WatchGeek5711 172 Posted October 15, 2023 (edited) Hey Gentlemen, I just wanted to Show yall a build I did using Milk Case set with the unshaped fat CGs. Being in EU makes it harder to send the case to modders across the pond. So I had to as usual do all the work for myself. I been runnin into health issues for a while now so the budget was semi tight and i wanted to do the work myself as usual. ( i build quite a few watches over the years & somewhat know what I'm doing) A previous build where did it all: (Athya crown and sh*t) With this build I wanted to hit a black 1675 that doesn't look as polished down and as shiny as many on C24. This was the build when I received it: ( the Gentlemen left alot of metal on the Cgs and overall did a solid build) I knew I wanted to keep the dial as it has a nice patina (viet dial,HZ gmt movement) and I don't touch the dials myself often as they always seem to be perfect.) So I got a build sent over and reworked the case and added a Oyster + Jubilee to it. I had to manually age them both and gave the jubilee the gen like stretch (will share pics) I reshaped the entire case ( using diamond files from Amazon need to use a straight and a round one to get out the markings the straight one leaves, and softend it up: , refreshed the brushing on the lugs and polished the case to look used. Works perfect to hide the low grid sandpaper and files. i blew out the dust on the dial multiple times This was the first results: I bought a 1675 insert of ebay for roughly 80$ and like 40$ shipping (yeah but tbh it's better than those cheapo inserts and feels sturdy and looks gen like) The only thing thats lacking now is new hands. I have since added the rolex clasp to the Oyster bracelet. Let me know what you think. Total sum on this is now: Watch: 650: Straps :90 Insert :80 Amazon files: 40 Clamp: 40 900€ Edited October 15, 2023 by WatchGeek5711 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WatchGeek5711 172 Posted October 15, 2023 Before you ask I only take like 1-2 requests a year from friends to Build watches as it's always time intense. If you got questions feel free to ask. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PapaTooon 14 Posted December 23, 2023 Nice modding. How long does it take to reshape the case?Gesendet von meinem SM-G970F mit Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
