alligoat Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Looks like a nice beater. Did the Miyota come with the watch or did you pick it up separately? Looking at the neck of the case, it looks like the bezel assembly is the paper clip snap on variety. Also, that dial is a fantasy version, but who will know!

SSTEEL Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Looks great, may I ask where you sourced your open 6&9 DWO from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 +1- with the flat top 3s and open 6/9s it's correct for a serviced/late 1680 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sputim Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Those new cartel vintages are really nice for the price and they can be greatly improved with some small mods. Here is mine with yuki dial, athaya 702 crown and gs crystal. Further need to drill the lug holes to 1.2mm and add a yuki insert with pearl and maybe darken the lume a little but kinda like the service look on this watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
