nice homage there- thought of doing any vintagising of case or dial/ hands?
Thanks! No...Scratching cases in the sand, dipping dials in tea, crackling crystals with heating flames and ripping them on concrete walls...Not my stylesubtlelaugh.gif
Old is old, new is new: Imitating old by damaging the new is not what I do...
I'm not trying to build something fake who look like it been through battles: Just imitate the style of the original for the pleasure to own it for a 1000th of the price and still housing a great movement making it LONG lasting.
Remember that those originals was new and shiny on them first day...
Wearing a fake battle-endured watch is like wearing a fake Rolex on quartz in my eyes .
