I got my SMP Bond model from Fakemaster today.
All I can say is that its just ridiculous! Its absolutely fantastic. Will post my impressions in a couple of days with some shots as well. Its just that I´m like a moron right now staring at the thing all day!

Thanx Fakey!

Yes, the review is coming. I wanted to do it right, and post the review after i got a good impression of it. Until then have a look at this wonderful piece:

This was one of my very first reps, and is still one of my very favorites. Fakey builds a great watch waaaayyyyy cheap.

From where are you gonna source the crown, bezel and hands if you dont mind me asking? You sure the Seagull 2824 will fit in the case?
Keep us posted.

I'm going to butcher another SMP for most parts inc hands if I don't go 2824.
If I do go 2824 I will buy gen hands.
I've just got a highbeat 21J movement I could use but the datewheel isn't correct.

Anybody know anywhere that sells datewheel overlays ?

Keep us posted.

I may consider doing upgrade kits consisting of improved Bezel insert, Crown and longer hand sets if anybody would be interested ?

I knew this was going somewhere when all of your posts were here.

I'm just on a personal quest at the moment but if anybody else wants to do it I thought I'd just mention I have found a decent source for parts.
