i received my 111h and 177h back from vaccum last week after a full set of mods and they rock! he did the cannon pin fix changed the crowns to some i supplied, lubed up the seals, check for water resistance, died the fonts on the dial, and lumed the dial and hands with vaclume. all of the work is great but the most amazing thing to me is the font die and lume. they are really close to the same color, an off white and the lume pretty much stays that color when charged! it doesn't turn slime green!!! you really don't notice it is charged until you go into a place where it is dark enough and then it is glowing like a torch!!!! it is the coolest thing i have seen in a long time. my pictures suck and i am using vac's lume shot because i can't seem to take one of them at all. lol :lol:

enjoy,

No doubt, Vacuum is the master. Now your watches are not just good looking but also good performance.

CONGRATULATION!!

Nice couple mate,
Vacuum has done a great work on 'desensitizing' the original crisp-white dial txt - really good result altogether.

Looks like CG and crowns on both watches are from "Ruby-type" watches, so which ones were the donors? 113G and 036MM ?

Keepers, definitely... :)

cheers,
babola

yes, a 036 and a 113e. i liked the one on my 113e so much when i found out the 036 had the same crown only in ti i had to have one of each for these watches.

good eye! 8)

I just had to do it....as well as being an outstanding watch to look at I was amazed at the level of craftmanship. Now I'm on a mission mod it with an inch of its life

Oh by the way I bought a fiddy too.....

Now I can't wait for TWP 111H Modded w/ palp... Got the bracelet waiting for it.

I too had been planning to dedicate 111H to a bracelet and future 177H to leather. Strange that it would be such extreme 'weightful' and 'weightless' watches, but I figured I would have done otherwise if someone can source a good Ti bracelet separately.

if they made a solid ti bracelet i would put one on this 177h in a heartbeat but i would still switch it back and forth with leather. since i have a 113e for leather it doesn't bother me to leave the bracelet on the 111h. the shear weight of that combination is killer! i love the look and the weight. 8)
