freddy333 Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 A beautiful creation, Tribal. A couple of things to consider are replacing the rep bracelet with a gen (or, at least, a proper vintage gen clasp without the 2 grooves on the flip-lock) & swapping the modern 703 Triplock for the older 702 (which has the 3 dots closer to the coronet). And, if you are feeling daring, resizing (widening) the index markers at 6 & 9. That makes a big difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cib0rgman Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 @Tribal, what process do you use to bleach the insert I have a pwmf insert from helen wong and would like to fade it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribal Posted January 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 Thanks guys, I know there is much more to do. This is not my watch and I took what was available for the watch. Vintage Crowns are damn hard to find this days. I have them installed on my vintages. To bleach take some chlor stuff like clorix or similair.

Thanks for the advice I tried that before, but did not work. How long do I need to let the insert in Bleach Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
