Off-catalogue Rolex franken builds - confessions of a Daytonaholic

[Tommygunzzzz]

SACO buddies soon

 

[rankiba]

How many SACOs being build right now? I might wanna join

 

[Prizon]

awesome, I have done few of these.

Are you doing solid gold 18k? or plated

 

[Reaps]

Honestly speaking the Daytona design is just masterful. It's all the different details, if you change them you change the look of a watch completely, yet you'll never mistake a Daytona for another watch.

Even from 10ft away looking at any of these unique Daytonas, you know it's a Daytona. The Daytona DNA is so prominent.

Any photos to get us salivating?

I recently build a Tungsten SACO, will snap a pic later, it is a pretty nice watch.

P.D. Here she is, 144g

Mostly wrapped, cheaper than plating but (apparently) more long-lasting. My modder offers wrapping as a service so I will have him source the watch and parts, assemble, wrap, then send straight to me

absolutely gorgeous mate SW dial and assuming custom bezel? The stones on your bezel look better quality than the standard SW bezel unless its just the angle

Gorgeous! I considered getting this one but between the gold leaf subdial tahitian above, the black tahitian and white MOPs below I think I have enough MOP dials for now

Hehe you made a good choice. This will be my third and likely last MOP Daytona.

I didn’t have a problem until I started reading this thread. These Daytona dial / crack dealers must be rolling in it.
