I started this thread to do a side by side comparison between My recent
PO Franken build and a Stock, non modded 5th generation Planet ocean for anyone whose thinking of doing a Franken build.
Both watches were purchased from Trevor and are the same other than the Franken has a Swiss eta 2824 and the other has a clone 2824 movement.
As far as the pictures go, the Franken will always be on the left and the non-modded one will be on the right.
Franken Mods include:
Gen Dial
Gen Bezel assembly
Gen Crystal
Gen Hands (hr,min,sec)
Gen Crown & Tube
I decided to pass on modding the date-wheel because I was happy with the font and I passed on the HE valve because it just did not bother me enough to change it.
The pearl was one of my biggest complaints so the GEN bezel with pearl was the only real fix for me. I've seen some fantastic modded pearls in the rep insert but I wanted to go all out.
Thanks for looking.
