Franken Tudor Ranger build

[mead861]

Hello,

I started this Tudor ranger build using all the design elements that I like. I wanted something in 34mm because its small and comfortable to wear. 

Gen Rolex 15000 case

Yuki dial

Eta 2824 clone

Generic snowflake hands

Yuki Bracelet 

Removing the cyclops from the crystal

Disclaimer: I know that Tudor never made a red Ranger with snowflake hand...etc.

Nice build! Tudor is my favorite watch brand and I prefer smaller watches so I can see myself building something very similar in the future. Was the gen case pricey? I'd probably go for a rose dial if anyone makes them. The hands are a bit different but it's a good look, have you thought about aging the lume on them to match the dial?

Interesting interpretation, I like thinking outside the box.

I like - but the hands???

[mead861]

I'm nervous about aging the hands. I might see if I can find some pre-aged hands

Just buy some cheap hands and give it a go...

Here is my first try at aging.

I tried the oven method to age the hands but really didn't like the outcome. They are not perfect put I'm happy.
