I picked the base franken up via M2M (link below). Funny enough, this genuine dial was originally purchased by me from eBay a number of years ago and put in a 3k-based franken. The dial is pre "swiss made" text at 6 o'clock. I personally like this era of genuine dials the most.

From there, I purchased additional genuine parts from eBay. These included a genuine clasp and a genuine white gold hand set. I sent the watch and parts to SpongeBob and gave him the go ahead to make it 100% the best he possibly could. He added a new PPM engraved movement with custom date wheel and a genuine Patek gold rotor. He also serviced the movement and refinished the entire case. Pictures don't do this build justice. Everything is perfectly aligned and everything functions perfectly. He knocked it out of the park on this build.
The watch comes with a like-new genuine strap cut to 7.5" as well as an aftermarket khaki strap (also like-new) ($110) that is cut to 7.5". The watch will come in a rep Patek travel case (~$100?) as pictured.
