What started out as an "ultimate with correct 10" swiss movement DSSD It had a horrible almost free spinning bezel, that when I tried the floss trick just made it worse... I sent it off to pbdad to see if he could fix, and get the pearl mod, ended up (why the hell not,) with his works package:


-relume including full stripping of the old lume
-pearl mod
-single AR
-BK dwo
-paint mods to insert and ringlock text
-satin dial varnish
-braclet buffing and rebrushing
-sealing hev
-pressure testing to 4-5atm

He also had a "flat top triangle bezel", but after looking at it, I thought it almost indented too much and was far more noticable than the slight curve of mine, plus the numbers weren't as correct imo.... kept mine...


Oh and the lume shot:

^ looks good dude! If you did the v7 dial marker swap this would be damn near perfect.

I'm sending mine back to pb for a few minor mods to make mine perfect. As much as I love the bright white bezel numerals the gen does have platinum flecks in it so I want to replicate that.

I also did the dental floss trick a while back and has finally caused my bezel to spin freely so I'm swapping the case and bracelet to a brand new one. Once I remove the extra dental floss my current case (pb brushed bracelet, sealed hev valve and ring text paint mod) will be for sale so look out in a month or so!

New dial or just markers?

That's so minor, I wouldn't bother, I held the gen and never noticed the "speckles", I doubt anyone else will either...

The rotor is just wrong. I don't know why. But it is a A2836-2 without the day wheel.
