So let me pick your guys' brains for a minute.... I got a gen Hulk bezel with insert on the 'bay a couple weeks ago. Not cheap, but hard as heck to come by (it was jeweler-salvaged from a damaged Rolex). About 10 scallops on one area of the bezel are damaged, the metal was scraped. JonJ is going to smooth that out for me and it should be much less noticeable when he's done....
Now, I have a Hulk with an ARF bracelet, V7 case, and gen everything else (including a gen 3135 movement!) excepting the dial/insert/bezel. After Jon fixes it, I am going to have the gen bezel and insert put on, which will the make it all gen except for the bracelet, case and dial. A kind fellow member has a BP dial I will put on the watch to replace the V7 dial.
Here's my question: Would it be look gen-like to use the existing V7 case, or to switch all to a VRF 3135 case? (I already have the watch). I keep hearing how gen-like the VRF 3135 case is.
Downside is that this involves switching all to another case, and of course the very nice ARF bracelet will not fit on the VRF case.
I'm tempted to just keep all the way it is, have Mike put the gen bezel/insert and BP dial on the existing V7, maybe have JonJ do what he can to mod the case to gen (if it even needs it) and call it a day...
