Relume Chopard Gran Turismo XL

Recommended Posts

Akira

Martin asked me to send him lumepowder some time ago to relume his Chopard.

I did so, but he didn't find the time to sourcing the other tools and to relume.

 

So I offered him to relume it myself to practice, no money charged :o

 

I should have never offered it :lol:

It was the hardest lume thing I've ever done and cost me way way way to much time and energy...

 

But in the end I do like the result and I hope mspangel does too.

 

Here are some pics:

small hint, the ex-tenses of lume, what are not aligned, are great to remove with sharp wooden tooth pick. Wood should not scratch the polished metal plate.. Now when I am reluming my DSSD dial again, I want to be everything in nice form
