Old School Vintage 3646 Type C Xa Mas (Lots-O-Pictures)

[marlin2284]

Hi Pam Fans,

Finished my latest 3646 build last week and I wanted to share it with you vintage PAM lovers, below is the inspiration for the watch.




This is the engraving I did on the case back with a different regiment.


Here is the watch mocked up on the right next to another build I am putting together for myself. You can see both case backs are complete with engravings. And at the bottom the custom movement I built for the build.






Her are the hands after I lumed them and aged them to look 60 years old



And lastly the completed watch ready to head to its new home in "The Great White North". I slightly aged the case and the plexies to make it look old.














Thanks for looking.....:cheers:

Movement is completely disassembles the bridges are modded by first filling in all the factory text then I engrave ROLEX markings on them. Then a brushed finish is applied and finally plated. Lastlly the movement is completely renovated, assembled, oiled and regulated. Below is the before and after
