A watch I would never wear but I can admire. The thing that always ruins it for me is the gradient bezel transition between green and blue (sorry I pointed it out)... it's never correct in any of these builds I've seenNew piece coming from my mate @Ac1013

Guys, These builds are FANTASTIC - THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING!!
May, I humbly suggest you give us the name (AND CONTACT) of the modder who made these beautiful creations and the approximate price please?
I'm currently waiting on a diamond diamond hour markers, ice blue dial, Platonia in WG BUT MADE OUT OF TUNGSTEN. It cost $US 2,805. As soon as I get it I'll post it here - he said 2 weeks time, about 2 weeks ago but you know modders! (Not complaining!).
If you know a modder who could make me a 36 diamond bezel to fit the Platonia above, I would appreciate it. The idea is to "mix and match" with the brown bezel I'll get on the watch. Also the cost for Moissanites vs industrial diamonds, that would be GREAT!!

Hello, I really liked your collection, I would like to know a little more about the 116518 saco . Does everything work well? Do you have any details? Is the chronograph and time correct? no delays?2 more builds completed and ticked off the list, very happy with how these have turned out

I am thinking of purchasing one and would like to know your opinion with this manufacturer
The watch our friend purpose here are custom made and can’t be purchased directly from any TD’s.
They are made with BTF Factory base (in this case) or Clean Factory also, with gen spec dial (SW factory for example) and custom Bezel that could be sourced by seller that sells parts (i asked couple of times where to get them without luck but for sure can be founded with a good research trought TD list)
Both factory have 4130 clone movement that in my experience works extremely well on both, chrono function is perfect too.
No delays or any kind of problem.
Hope it helps

Martin’s best customer lolSome more eyecandy for you guys this weekend
Whats the build spec on the 116576TBRSome more eyecandy for you guys this weekend
BTF base and a custom moissanite bezel and that's it
Was offered platinum plating for it but I personally don't think it's necessary, since platinum has a much colder hue than say white gold does.

Well that was pretty easy
I really, really want one of these, just can't get over the missing weight. Hopefully the tungsten cases will be up to par in a not so distant future Hi, Can you tell me where I can get a moissanite (and hopefully, one with diamonds) bezel from please? I'm hoping it's someone who can make one for me. Thanks!BTF base and a custom moissanite bezel and that's it
