jakethemouse 0 Posted August 25, 2016 I originally set out to build a Tudor DayDate after being inspired by Jerkstores build-a-long frankenjust guides, But fell in the love with the 1016 after reading the many threads, especially LHOOQ and 1680's Vintage 1016 build projects. I was lucky enough to snatch up a Whoopy dial which is gorgeous by the way and the catalyst for this build. I couldn't wait for the bracelet to come so quickly made a leather strap to wear it before I ship her off to get lumed. Build details are below. -JMB V2 - with engravings -Whoopy 1016 Dial -JMB Hands (purchased TC Hands on M2M but still not here after 4weeks ) -Gen crown -Gen Spring bars -Mary Oyster 7836 bracelet on the way -Clark T21 -2824-2 movement -endlinks (please recommend) -to complete the look anyone know where I can get an old Rolex box?

jakethemouse 0 Posted August 25, 2016 Very well done. Enjoy the vintage - and I also do like Your daydate:) Thanks Guys. The Daydate wasn't put together by me but was completed by Marrickville over at RWI (I think his on here too). If you live in Australia and need a 28XX movement serviced he is your man. Pleasure to deal with, reliable and quick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
