Help modifying AP Ramon

[commandozx]

Hi guys

Merry Xmas and a happy new yr
I m on the verge of ordering a AP Ramon however as u all know the color of the AP logo suppose to be gold instead of white. Other than that,it's a good rep. Any one know who does modification? I was thinking of using a AP rubberclad Gold AP logo to swap.

Wonder anyone did that before

Pls advise tks so much again

good luck trying to get these logos off the dial without completely facking them and the dial up. they're more than likely glued directly to the dial.

OP - good luck and keep us updated.

its a easy mod ... log as you got the logo and the right tools... if not don't even bother attempting it !!!

see if u can order a logo when you order the watch..

It's a long shot but worth a try..

P.S.- I have the DR on a gen. brown AP rubber and the watch is

amazing....The only mod I think is really nec besides the strap is

AR on th ecrystal because the dial is so beautiful and the AR would

bring it out so nice...Good luck

I think you should be able to print the metallic logo on a sheet of black plastic and cut it into the right shape, then glue it to the dial. The cheapest method would be using a laser printer and metallic heat transferred foil, but that will melt the plastic support plus it won't give you good details. You need to find a professional printer that can print with metallic paint on plastic or some of those guys that do metallic embossed lettering on cards and shit and hope they are willing to do a job this small for the cheap, or order a batch of them and sell the rest here to cover part of the cost.

I think it would be cheaper to just order a Rubberclad RG dial from a TD than to try to get a logo custom-made and metalized. Pop the logo off the dial and place on Don Ramon dial... But then there are also issues with removal and attachment.
