Rolex 6541 Milgauss Smooth Bezel build


Recommended Posts

Hello guys

 

I badly want this watch built or moded on a BB41. Is that possible or do I need to pay for a complete mew build?

Please send me a pm if you know one for sale or you'd be able to build it for me.

 

Thanks a lot!

Gergely

There are no obvious way to do it. Perhaps use a vietnam 6541 case and a 1655 bezel.





Yes! That is really nice. Did you build it yourself? Could you share some more photos pls?

Here's a very noob design. Owning a few Rolexes I though I'd go sterile. What do you guys think? Please ignore my amateur photoshop/paint skills

There are a number of ways to do this build. None of them simple Probably the easiest method would be to start off with a base 6541. Remove the rotating bezel Ans mod the case to fit a smooth bezel that also has been modified. This will require some machine work
