So finally got my donor watch for my aventurine Arab marker dial, which hopefully should be back with me soon as JJ has it to fix the markers, that my lovely wife decided to knock off 🤣🤣🤣.
BTF Daytona is the donor watch, was thinking of going with clean again but decided to go with BTF due to some people saying the case is better.
Hoping that I can get the new dial installed in the next week or so.

Thank goodness that awful BTF dial is getting replaced. JJ’s aventurine will look nice.
I wouldnt say awfull to be honest, it looks very very good except subdials are a little too shiny, other than that looks extremly good…
Also i wanna show you 500 black variations… they have shiny and matte subdials
Same light same position of the picture different watch

I know there are variations in gen, but I have a gen 500 and a BTF 500. The BTF is unsightly, IMO. I converted it into a Wildman Azure and it's much better lol

To each their own.

Such a pleasure watching this come to life

Second shot is my hand in grey Germany btw 🤣
🥰
Thank you for not asking for royalties Mr. Hand Model! ;):cool::D
It really was neat watching the process/journey from start to finish... and was long overdo for him in my opinion. I'm happy for JJ, it's a timepiece he should be proud of for many years to come.

Yessss awful subdials but incredible markers and build quality is wayyyyy better on btf
I couldn't find the originals so these are all low res grabs but this is my BTF compared to my gen...



^^^And that bright red Daytona text...



I couldn't stand those subdials.
But bro that's a million years old. The new ones are thinner but same level of awful 😂😂😂😂

NOOB 509 which started life with a black racing dial, sold to Krusing then back home to papa - fantastic meaty-whore dial and WG plated by nikz.



Meaty whore.

Is it me or does it have blue in the dial?
Anyone have an opinion on the QF meteorite ?

I've seen this one in real life. The thing is, it looks good, but perhaps one of the most unreadable dials on the Daytona in low light...

Has anyone built a rose gold 116505 meteorite dial? - seen a few tungsten examples but haven’t seen great reports of them. I know JJ has the dials, but hasn’t seen any real life builds.

Something like this

Guys where can one get the highest quality meteorite dial?

I am looking to buy a clean SS oysterflex daytona and want the best dial possible.
