shultz Posted July 29, 2007 Report Posted July 29, 2007 Hi there, I received my 3717 back from The Zigmeister and as usual he did a wonderful work as on my other reps (e.g. SF, EVO, AC and so on). Thanks, Rob! Modifications done: Movement swapped for a swiss 7750, ETA day/ date wheels swapped as well, Markers and hands relumed with SL C1 (white). Watch is running slow 4 sec. per day! Not bad I guess I took some pics for your pleasure showing my 3717 on a G10 leather strap which -in my opinion- makes a huge difference. A closer look: And the very nice ETA day/ date wheels (well aligned, isn't it?) Finally: A wrist shot from today:
alant Posted July 29, 2007 Report Posted July 29, 2007 That's real nice! I like the strap a lot too! Btw may I know how much did u spend for all these modifications?
vlydog Posted July 29, 2007 Report Posted July 29, 2007 Greetings Shultz, That strap is bad a** and master Ziggy's work looks flawless! My 3717 is in line for a September Ziggy treatment; all the same mods. Is the lume on your watch what Ziggy recommended or is it something different you decided to go with? Best, Vlydog
shultz Posted July 29, 2007 Author Report Posted July 29, 2007 Is the lume on your watch what The Zigmeister recommended or is it something different you decided to go with? Best, Vlydog I just asked him for re-luming the watch But seriously: I took a look to the real deal before and figured out that actually not all markers are lumed. Just the "main" markers @ 3,6,9,12. The SL colour seems to be C1 (white) and I asked The Zigmeister for reluming with C1 as well. He did a very nice job especially on the wide hands which take more lume than thinner models. I really love that watch @ alant: A swiss 7750 is running about 250 usd and the prices for The Zigmeister's service can be found at his capabilities list.
arminvanbuuren Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 yeh im getting these works too in september.. i know that the original lume is only on the 3,6,9,12 markers.. but The Zigmeister if ur reading this.. can u also do the numbers? .. coz i think it'll look much much better if you do em on the numbers as well
Richard Tracy Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 Beautiful ! Especially love the strap !.... gotta look that one up ...
eunomians Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 Great watch, welcome to the club! I've been wearing mine daily since receiving it back from Master Zig.
shultz Posted July 30, 2007 Author Report Posted July 30, 2007 Great watch, welcome to the club! I've been wearing mine daily since receiving it back from Master Zig. Wow! Yours is looking nice as well. The strap is freakin' cool I am owning a Di-Modell Tornado strap which is my favourite flieger strap and will take a pic soon.
Watchmeister Posted August 9, 2007 Report Posted August 9, 2007 Euno- I am loving that strap. Can you PM me who makes it.
dluddy Posted August 9, 2007 Report Posted August 9, 2007 I know Jurgen will make them. I got a similar brown bufffalo from him for my cheap Asian Big Pilot that I have long since sold. You can see him on TZ sometimes....
jeff g Posted August 9, 2007 Report Posted August 9, 2007 OK then...it is official. Every single person who got the 3717 loves this watch. And...it looks good on either leather straps or SS bracelets. What more could one ask of a beautiful timepiece like this. Wear it well.
