Amazing build! truly a master builder. I was just recently reading by pure chance about these 5517s and how the latest gen one sold in 2015 for 137k Euros or so! This is looking great!

beautiful vintage build @tripdog -- always wanted an old looking rollie but i always second guess myself because id be too afraid to wear it around and damage it! wear it well!

Very nice build indeed. The Phong insert looks great, above and beyond most others. My says Hi too.

@tripdog great work man, always a treat to the sore eyes...and your writeup too was very enjoyable. One more legendary watch is born.

Pics or I just simply won't believe you.

Going to have to wait, I ordered from Phong as the price was the same with shipping from Phong Son and his pictures sucked plus Phong had a better pearl at least on the site or maybe I have them mixed up.

Yep had them mixed up. ordered from Phong Son so it should be here pretty fast.
