JSebwc 88 Posted October 16, 2020 Some of you may recall my first attempt with customizing a Raffles dialThis was the first one..Before and after.[/url] Then I came across this gen on ebay....and I was in Awe with the dial..I had to replicate something similar the water damaged / tropical look is spectacularSo I ordered another Raffles dial and went to work..results :Its not exact but it does have the same feel to it...I really like how it turned out.The hands could be aged a bit more to match the dial but other than that I think its pretty cool.JMB Ver 2 CaseRaffles dialRaffles handsEta Clone 2824Clarks T21 domed crystalKeep an eye on the M2M forum as I think I might be clearing this and a few others out of my collection to fund some future builds..Comments and questions always welcomed.Thanks for looking.

ElvisFreak 73 Posted October 16, 2020 I read in one of the gen forum a while back that 100% of gen tropical dials have uniform, even over the dial discoloration and the guys on the forum considered the patchy tropic rather suspicious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
