But I have made small changes to the hands to make the curves match the teeth and changed the shape of the lume to match and squared off the lume at the bottom. - steve Yes, this is a real improvement on the hands. Somewhat subtle difference makes for big difference in the whole look. And I like the red dial! Can we see the red with black hands?

The 5 minute markers will be thicker than the others I like the new hands but this would mean increasing costs again and I also like the first hands We can do a lot but I also want to keep it affordable so I would suggest to stay by the first hands style. I can't wait to get the quotation and confirmation if the bracelet can be made but even if not the Megalodon will come, I want it you want it so we will find a way.;)

Ralf, Steve I know the dial #1 is set and this is a thread for a second but was wondering on the bezel for the #1 dial, I like the 20 min all marked out like it on this dial version as opposed to the 15 mins for the first. Is it set in stone about the minute markers on the dial bezel? regardless I have already reserved #18 in some form of this watch. It is a must have for me. Thanks again for everyones time and input on this beast.

I'm wearing my Benarus Barracuda right now (thanks to Rick, and whoever the original owner was, #65/100) and it has a polished hour hand. I think the Megalodon with blood red dial might look better with darker hands, black, off black, brushed dark grey, etc.

I need to draw the original hands, then I can make them black, I will post black hands on red dial for you to see... also I will post a bezel with numbers at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 it will be a few hours before I can get to this, but it will be tonight. -steve I will also add thicker 5 min marks on the chapter ring Last edited on Tue Apr 7th, 2009 07:23 pm by Steve Laughlin |

Read Ralf message above. we can't do the hands. they would add too much cost to create new molds. I can try a stainless bezel and I will draw the old hands first and post red carbon with black hands

Ok Steve, I liked the old polished/matte hands also, It's just ideas kicking around for now right? Red Carbon , old polished hands, and stainless bezel, the numbers on the bezel are not that important, 15 or 20 is fine, I havn't any software to do it myself to get a look see. If you can fine, if you can't, it's ok too. I'm sure you are busy enough as it is. Laterz..........Dan Last edited on Tue Apr 7th, 2009 08:52 pm by suitekids |

original hands, redrawn to show details and possible options? I need to work on the bezel ideas after we get past the dial stuff. too complicated to do all options at the same time. Last edited on Tue Apr 7th, 2009 09:55 pm by Steve Laughlin |
