I love a good franken thread, do you have any before and during pictures to share please?

Actually for the "before" pics, check out the pics of the equivalent watch on any TD website.

I have been looking at TD sites, I know very little about Royal Oaks having only just started to notice them. I have been flicking backwards and forwards from page to page trying to compare, but I'm not even sure if I have the right watch. I read the sticky on modding an AP and I've been looking at genuine ones on the net and in the AD. I have a lot to learn.

Belated congratulations on your appointment to the admin team by the way Legend.

What a nice reply sir I'm impressed with your humility. I'm also learning myself even today.

Thank you for the well wishes.
