I just picked this up from Rudy the other day and I am really digging it like some of you guys said in my other thread. The case is a little sharp and needs to rounded off a little but the lume rocks on it and the finish is great.

Soon I will send it out just for a few mods.:lolcina:

Check out my not so good pics and thanks Rudy!!

Don't ruin a perfectly good modern case by "rounding" the edges. This should only be done on vintage reps IMO.

I'd leave it just the way it is. It looks perfectly fine and if it came from Rudy, I'm sure there's a TC bracelet on there.

No other mods needed IMO unless the dates don't line up.

Great info the case, I wasn't sure on what version of the SD that would have a rounded case on it. Either way the only thing I am doing to it is a new crown/tube since this one is a little rough feeling, Rudy was also going to do this mod but he sold it instead.

It is a really great watch that is for sure. Oh and yes that is a TC bracelet also.

Thanks bc1221 for your feedback, it is greatly appreciated.

Congratulations mate. Would you consider drilling lug holes? It's something I've been contemplating for my BP.

I've always wanted to do this and do a 16660 build but it's so risky...

I'm sorry for my tardiness getting to this thread! Been bizy!
I'm glad you like it! This is one of the very first version BP SD that come out!
I have built four of these and decided that I was burn out on this build..even though it's one of my favorite builds!
Here is one example that I had over 1k in!...it was the best BPSD build I had done!
Rsh done all the case work and building it...I sourced all the parts!

Rsh sealed the HE valve for me, greased all the gaskets, install gen crown/tube and regulated the movement. Next with be a TC dial/hands. Thanks Rsh!!!!
