Just wanted to leave a brief testimony of Nikz great work & service --

In this case, I wanted to build a 126334 Rolex DJ41 with all gen parts but the case, bezel, bracelet and movement. Nikz kindly accompanied and assisted during the decision-making process with his expert advice, and then proceeded to source watch (from TD) and the gen parts (dial, hands, crown, dw, etc).

The 126334´s white gold fluted bezel is one of its main characteristics, and white-gold plating being the specialty of the house, I could not pass up on the opportunity to try Nikz´s famous plating - the result is absolutely stunning!

To recap, this is what Nikz´s service encompassed on this occasion:

  • Watch sourcing from TD
  • Gen parts sourcing
  • White-gold plating on SS fluted bezel
  • VR3235 movement serviced
  • Part installation, watch assembly and water-testing

Here's a few pic of Nikz´s art - tried to capture the glowing angles of the plating on the bezel, although I don't believe pictures do justice on this:
