It's a Franken Affair - Post Your Frankens!

[Mark1937]

Would a simple crystal swap qualify as franken?

Light franken

I don't know about it being a franken, but I do like the chromabrite lume. Maybe you could tell us about the build specs.

Seeing some of these builds is quite frankly amazing, no pun intended. Perhaps I've missed the thread in my usual midnight lurking, but some of these watches are absolutely stunning. I wish I had the knowledge to be able to build something like this and finish them in the way you lot have. I found myself buying more and more Franken pieces in my collection as they feel a bit more "special"

Stellar work by all

It's a bug that you've catch.

I had to resurrect this thread to publicly thank @banananintey for the SuperFranken 116710LN he built/sourced for me. I can't decide which one looks better, but I am a sucker for that jubilee sometimes, and other times I like it OG and sometimes, again, a bit more subdued on the Sub bracelet. It's been on my wrist more than anything else since receiving it. In general, I'm curious: Which one would you prefer?

Absolute stunner - I've been so close on many occasions to pulling the trigger on a Banana build but just never got round to it.

Awesome stuff

Love the jubilee on the LN, looks fantastic. I've been debating a similar project, might have to jump in after seeing how great yours looks.
