a new 700 Crown + tube... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hologramet Posted May 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 Ok... So a bit of updates. I decided to go for a Yuki fat font and a correctly lumed pearl with matching tone by the Big D. I also received the TC16613 hands and he relumed also them to match the tone/patina of the vietnam dials guy. The parts are now in the hands of mr Jack lé Rolooo. And I've always loved mesh bracelets. Ever since I saw a Seamaster on ém as a boy. I know it is not usual in the Rolex department. Well I dont like rattly bracelets or light for that matter (cough that leaves all but the Sub-C ones) so I would have been forced either to redo a Sub-C into an end link-friendly creation of evil. Or ventured into the incorrect rep bracelets and try to fit a SubC-clasp on it. And then, the authenticity still is qustionable and not looked well upon. So I though, eff it. I present to you... Ratchet buckle, we like, no logo, we like, and should fit 2.0 mm springsbars with a tight fit (for a less rattly feeling) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hologramet Posted June 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 I've been sick the last week, but no matter how tough it is lying in a hospital bed. Something like this cheers you up more than chocolate and flowers... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

droptopman Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Get well soon. And yes nothing cheers up a WIS like a beautifully executed build. Rolo does some awesome work. Hopefully we will see some wrist shots soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alligoat Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 This was a budget build- hands are stock, movement is the a21j. Drilled the lugholes, trimmed the cgs and filed down the case between the cgs and then installed the 702 tube and crown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hologramet Posted June 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 I've gotten better, bye bye hospital (well st least as a patient). Weird experience being the one to be taken care of, when I'm used to being in the other end. Thanks for all the comments. I've been through hell and back. Bonus: 2013 Pure Dominican perfection mated with my 6538-Ploproof Cheers, V 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
