I contacted Lucian (@Solution6) when I received a BP hulk dial from Lucy.

The BP hulk dial is what the experts say is "best" non-GEN, so when she said she could source one, I thought cool, let's do it, although, truth be told, I honestly can't see much difference except on zoomed in macro shots, blasphemy I know, but c'est la vie ;)

Below is the result - all ready for some sun 🤞




The below started off as an impulse buy when I saw an arabic dial/dw on M2M. And of course it was a vibrant green which instantly attracted me. Then I thought, nope, fluted bezel won't do, nor jubilee. So what was a blue dial, fluted bezel bog standard CF datejust on jubilee was transformed into something very different 💪




Is it a fantasy watch?
Likely, not a clue tbh, nor do I care, all I know is that it gives me a smile, so thanks again @Solution6, exceeded my expectations 👏


And for those who love the macro shots & miniscule differences versus the original pre-raid VSF, please see below, courtesy of the man himself.









My current favourite watch roll , all the greens :love:

All 3 looking good, but the DJ extra special. You should just wear that on the 3rd, or pretend everyday is the 3rd ;)

Thank you 💪

I was wondering who would notice.
Did it as a mess initially to complete the numbers 1-11, but always one eagle eye, RWI never misses a trick :)

I waited over a year iirc & Lucy managed to get it for me.

I'm sure if ya ask a few TDs some will try source, but Lucy said at the time it was very difficult to source & unlikely she would be able to get another.

Green is not just an Irish thing but that dial on the DJ (with the snakes) made me think of St Patrick…
