Gentlemen,
here's an extended post about an elegant and comfortable (due to CG absence) watch for everyday use which suits almost any wrist. It's not a rep, it' s a totally custom and unique build inspired by a kind of elusive Rolex Rolerai from 1954 but with a faded white Albino dial.

High precision Molnija movement from 1961 is to be totally reworked and heavily modded.

That's an amazing build ! Did you do thst all by yourself ? The dial, engravings on the movement and caseback ? 😮👍

It looks so clean, simply gorgeous.

That's absolutely fascinating. I also love your Panarai, but this Rolex is one of my favorites.

Well done 😀👍. I wonder what will be your next build and I hope to maybe be able to afford one of your watches one day 😊.

What a stunning build. I had never seen that watch before but would consider purchasing for myself.
