repmaster1234 49 Posted April 28, 2018 (edited) Recently finished up a 1016 tropical dial build for @JimboJames1972. The dial is my own creation, the hands are clarks which I added some "tritium damage" to, and the rest is Cartel. It was a fun little month-long project Edited April 28, 2018 by repmaster1234 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

repmaster1234 49 Posted April 29, 2018 Thanks all for the compliments I only do this for fun. I didn't charge Jimbo for my labor, only the cost of parts. He also volunteered to make a equivalent payment to a charity of my choice, which I thought was a nice gesture. I won't be picking up anymore projects in the near future, but your interest in my work is much appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
