Most of the hours of work can't really be seen on a wristie.

Looks terrible in all those angles .... Send to me, then you'll never need to look at it again! :giggle:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You must be pretty chuffed that it's turned out so well - good blue match between the watch face and bezel too. Really looks the part on the rivet bracelet. Rather envious ;)

Yeah, I'm pretty chuffed. Took me long enough to build.

Thanks, case reshaped; drilled and beveled the lug holes; drilled, tapped, and installed athaya crown; sanded and brassed the bezel with a torch, went through three plexis trying to decide. Finally wet sanded it with 5 grits of sandpaper and mechanically polished. Lot of stuff.

Oh my, that looks like something old from the middle of the past century. Look at that lume and insert, all faded. Who wants lugholes? That´s really a thing of the past. Those lugs are much too thin and the crown is oversized, it doesn´t even say Tudor on it.....Pls send it over to me, I´m antiquated and will use it as it is, You could get something modern, contemporary and nice. :)

 

 

 

Love it- great job and attention to detail over there - and the overall result is stunning! Wear it well.

That's fucking ace mate can see the work you put in if you look closely but can also easily picture it as a 30 year old gen

 

You just need to find a way to get the pearl to match the lume colour and it's perfect
