Just wondering, when you make the watch; are you also going to lube and oil everything so the watch will run smoother and is waterproofed, etc?

Also wondering what the 'anal' version tops on the very good version; so what extra or more perfected do you guys have in mind?

Hi Mark,

At present, full service of the watch is not included in the VG version. It will be extensive cosmetic mod.

It's safe to assume that the VG version is what we'd normally expect of the full structural mod; something along the line of zorro's GP. I will have my personal GP in this version. And it is not far from completion.

Also, by offering service, we are trespassing other modders' occupational boundaries and we want to avoid it.

If you need full service done along with our watch, we can arrange it with other SV/TD. No problem with that.

With Anal version, I can't reveal too much now but it will be something like making almost everything from scratch and possibly movement service. Also with hefty price tag. Lol

Also, anal version is still in planning stage. No promise with whether we'll ever go that far. We may do offer of certain upgrades to the VG customers instead to bring the watch to that 'anal' status.

ETA DW arrived a couple of days ago, but as Slaughterer62 has warned me, it is a bit too thick.

But as always, we are saying "Never say Never!" ;-D

Thanks b,

Chris stays up all night trying to put together the completed GP as early as possible.
I know he cleaned up his work bench around 8am this morning before getting some rest. Typical Chris's day since he begun this project. Part of it is my fault as i won't let him sleep. Lol
Jk

Anyhow, he is hard at work and we are working day and night to bring it to you soon.

Thanks for the interests and support! :-D

Concerning the movement, an eta hairspring replacement would be interesting if it could be done. I believe doing that would greatly increase the power reserve as well as the reliability of the movement. ?

Haha M, sorry about that. ;-)
Techy anodisation is taking longer than expected but will have shortly.

Goodness requires patience, just like cheese. :)
