Submariner/Explorer custom hybrid

[Triplock]

Sub V6s A2836 as a base.
Removed cyclops.
Swapped black bezel for blue.
Swapped movement for genuine Swiss ETA 2836-2.
Parts obtained from various sources.

It's a fun watch to build and I hope to eventually have a custom dial with my name on it.

Very nice. I did something very similar using an inaccurate sub replica and a Raffles dial.

HR will print up custom dials for you - here's a vintage one I worked on. If you like I can try to help you.

That's very kind of you and I appreciate your offer! I'm a graphics guy and have designed a dial in Illustrator which HR is making. I hope to get it soon. I'm also going to experiment with gilt dials made with decal technique.
