Just in from #Noleex. Custom build based on ARF GMT base with Noleex paint mod insert and GMT hand, VRF date wheel, GMF v3 dial and full work up on SH3186 movement. Enjoy the photos!

Yes in person it looks perfect. The highlights in the photos are just reflections.

Overall great build, but SH3186 is your weakest link. That jumping hour spring is waiting to break, keep some
spares or swap with gen.

Noleex replaced the spring as part of the service.

Technically it's not a franken, a franken requires to mix with gen parts

Frankenstein was created with a mixture of human parts. This watch was created with a mixture of watch parts.

But I understand the Webster’s dictionary for watch forums might state any Franken build must include gen parts, so for that....I’m sorry.

No need to be sorry, I was just letting you know of the meaning of this expression in the rep watch community
