Pre V Posted May 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 Thank you my friends! I have totally forgotten to include that magnificent 5218-202/A that our own very watchmaster Watchdog has completed a couple of weeks back, in this "threesome". On the Prevendome / PreA menu list next: (I know I am going crazy) 2 x Pre A 0002 1 x 5218-201/A I hope to complete the next 3 pieces in the next 48 hours. For those who have gotten FGD's 2nd Generation dials, the feet fits like a glove on a Swiss Unitas. (compared to the 1st generation which took me quite sometime to accomplish) Am definitely awaiting FGD's next prevendome offerings of 203/A which I am eagerly anticipating.

StormTooper4 Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 A Sweet trio indeed, really very special ST4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK471 Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 Awesome trio. All these projects made possible by FGD just bring a smile to my face. Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishgodeep Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 WOW indeed ....I've only ever seen all three dials together in my own watch box ....much respect to you Pre-V as my best customer by far!! The watches look fantastic builds as well - I prefer the thinner indices on the 2nd Gen dials but having said that - the 009 looks absolutely beatiful in stealth black with that strap combo! The 201/A on a shark is the all time classic - another superb combo!! Thanks once again for support and congratulations on 3 beautiful watches. Next I want to finish the Pre-V / Pre-A set with 5218 203/A , 205/A 218/A and Pre-A 001 - the only issue is I don't know how many of each to make - there's not a lot of people out there who want to have the complete set and I doubt there'd be more than 10 people interested in 205/A , 203/A or even 218/A...?? Pre-A 001 is a little easier - with this fitting 001/004 and PAM 40 I think it would be a lot more versatile!! Cheers FGD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmeister Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 Great looking set. Wear them well. And none of this would have been possible without FGD's efforets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers FGD My friend, it's an honour to be able to get a hold of your Prevendome offerings and I am grateful beyond words. I am definitely interested in your 203/A, 205/A, 218/A and Pre-A 0001, so much so I might just grab 2 or 3 of each dial... The reason I am so excited about your project as I forsee that in a couple of years, should you decide to retire, it'll be really rare as hen's teeth to get a hold of them anymore. My objective is to complete the possible PreV and PreA while the cooker is still hot! when it simmer downs, it'll be really a miss which I will regret in years to come. Your discontinuation of 202/A I hope you will bring it back to the Prevendome scene again as there has been a tons of PMs that has been sent to me regarding Watchdog's work on mine. I am officially "Prevendome Insane" but am loving every bit of it... Watch this thread, it'll be a Threesome that will evolve into a 7th Heaven......
