okabum 0 Posted January 1, 2010 Hi. I wanna share my creation, after 6 months gathering parts, I can say I've finished (for now), I will change the dial by a new one, this one has a little scratch , but that at 4 am and did not allow for more. I must wait until Ross made some new. Some interesting facts. * The strap is Made by Jacobs http://www.jrartesania.com * Buckle and manufactured brass ring made by Vikingo99 * DSN Case, rear glass replaced and added a plexi domed, with steel crownguard pin. it looks like nipples . * Ross Dial, resin applied in numbers. * Movement, Special Cortébert 616, revised, oiled and adjusted. * Engraved lugs, Rolex on the bridge and the skull in the buckle. This latter is an invention, and I liked, so I´m going to put in the clocks that I make. Made by Okabum * Special hands Cortébert. Made by okabum * Lume on dial and hands slightly aged, Made by okabum * Installation and adjustment Made by okabum * Solid caseback is from a DSN 3646, engraved looking like a real one, changing initials. After all this, sorry for the photos but is the most that gives out a HTC Diamond. Hope you like it. some of my other works, I´ve managed to engrave between lugs, bridges, casebacks, dials, no matter if surface is uneven. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
