It depends on how you clean your Watch.

If you are using a micro fiber cloth you will removing the Layer after a time.

But with normal wearing a long time. If a part of a layer removed it’s no Problem to replate only a spot maybe the Case Back.

So what is the recommended cleaning method to avoid removing material, even at a very slow rate?

A normal eyeglass cleaning cloth slightly damp with water.

Very nice mate, wear it in good health.

The aftermarket bezel seems quite good, how does it compare to a gen SS?

Micasol May I ask why you shaped the case and how you brushed the bracelet?

Yes you could bro, because noob case is not gen like especially on left side, there is like a bumbling, under lugs not good too.

Will post pics of tools I use for brush band,

Hi Micasol,

Awesome work.

Could you share where to source that almost gen-like bezel?

Micasol is top! Amazing build

 

[Nur-Uhr]

Micasol awesome work again. You are buidling very nice Daytona's.
I like you "ice green" one most of all your builds - this is a real beauty.

Looking forward to get also a nice "Micasol build" in near future

Thanks bro, will take tomorrow a pics of both????. They are clearly different, not the same soul, the “Tour de France” is more a spring built, will see on tomorrow how it’s look with the blue rubber B band, despite “ice green“ is a daily beaters, perfect in every situations and seasons.

Will be a pleasure to built your own “micasol” one.

Crystal M2M @bananasplit
Crown and tube same
Pushers from AD
Movement from 3 of my sellers Rolex movement parts, I bought all sparingly and rebuild the movement, all original even screws.
