Just want to share one of my latest builds. This one took me awhile to get everything together, was always one I wanted to build but never found the right parts for the build. In the end finally put one together and I am very happy with it. It came in at 170g think the gen is 172 so it’s very close.

Stats
Noob V9 midcase
VR3135
Gen Dial
Gen Hands
Gen crown
Gen full bezel including clicks and retainer
Gen Crystal
Gen Datewheel
Bracelet I custom made of parts from gen bp and ARF

Pics throughout build

The bracelet was the hardest part to get right with this build. I’ve been through several bracelets to get it perfect. I was on the hunt for a gen bracelet but it’s impossible to find.

I took endlinks from ARF was lucky enough after 3 from ARF to get a perfect color match and gold on the sides of the sels. Fit the noob case nicely. Gmf sel fit poorly.

I bought a bunch of gen removable links and look them apart for the midlink. So used gold midlinks to build the bracelet.

Bought a wrapped gmf bracelet which was impressive. Gold was a perfect match and wrapped very well. Clasp is well done.

GMF stock

ARF stock

Gmf claps on the right look how thick the wrap is compared to ARF plating.

Pics of gmf wrap on midlinks. Gen is hollowed out what a scam.

Bracelet build

Gen midlink install look how close gmf is the left midlink is gen two to the right are gmf

Final shots. I still have to clean up polish and brush the bracelet but had to get it on before dark and enjoy this beauty.

Thanks for taking a look.

OMG bro, this is absolutely beautiful. Stroke of genius using the Noob V9 case and the bracelet composite is a masterpiece. You've really outdone yourself on this one, which is saying a lot.

Congrats man this was a long time coming, but wow it sets a new standard of excellence. Your craftsmanship is apparent at every turn. Looks like a brand new gen!

Wow Pelagic ! Nice work bro! I love what you did on that bracelet. Looks fantastic.

 

[TESLA760]

Looks great ! I have a similar build. The bracelet seems to be the hard part. I currently have a wrapped VRF bracelet. Yours looks much nicer !

 

[Mav2000]

Absolutely amazing. What did it finally cost you to put talk this together, if you don't mind sharing

Wow that wrap looks very close - I assume its better than the VRF wrap? Cus VRF is still piss yellow

Color on the gmf is much better than vrf in my opinion.

Here’s a pic from a couple months back when I was still on the hunt.
