Making a vintage Sub

[Akira 0]

Hi,

I was thinking about making myself a vintage looking Submariner.

I would buy a cheaper 21J of a current model o if available a model from the 90's and mod it myself.

I have no experience in modding so far and my question is, does it make sense at all?

Can I buy vintage rep submariner dials?

Can I make the dial myself?

Are there any tutorials?

 

I found these so far

Or should I just buy one of the vintage models?

 

Thanks for your help in advance

 

Edit: Thinking about the 16610 model from 1988, kind of that look

You will find it very difficult to get the parts you need, probably better to buy a vintage model. As this will look too new, you then can enjoy yourself aging it There should be plenty of threads here and on the other forums about this.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I thought so, but I haven't seen much cheapie vintage Subs around.

Most of them are Eta, but since I'm no pro in modding I dont want to

touch a higher priced model.
