Well here she is. Many years in the making. My design, worked up by Greg and manufactured by International dial. Of course the Shamrock looks uncannily like a Clover leaf but I'll just call it my lucky 4 leaf Shamrock..... I pulled a movement from a fake Rolex with an ETA 2824. Karen was kind enough to send me the correct hands and I just canabalized a case and used the wife's 600T polished bracelet.. Unfortunately it all gets pulled apart and the correct bits go back together but I'll wear it for a few days and take a couple of pics. For now.........it's alive.... one of a kind. Frankenstein.. yes.. but my baby. Can you not hear that Irish fiddle music in the background  Pete

I have to agree Oscar. I do think they wouls sell a few. The dial is actually a darker more emerald green than in the photos. pete oagaspar wrote: I would like to see this version go to production Doc....it would be a definite conversation Timepiece and collectible as well imho!
