TK471 Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 Thanks to Flavor Flav on this one. I can't wait to get it back. List of what I've got: 1. Mini-fiddy case from the Prince. 2. Low-dome acrylic from cousins UK (37.2) 3. Davidsen 45mm cali dial 4. Davidsen 45mm blued hands 5. Movement -- Asian 6497. I may still switch it for a Swiss, but it's going to be one with some decoration. I'll get it from Tourby just as soon as he's got some available. I used the one that came witht the watch, though, because the Officine Panerai stickers could come off easily, and it's pretty nicely finished (looking, if not in quality). Flav serviced it for me, and he's going to keep it a few days to make sure it's working well. Ok, the pics. I think it turned out pretty great. I didn't want the Panerai caseback on it, I wanted it truly unbranded, but the JimmyFzu casebacks I bought didn't fit. Oh, well. It is what it is, and I'm really, really happy with it.

squeaker Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 BEAUTIFUL, when you get tired of that you PM me to buy it! I really need to do one of these myself, I'm just afraid to open one up and wrench on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vlydog Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 What swiss movement would be compatible with a project like this. In other words same size case, no second hand etc. hey this movement looks also nice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viper Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 (edited) Very nice! Now I want one as well. The Luminor case matches nicely with the dial, cooler than a Radiomir case, imho. Congrats and wear it well! Edited July 4, 2007 by viper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmg Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 TK, that's the best fantasy watch I seen! I agree with Viper the Calif dial seems more suited to that case. Good lord, now you've got my wheels turning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
