Beauty!!UPDATE:

Thank you
Thank you mate, really appreciate!
Would love to know about the bezel too
I'm actually not entirely sure tbh mate, It is either SW or RB, let me check with my modder and revert back

The Sodalite hass arrived, made up with how it's turned out! It'll be the perfect companion for my rubellite

This is on my short list of builds. Very nice! Love those hour markers.The Sodalite hass arrived, made up with how it's turned out! It'll be the perfect companion for my rubellite
Thanks mate, definitely worth adding to your build list, especially with the rubellite in progress too

I love this piece, especially for the fact that mimics a WG daytona, so will last forever! But i’m fully in love with the YG diamonds one, cant stop to see at it! But after starting with one this will become very fast an addiction
How's the SACO/other builds coming along @KruisingKhaos95 need some Wednesday morning porn to look at

My black tahitian MOP dial will arrive with them so I'll have that swapped into one of my BTF 509 bases as soon as its here
You using Martin too? Noticed the background of the white gold eye of the tiger pictures look very similar to the background of the QC pics of my buildAsked him for an update today funnily enough!

I think this sodalite blue dial is my next build after my Ember Daytona...The Sodalite hass arrived, made up with how it's turned out! It'll be the perfect companion for my rubellite
But I'm also leaning heavily towards a tungsten 116505 rose gold black dial
Too many nice choices.... too little time

I've always been tempted by the arabic dial with baguette bezel too... fuck meYou using Martin too? Noticed the background of the white gold eye of the tiger pictures look very similar to the background of the QC pics of my build

Yep the arabic dial slaps! Prefer it on the non baguette bezel though for some reason.
Baguette bezel and markers just looks right
I don't know the name of the guy who does the actual moddingYou using Martin too? Noticed the background of the white gold eye of the tiger pictures look very similar to the background of the QC pics of my build

my dealer sources the watch and parts and has it sent to the modder directly, who assembles and wraps the watch before its sent out to me
