fotoman Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 I'm rushing out the door, but i swapped out a pvdish, black skeleton movement in el skawronek project, there was something i didn't like about the color of the gold - and its shiny ness - it looks now, totally evil - batman like - the photos don't do it justice. I really need a better AR on here - the current ar is almost non-existant. enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My advice to you is don't look at this if and when you're on acid. I'm not kidding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KB Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Yes you certainly want some good AR as parts of your wrist could get sunburnt wearing this one. Looks good Pho. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victoria Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 "The Power of Christ compels you!" Where's me garlic and crucifix?? Yikes, that is a VERY evilish (?)-looking watch. Uh, wear it in good health, Pho? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotoman Posted March 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 garlic won't work on it, the watch is jewish but i guess, this would be a good one to push to the Transylvania market The evil thing about it, is, in normal light, it sooo dark and you just see these dark lines that are jagged, and the glow appears to just float it has like a batman begins feel to it. hard to capture, but i'll play with some photoshop on it and try to give it the real world feel. the AR is so needed though, cause the glare almost gives a grey hue to the dial. I'm gettin in on cheif's current run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornerstone Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 I wonder if you could have some fun with it by adding something to the back crystal so you can see it underneath the movement. Lookin' good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotoman Posted March 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 I wonder if you could have some fun with it by adding something to the back crystal so you can see it underneath the movement. Lookin' good like a mirror back? interesting only thing is bad is that with the black movement i got rid of all the reflection that was going on in there - which was then clouding up the crystal somewhat. probably not enough clearance for an angle.but a mirror would be interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mentalist Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 That thing looks effing gorgeous! I want one. Are you selling them perchance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris5264 Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 cool idea,,,,where did you find that movement? Can you get a black hour wheel and keyless works cover? Well,,,that might be too evil.....lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotoman Posted March 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 No, not selling - only my own project watch. It took over 400 to put together, so i think the market would be small anyway Chris - i wish i could get more black parts and or, make them all SS or Gold as opposed to the hodgepodge, but, i'm happy to get what i got. The movement came out of a watch i picked up on ebay. I saw the black movement and grabbed it cause it was rare Its a brand called Android. I haven't been able to find another one cause someone else asked me. I'm not sure if its swiss or asian, but, i will say its much nicer than the asian movements i had in there before, the winding is much more solid the crown / time adjustment is more solid when you pull it out, it feels much more comparable to a swiss movement then your typical asians. I got lucky, picked up the watch for 100 bucks plus shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris5264 Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 I was actually going to guess it was an Android,,,I had the same one but in blue,,,I also bought it just because I liked the color of the movement. They are going for around 200 on slopnbc. Cool project,,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
