Lovely watches, where did you get the leather strap and suede straps from your first post?

Love this one especially:

PO Box ok? I'll let you ship your scrap watches so I can learn more emoji6.png
Jokes aside, thanks mate. Means a lot to hear from fellow horology fans.
 

Au contraire-I thought someone should pay your watches a visit....

JMB w/ Yuki Dial? 

Gen Rolex case, WSO bezel, I believe the dial is Vietnam. movement is Swiss ETA 2842

It is a tripdog build.

Thank you. The tan one is from Bob's watches, came with my Gen 16013 and the rest are from an eBay seller 02straps. Great guy with some cool products. I almost buy all straps exclusively from him now.

Not really.

I've never done anything clever!

Small tweaks make a big difference. Shaved the CGs and finally got close to making the ever lusted after ghost bezel.

 

Need to shave the insert a bit to get the recessed fit.

 

Strap or bracelet? Pick your poison.
