Hey Pap, maybe our expected frankens can be friends!

Now that I sold my 007 franken I've pulled enough money together to finish my next franken. This one will be a definite keeper next to my FrPO. I wont throw the details out just yet ( some of you already know what it is... :D ), but I am going to post some inspirational photos up................................................

Here is the shell for my project, my newly aquired FrSMP 2254.50. All I kept on this was the case (note the modded cgs and correct HE position)...I parted the rest of the watch.

For those wondering, the dial your seeing is off a Seamaster 2230.50.00 (none Amercas Cup)

More to come. My watch should be done by the end of next week (pending if my parts show up)

I like the PO seconds hand used on the watch in the 2nd picture. I've seen gens modded this way with the applied marker dial, but never a rep. Looking forward to the results!

Very nice, calling dibs when you decide to sell it.
