Samurai Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Got bowled over by this beauty by Vac: It comes with the following mods: PVD case Chieftang double AR sapphire Swiss ETA 6497-1 hamilton movement Swiss ETA H-3 flat top polished cannon pinion / hour wheel Display caseback Custom painted dial and relumed with tritec orange I have already ordered this baby & it will be with me in about 6 weeks as the crystal is going to Chief for AR. Now here is my dilemma....... Should I go for the Unbranded one as above.....or should I change the dial to 111h? Here is the Pic of 111h dial that Vac has: The undecorated swiss movement Vac intends to use (if I go for it)is: I have spoken to Vac and here are the options that I have (all other mods will remain the same in both the watches): A. go for the unbranded dial with swiss undecorated movement or B go for the 111h dial with asian decorated movement. Please help....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 I think if the dial were a Base, I'd say unbranded. Something about the sub seconds that kind of throws it off balance without the dial script (to me)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PATerai Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 (edited) The cheap PVD makes it look rather...cheap. Its a stunning watch nontheless, but the cheap pvd brings it down a lot imo Edited June 20, 2008 by PATerai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueradish Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 I like option 'A', that undecorated movement is really slick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old skool Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 I like the Hamilton movement. I wonder where he finds those? I think that is cool in an unbranded homage. Dial texture is nice and lume color is cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
