WOW, amazing watch brother. How much did this project cost you? You think I can make a similar build, I am in my twenties, I earn ok but no that much, seeing this scared me a bit lol :D
Enjoy your amazing superfranken build.

Thanks! I’m enjoying it so far.

This one cost me just a bit over $8600 all in. Just need to take your time and find the parts over time.

Wow amazing! Did the gen pushers need modding or are they a straight swap? I have a franken 116520 APH dial build with gen case, was close to selling it not so long ago but now going to keep and maybe even finish the build with a set of pushers!

On my opinion gen crystal and gen hands you have to put on franken watch.

Add on it gen dial (116520) and gen bezel (or CF/ARF bezel) and it will be a beautiful franken :)

Thats a 116520 dial , I believe one if the old MKs of which has less reflection in subdials . I do have the gen 500 as well which the subdials are really less reflective and only gives matte look under lighting
