Guys,
it is Friday afternoon and I am sitting in my homeoffice and it looks like nobody is calling me :), so I took some pics of my latest watch which was finished now after almost 5 month when I started the project.

Taka got this watch for me from River when I was in my IWC hype beginning of this year. When I got the watch I sent the crystal to K2222 but when it came back after 6 weeks, the crystal did not look like it was coated. That was when K2222 moved his lab. So I decided to send the crystal back. During that time I purchased on eBay one Eta 7750 for this watch, it was supposed to be new but when it was installed it did not work. Begining of July I got the crystal back from Jakub and this time he did an outstanding job, Taka put the watch back together and the movement still had a problem. It lost 25 min over night, not during the day. Since it was an ETA7750 I gave the watch to my watchsmith and he worked on it. I got it back about 3 weeks ago and this watch is growing on me and I believe it will be a keeper. I am getting lots of complements when I wear that watch but I am not such a Gold fan. Anyhow, this watch with this crystall is something else.

Specs are ETA 7750 with German Day and Date wheel
K2222 coating

here are the pics ...enjoy

Standart factory lume, pretty good, you can still read the time 5h after it was charged up.
