Lars sent me his 42mm PO for modding. Hope he'll like the result. :)

I first installed a gen crown and tube, as well as a gen date disc, gen hands, and relumed the dial and pearl to match the gen hands. I'm quite happy with the lume color, it looks very similar to the gen lume on the hands. After reluming the pearl I putted the little piece of glass that is covering is back in place to keep the gen look. :)

The ETA clone in the watch had keyless work issues, so I replaced the entire keyless work with gen parts, and it now work flawlessly. Finally I waterproofed the watch to 4 ATM.

That's superb work Wiz, the lume is fantastic...are you doing this for the forums atm or is it the odd job here and there? It's really great stuff!

Edit: Right just reading your section, sorry wasn't aware you had a forum section.....I should be paying more attention :D
