 So, before I decided to take the plunge with a real Doxa I had this idea to mod my 6309. The dial, chapter ring and hands are from Noah Fuller. The bezel insert is from Harold/Yobokies. Also the case is blasted. My 6309 was probably a cobbled together version that I got cheap so I didnt mind modding it. It was intended to satisfy my Doxa itch but never got a chance as I pulled that trigger before the mod parts got here! I think it came out great. Sort of a Seiko meets Sharkhunter with a Sinn touch.  Not great pics but you get the idea.
