Just a new one but I usually put them here to have a record.  Silix case, tropic 21 Clarks, drilled and reshaped, polished, 2mm bars, raffles bracelet, raffles dial relumed and matte sprayed, gold hands aged and relumed to match, vintage pearl.

Very nice again, but surely you have about ten of these already? Or is this one made to sell?

I like to build stuff.  I try new things to do them better.  I record them here to give other people ideas and I sell them after I get tired of them.  Sometimes I make them because someone has asked me if I have another and I might have the parts.  I never build them to order.

How would you learn how to screw up a speedy without me?

Not criticising! I love your build threads. That speedy bezel was definitely defective btw, having now taken bleach to several other bezels, that one was weird - not sealed or something. I reckon the paint would have washed off with water in hindsight!

@NCRich Did the Silix case come with a movement holder+ tabs to fit in a 2813(I presume)?

Yes, it came with all that.  Would fit a 2836 as well.

Haha @Theviking I wouldn’t even know where to start on a project like this, may keep an eye on M2M in the future though ;)

If you're happy doing fiddly and high detailed  work look up Rich’s other how2's if not ask him to put one together for you.

Beautiful build  - as always.  Thanks for sharing. I’m waiting on my silix to arrive, and your build threads help with vision of what it could be.
