Piccolo 674 Posted February 14, 2017 I've been in contact with him a bit throughout the build, and tentatively put myself down for one of them a while ago. But then that article came out and I can't justify 25k, regardless of how clever and original it is... it's only a few k off an MB&F Legacy machine, and I know which one I would choose first. Incredible work though, it's a very unique piece. Cool that he was a member on here and how far he's got in the watch world! Really friendly guy too, and clearly very very intelligent!

fatarms 7,779 Posted February 14, 2017 Wow, nice to see something came of that project. I wondered why he never finished the thread off with a final product. Seems he was a bit busy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GenTLe 1,509 Posted February 15, 2017 Wow, nice to see something came of that project. I wondered why he never finished the thread off with a final product. Seems he was a bit busy Probably because he got a little too much fame with the gen watch brand to be noticed writing on a replica forum without consequences.

Khronos 1,339 Posted February 15, 2017 Which member was that exactly? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kleen™ 45 Posted February 15, 2017 Illegible dial + crazy pricing = no way! But a big thumbs up for the effort/engineering skill put into making it happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RUSH2112 11 Posted February 15, 2017 Illegible dial + crazy pricing = no way! But a big thumbs up for the effort/engineering skill put into making it happen. Exactly what I thought. Plus, since he did a bit of referee engineering with a few new twists he could make reps! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trailboss99 996 Posted February 15, 2017 This kid is nothing short of amazing and huge kudos to MB&F for taking him under their wing. Illegible dial + crazy pricing = no way! But a big thumbs up for the effort/engineering skill put into making it happen. Mate, that's a prototype in plastic! Wait for the finished product. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peteins 3 Posted February 15, 2017 Be kind of ironic if there's a 1:1 A+++ rep that comes out next year wouldn't it hah very talented though, well done that man! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
