Add an applied logo call it "Gresham GMT-1" Next I would remove the Invicta engraved rotor and replace it with a Plain ETA Rotor. With the words "Gresham Watch Company."Bouncy.gif engraved on the new rotor. Last edited on Sun Mar 30th, 2008 04:41 pm by Simon_Leung |

I do have a nice fully decorated 2824 that I had thought about putting in it and I have a Grey anodized invicta rotor that would make a better color match to the Tungsten tide watch.. though I suppose I could use the regular decorated rotor too...

I've never owned an Invicta, therefore I don't know what the quality is like. From what I have read so far in this forum, it has made me think twice about buying one.

Chris, is that an all Tungsten case? It must be damn heavy if it is! We use solid Tungsten weights in our Cub Scout Pinewood Derby cars because it is much more dense than lead. Cheers, Griff BTW, I like the mod! How did you get the logo off without damaging the dial? I would have assumed Invicta stuck it on there with Super Glue :D
