Hello, I’m trying to do a Frankenstein build of a vsf 126334. Do you know what part numbers I would use for the fluted bezel, hands, dial, and crown?
Thanks

CF 126618LB
Ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob CF seinen Beschichtungslieferanten gewechselt hat oder ob es sich nur um ein schlechtes Exemplar handelt, aber die Farbe dieses Exemplars ist schrecklich


Gen-Kristall
Datumsrad der Generation
Neu vergoldet mit 18 Karat Gold



Perfekt

Best to let the man enjoy some time off with his family. He'll get back to us all soon enough. I'm drooling over my Franken 126710BLRO and Panda build from him too 😂

How did you find a case that would accept so many gen parts? I’ve purchased a 2824 case and would like to add a gen bezel and perhaps crown but I’m not sure if that’s a possibility with said case.

Nice builds @Nikz19
The YG Day date with onyx dial is especially cool. How good do you consider the dial?
