I would like to share with you my yesterday experience, I have decide to go in Germany to see the master, yes Domi, so at 4 i left Paris to Germany, after 7 hours of driving I arrived in a nice village near Frankfort, ring at the number 13, and a guy open the door, it was domi.
my first impression was it is a simpatico guy, it was the right impression, Domi is the kind of person you like to speak with, even if you have to use a little of Italian, Spanish, And English, problem I don't speak German, I only understand "schize" or sheet in English.
He offer me the opportunity to assist him doing my franken 42 mm, was just WOW, AMAZING, you can't imagine all the knowledge, skills, patience it need to do one, so after this to short tribute to my friend Domi let me introduce this franken.

lwo 283 from a tag heuer 2000
gen dial and tachi
gen tube and crown
modded rep hands and super lume
AR crystal and cyclop, previously done, the donor watch was mod by domi with service, add jewels, AR
mill the case and back case
water resist

i bought the donor watch from the m2m market to fire007, it is V2 titanium grey theme, the dial and tachi from a dealer at New York, and the tag heuer on the m2m market too, movement perfect work between +0 and +3 second by day.

WOW ... a stunning outcome. The stickmarker dial was, is and will allways be my favorite AP ROO.

Wear ist well ... QUESTION; is the strap black or blue? If black; you will Need to get a navy blue shark strap for it as that was the strap that came with the watch.

Yes it is black, I am going to change it for a dark blue one, I am agree with you it will look better with the dial, but I was thinking a croc one, I am going to chek what it's look like with a shark one, thank you for the idea.
