Thanks for the detailed summary there. As a person who enjoys DIY mods, the platinum paint mod is something that I am very keen on trying, largely because it is relatively cheap and easy. The V9 LV will be my first rep but I cannot quite justify spending hundreds on crystals and inserts (yet).
Oh and also, the one I had ordered is on a 2836 movement. I understand that if one is to go franken, it would be better to have a 3135 as the base right?
Well, That is true if you want too go all the way with a all real but case. If you plan on keeping your watch and don't care about the fact that the hand adjust opposite, no. Keep the 2824 one. You can still change everything on it but the movement and date wheel and you would have too cut the feet of the rolex dial.
