Dawagner Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 Hey all, Was bored and finally got around to putting these photos together. Ive seen a few posts lately about how to build a 1016 so here is how I built one for the Wife. Got my inspiration from @mir36 thread last November, Thanks! I used a JMB v2 case, T21 crystal, Helenarou Dial, Raffles time merc vintage hands, ETA 2824, Hirsch teal strap (now Jubilee). Overall the Helenarou dial is pretty nice. I had built it originally with a Whoopy dial which was awesome but as the goal was for a Tiffany and Co dial I reached out to her and am pretty happy with the results. Just need to get a re-lume as the dial doesn't match the hands, its a little too green. The 2824 I bought was in pretty rough shape so I tackled that first. First all the pieces, And then piece by piece, And last but not least all together! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
