Presentation: Rolex 5512 Serpico Y Laino

[interaktiv]

Hey all !!!

Today I want to introduce my last mod, a Rolex 5512 marked as Serpico Y Laino.


(For those who do not know who was Serpico & Laino, you will read: http://www.rolexencyclopedie.nl/english/models/212/).

A few months ago I found here in the forum (of a very nice member) the following Dial with damaged lume on two.



Have it repaired!









And I started to build:
 
Cartel Case completely Revised and modified as "Square Crown Guards".















As Movement I decided for an ETA 2451 with 18.000 A/h, just like the Rolex caliber 1530, it carries out this model in his time.









Yuki faded Insert.





Gilded hands of Tiger-concept.





















I hope you liked it my presentation

Nice job! I'm not a big fan of the green lume of radium, but it certainly is period correct. 700 crown is also good- now all you need is a rivet oyster to complete the build!

Well done! Love it.

I love the almost bluish lume against the almost bluish faded insert.
