dluddy Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Fresh back from final assembly up north. This was an iOffer 2892/Soprod PR based 028 (Thanks for the tip FGD) that was the perfect base to work with. Mods done include: PVD Finish - Leached, Bead blasted, and re-PVD'd (DLC) (Thanks Rolli) Ziggy Vintage Lumed Dial and hands Genuine PVD crown from Turkey Ziggy fabricated Crown tube - crown now springs open as genuine Custom fabricated cyclops (Thanks Marco) ETA 2892 with Soprod PR module (Same as genuine) Lello Datewheel (almost - needs to be replaced as it had an issue) Metta Catharina Strap with A series PVD Thumbnail Buckle (Russian Reindeer hide from 1786) Another RWG Group Effort and he results are stunning - Probably one of the nicest PAM's in the collection Special thanks to Ziggy, Kruzer, FGD, Marco, Rolli, Lello Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genebe Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 wow... stunning! It's a shame that you couldn't have delayed the project until you could afford a NEW reindeer hide strap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHRONOZEN Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 very nice combo pvd + brown strap = A1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishgodeep Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 That whole combo looks superb Dluddy .... Rolli's PVD is excellent IMHO and the whole watch is just brought to new levels with RG's aged tritium lume and the improved SSS cyclops ...just one step away now! An Iconic "neo-vintage" and all time favorite PAM for me. I just got mine back as well and it hasn't left the wrist since!! Congratulations and enjoy !!
