Hello !
I’m totally fan of the Daytona grey dial. I’m looking at the Clean since many days and today I found a Tungsten version from Gold Factory !


Does anyone has any returns about this factory / watch ?
This is the link from Jtime :

116519 GOLD Factory: https://jtime.io/us/daytona-116519-...bber-strap-sa4130-tungsten-heavy-version.html

116519 Clean Factory :

Which one is the go to version ? I will Franken it a bit later but I consider Gen dial is unaffordable.
I need some advice guys 😁

Thank you very much !

Very nice !! Would like a Gen grey dial but the price will be astronomical 😅
WG plated is my idea too, hands / crown and pushers and crystal 😎

I have received some QC pics from Li Jtime :

[QC REMOVED. DO YOUR OWN QUALITY CHECK. ALSO AGAINST THE RULES.]

What do you think about ? Do you see some major issue ?

Hello,

Thanks

leaving this note for future searchers. The non-tungsten BTF version weighs in at 103g
Approved QC. Will be sending it to get white gold plated then putting a JJ meteorite dial & hands and a CF Oysterflex and crown on it.

I’ve ordered one 116519 from Gold Factory !! Finally ordered at Puretime because of the 15% with Black Friday and crypto … price unbeatable.
I will post some pics when I receive it !
I’m still waiting confirmation of @Nikz19 for the White gold platting of the Tungsen case.
My plan is WG plating, Gen hands, Gen Crown, Gen Crystal, CF Oysterflex, CF ceramic insert.

Thanks. Wouldn’t there be issues with white gold plating then?
Gold factory sells rose gold and yellow gold too so I don't see why our modders would not be able to plate them white gold mate, but I'm not an expert in this field.
