Watchmeister Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 I picked up a busted Davidsen deco bezel a while back for a very reasonable price. When I got it the dial coloring and "orange" lume were way off from any vintage ever produced. We all know what it aspires to look like. So off it went to Ziggy with the instructions to "make it look old" and "feel free to attach it to the bumper of your car". I am ecstatic with the aesthetics and, of course, the watch works again.

HauteHippie Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 Wow. That looks incredible. And I've simply lost track of how many times The Zigmeister's work has exceeded my very high expectations. I'm no Radiomir guy normally, but how much do you want for it?

RWG Technical Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 Well it should arrive in your hands in the next few days, I hope it looks good when you see it in person... I totally forgot the "before" look, I like the after look much more. RG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eunomians Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 Nothing like a little wabi! Perfect imperfection! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archibald Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 That is absolute perfection. Unbelievable....a not-too-good rep turned into a clone of a 50 grand watch with a few well placed smears of oil paint and some hammer dings. How cool is that?

Watchmeister Posted April 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 I am wearing it and loving it. I will try and snap a pic with one of the spare straps from my WM 3646. Perfect touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
