Nicely done brother!! Looks great!

Did you replace the date wheel or just epoxy the new one to the existing one on the movement?

Enjoy it!

Did you rework the case from the top or from the back in order to have a gen like profile? Did you use Dremel or made by hand?

It doesn't hurt.

Beautiful piece, the case is really better now, great work!

How do you relume without luminova, only pigment?
