Hello Guys
After 3/4 long long months, I'm really really happy to present my Xmas gift. Maybe not the last one of my own gifts... Stay tuned ;)
It's my new:

FRANKEN ROYAL OAK OFFSHORE WHITE THEMES

The Great watchmaker, the Best around here, Mr Domi did it the 1st time on a JF/J12 case.
And, it has the following features:

Gen dial
Gen tachymeter ring
Gen hour & minute hands
Serviced Baume & Mercier movement with Dubois-Depraz module
Mickey's Gen-spec single side AR Xtal
Domi's Gen-spec AR cyclope
Edge's Gen-spec DW
Thinner midcase
Recessed crown position
Thinner caseback
He built a movement's case holder (as the Gen),
etc... etc... etc...

After this built, Domi told me the pros of the JF's case. This is what he said:

"It's a gorgeous case, they make a Gen-spec construction. No need to recut the screws (after thinning the mid-case and the caseback), no need to thin the bezel's gasket), no need to mod the Gen tachy & dial, etc..."

That's why he built that movement's case holder, same as the Gen.

So THANK YOU Domi for this UNIQUE piece you made for me.


I have also to say Thx to 3 great members and friends Daytona1984, Micasol & Guru for their assistance and support.

And a special Thx to Mickey and Edge for the parts they gave me to complete this awesome piece.

Thx for watching and reading... All comments are welcome ;)

PS: I put a creamy Safari tachy ring on it (not the silver one). And I really like it as is
