Hey all, my old tornek Rayville was just listed m2m by another gentleman.

You may want to hop on it!

A Squale 1521 militaire is going for 3k for a 2017/8 model. But it beats paying 5 figures for damn sure. I came across a LIP dial and a Radiation dial for 400 a piece and same for the bezel. Crazy prices or not I’m in love with the Vintage Blanc’s and will add one to my collection

Reviving this thread, i was looking at the phong blancpain, for 950 is it worth it? At this rate I’m getting desperate for a vintage one and i may have to pay that much for a BP

I dont think so personally.

Some news of the FF BUND 3H ... going nicely :)

Dial is ready for lume work but I need to make a custom handset with larger minute hand and lolipop second hand

Next week I'll do the casework and engravings ...



Hi buddies
For those who wonder if I ever finished that build ... answer is YES and you can see it THERE ...

@manodeoro yes! I for one, was wondering. Amazing build sir. And if you would provide your services (hands, casework, engraving, dial, insert, etc) to other modders, I sir, am first in line :)
