Hi Members,

Modifications:
Athaya dial, repainted, relumed ( with the fantastic T15-4 lume from Holio Cornolio and epoxy ) by me
Bezel markers with numbers swapped with rounded stainless steel round bars, made by me
Lume pearl and hands lume made with epoxy/T15-4 mix
A new brass movement ring, made by me
Cortebert 592R machine instead of the Asian 6497
Stem rethreaded to 1,2mm by slpf
See through caseback, modification done by slpf.
Slightly domed plexi at the CB from slpf
Hands modded to fit the 592R by slpf.
Brass screws to tighen the CB
6mm thick plexi at the top
Strap and buckle made by me
Enough words, now on to the pics

Thank you, all you need for that modification is a small lathe and
some round bars in 5mm diameter

Outstanding! Absolutely stunning. I just wish the Egi wasn't so !@#$%^& big! 60mm. Crazy--at least on my 7" wrist.
