My next Franken build is on the way,
Case shaved to gen spec, all gaskets changed by gen too, all movement parts serviced, epilame treatment for those needed, and waiting now rest of gen movement parts to arrive, maybe by end of this week.
Dial that will be modded will be there on tomorrow, gen racing hand set with all chrono hands in red, hope before end of the week.

Anyone has successfully sourced a 116519's dial ? I would like to go for a similar build and i just miss the dial..(the pic is gen):
Noob nailed this dial, so maybe try to get as parts from TD? The dealers do not love doing it, but maybe if you bundle it with your next purchase?

One gen dial is listed on Chrono24, price seems good,

The ice green is on the way, dial is ready, case too, received today the missing gen movement parts
Normally by end of next week will introduce it. But before had just finished this beauty that a great member sent me for a full servicing and work on case, changed all gaskets of course,
Gen movement
This is a very beautiful watch, all gen, and running like a champ

These two dials are genuine I bought off Chrono24 brand new in blister. Pricy yes but worth’s every cent.

Peter, beautiful watches. What base watch did you use? The noob 116519?

Interestingly these two were based on noob 116505 rose gold models. They were decoloured to get rid of the gold coating, then properly polished& brushed.

Nice. Did you use Gen crystals as well? They look super clear!
