{*PCTeam*] The Class of 2014: Summary of my Builds Over the Last Year

[d4m.test]

Thanks once again gents!

This year I plan to learn servicing the dreaded 7750!!!

But in terms of builds, I have a journey of Pre-V that I must complete. I have a perfect DSN fatty Crown guard with Sead lever that I am waiting on a friend to get PVD coated for me. Then I have two cases to reshape: One will have custom PVD coating from Necky, the other will be a high polished with smooth cushion edges... pure Pre-V goodness. these will become home for some epic Pre-V builds. This will lead into my Pre-V Guide I plan to write.

In the hopper right now I have an Eddie Lee PAM029B for which I received a gen 2893 GMT movement. I will being doing the movement swap, adding a Honpo fully decorated rotor, noob 6mm Cyclops crystal, gen crown, custom tube ... The dial is with Vac right now getting his magic touch. This one will be epic.

So far I have only really changed the date wheel

Those Pre-V shark straps are truly something special

Wow, those are nice words sir. I'm not sure I deserve them yet, but I'm glad you enjoy my work!

Let me know if I can help you on your Pre-V watch journey.

Really great work this year M! I am looking forward to see what kind of crazy franken builds you come up with for 2015. Still waiting to see that black dialed Monte Carlo. Oh oh I just outed you for being a closet Rolex/Tudor lover...haha
Kidding aside your 5513 was a beaut.
Have a great year bro'

 

[GBOGH]

M came to his senses and realized the Monte Carlo is way to small for his wrist after trying on mine.

Thanks Hugo! I can't thank you enough for helping me out on those builds. I should include those vintage Rolex builds in my summary

the bracelet and the pushers almost save it from looking like a lady watch on my wrist!!! Ha!
