I recently took the level 1 online watch school class and completed the disassemble, reassemble, and casing of the ETA 2801 that came with the class kit. Now I am very comfortable to start customizing and modifying some watches. It really does help to have the right tools and the Bergeon Swiss made tools that came with the kit are really great. Now I have ordered some more tools to help with dial protection , hand removal and hand setting and I am waiting for those to arrive this week... and some bezel paint that I ordered today, but here is my plan with this Stealth Moray: New hands which are flat black and white / blue superluminova, Red second with the same lume. Stealth dial and case. On the bezel I will paint the minute marks (red) and the hour marks and 15, 30, 45 (white) or I will paint all the bezel marks red, I haven't decided yet. After this steath mod I plan to work on one of the 3 PVD BRG dials that is for sale, I will put black hands on it and paint the bezel marks. ![]() ![]() ![]()

I have just a few extra here if anyone is interested. but I am considering having some more made if people are interested in customizing their Sea Devil or Moray, or having me do it.

ok Oscar, PM sent. I can do this mod with the tools I have, but I want to do it with the new tools so there will be absolutely no evidence that I was in the watch. So far my favorite new tool is the Bergeon rubber air blower No4657, great for cleaning up the movement and inside of the crystal.![]()

I have a set of hands incoming from Steve as pictured with the C3 lume....I think it will really pop on the stealth dial and matching lumed bezel against the DLC case! yahoo.gif adding mod parts and custom modding by Steve to the Benarus line will be very welcomed to many WIS ...there's nothing like owning a customized watch imho perfect.gif http://www.timetechtalk.com/view_topic.php?id=18047&forum_id=51
