Bart Cordell Posted October 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) honestly I'm amazed how rendering this dial. This is much higher than those I have done so far. Edited October 11, 2016 by Bart Cordell 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bart Cordell Posted October 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 It's been a long time I didn't update this thread. Still unsatisfied with this 1675 I contacted tripdog RWI with the hope that he could catch up with the mediocre work of the previous modder. Contrary to what I thought, Trip thinks it's not a Cartel. The case is thicker - the cgs are bigger too - he could not refine it as much as possible on a Cartel. In the end the difference is only 0.2mm which is not huge on the wrist. Fortunately it is a loss for a gain, the tube is placed higher, the rehaut is rather thin and the CG are very wide. The bezel was reprofiled, a gen 24-603 crown added, and insert replaced with a nicely faded one with vivid colours to perfect the set. So to honor his superb work, I had prepared a new dial. After several tests of lume, I think I have found the one that suits me. I also reduced the height of the Clark plexi. Perhaps a little bit too much but it's an easy replacement.
