Wow I haven't visited my thread in a while. Things got interesting here;)

I still love this watch. I made some further improvements and I think I am finally "done"

Here's the new recipe:
H factory V1 case
Drilled out and added DSN Pre-V crown and tube
Polished rehaut (just a little)
Ultra clear Noob crystal
Swiss 6497 with decorated plates
H1 CP flattened, polished
Mystery cartel CG, polished body
Flattened and polished CG pin
DSN caseback (surprisingly accurate)


Good bye ugly H factory hex tube!!! DSN crown and tube installed. I also lightly polished the rehaut to look a little more like some of the gen reference photos I've seen.

Flattened and polished CG pin

H factory lug profile versus gen 6502

Gen 6502...looks pretty close

Pretty happy with this build. I think it's a keeper;)
Many thanks to Rolli and FGD

Now Grim, Proj and Oncyte have the best 002A builds ever made. All with Rolli's dial. Now I must ask, who's gonna build the first 009A at this level?
Great watch Grim.

Thanks Ale! This point is no longer a question to me. I love this watch! But I have found some great images that show the "9" with less curl.

Additionally, I have tried to get some decent "magic hour" pics, but the clouds keep ruining my opportunities.

New Year, new dial? Rolli make us a little dream!
Pre-A, Pre-V. What do you expect us to announce your latest masterpiece?

Quickly put on sale a new series of dials.
Nothing like a Rolli dial "as gen".

I bought one of these, that's an amazing piece, really gen-like!

Still sourcing all parts to build a 002A, but with this dial, I have to source the nicest, the best parts.

I hope to see your new baby asap, will need one !
