repmaster1234 49 Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) Exciting news - So a fellow in Germany contacted me through eBay about purchasing one of my bakelite inserts for his gen (I believe) 6542. I obviously agreed, and tried to match the patina of his watch to the best of my ability. Well he received the insert today, fitted it, and sent me this pic! A great feeling knowing that I helped restore this watch to its full glory. Edited March 16, 2018 by repmaster1234 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nuvolablue 2,051 Posted March 17, 2018 That's great! Have you ever thought about making one of these arabic font ones? Not sure if there is a huge market for them, but they are super rare. I'd certainly be interested! Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk I have not considered that, because as you said the market is very small. It would require me starting the whole process from the beginning (making new illustrator patterns, etc). It would be cool though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
