So, it's been almost 7 months since joining and even though my original mission was to get a 508 (which I did), I then slowly turned my attention to custom/fantasy builds. I know some people hate these and prefer and that's fine, but I'm

As I was saying... I know that some people hate the fantasy builds, but I'm actually very much into them right now, since they offer a new, fresh and most important, unique take on this hobby.

I have 1 build from each of these 3 masters - @black_shark, @Pratt and @Natas78 - each with his own distinctive style, but all share a passion for excellent quality and attention to detail.

My first one was a Black_shark Burnt Brownie Radiomir. This was my first 47mm Rad. At first I thought it was too big for my puny wrists, but the more I wore it, the more I didn't cared about being too big. This one has everything - awesome radium burn dial, Kampfschwimmer engraved caseback, vintagized plexi, soldered lugs, Brevet crown.

Second one was Pratt No.150. This is Pratt's custom Siluro II green dial with a super awesome mega raised plexi on a darkened brassed case. Needless to say the overall feel and flawless execution.

Last but not least, my latest acquisition, a custom build from Natas78. This has a custom Radiomir Nebulosa Cali dial with Nate's special patina on a brassed and aged case. It also has a raised plexi and engraved caseback. It runs on a two tone Molly 3602.

So, my deepest respect and gratitude to all 3 masters builders for their excellent work. Looking forward the next piece!

@Rotador, @razl - Thanks guys!! Your comments are much appreciated.

@gooseman - Thanks! Pricing depends on the elements of the build. One thing for sure, you can't go wrong with any of them.

@nycrounders - Thanks man! Now the next phase is to follow your footsteps and attempt to build one myself. Although I feel I still need to learn/practice quite a bit in order to have a satisfactory result.

Thanks Ale. You're partially responsible for my PAM sickness (9 so far) and your guide is the most complete and in depth document on all RWI. If only the other Brands had something similar...
