Guys! It has been a hectic day so I did not have time to write earlier but today I received my best watch ever!
Guys, the transformation is crazy.
Daniel’s work is truly next level. His attention to every minute detail, his vast knowledge about vintage Daytona, his passion about the hobby, it all results in true magic. He is not a modder. He is an artist and an amazing human being who I hope I can now call a true friend!
After numerous 6263s that I had over the years, the extraextra 7750 one, the dw 7760, dw mystery movement, dw based val 72 piece etc... here is the final one, the one finished in a way I always wanted my 6263 to look like. After two years of obtaining parts, after two months in Cosmograph4ever’s workshop...
Let me introduce:

Yellobird and all other guys, thank you for your kind words. It’s been a pleasure to work on this beautiful project and I’ve made several new friends along the way, sharing the passion for vintage Daytona‘s.

A bit of behind the scenes from The Artist:
Hi! You have done a magnificent job, congratulations!
How did you put the pinion of the little hours?
Amazing job and thread. Picked up some info I'll need to on my quest for a budget thinner 6263 with current gen Marv/Cartel as a starting point 
looks like a Valjoux 23 is another option maybe if it can fit....
