Thanks! This was my first ever build and case reshaping that I competed some years back. Started off as a JK 5512.

just finished my first 5513 too. So I get the emotional attachment to that first build. You know all the places you messed up but still you can't bear to part with it 😁

It's a nice colour and thick font... numbers look a little close (especially the "20") to the inside and it needs a new pip though! @ronin007 - Have you seen this one?

Are Tiger Concept and TC the same thing?
seems that TC cases are a rare thing but yet the Tiger Concept website is up and running?

Anyone can point me towards some documentation on TC and what that means?

That would be a fantasy build, no date and gilt, why not! 👍
Right on. One of my things is putting together favorite bits and pieces into fantasy watches that were never made. No date Tudor 76100 gloss gilt dial in the style of the Sub 5508, in a Sub 5508 case...now that would be near perfect to me.

Gotta figure out what to do with my Breil Manta. Find either an replacement, original style quartz, an auto that would fit or just sell it. Hmmmm
