TD for custom/mods

[Icetruck]

What dealers are known to do custom/mod builds? I read on these forums one member who mentioned how only some TD's are trustworthy for custom builds?

Don't think it matters but looking for PP Aquanaut 3KF v3 movement + SW hands + SW dial + SW cal + PPF strap.

Thanks.

Thank you.
I’ve done a bit of reading and “Lucas” also came up, as apparently great for aquanaut mods?
Also “SpongeBob” for nautilus mods.

Neither of which are forum backed modders so it is at your own risk.

Glad this post was made! I'm also looking for someone to help me with some custom builds (taking a watch where I don't see a current rep and custom building it). Would these modders you referenced be talented in this approach as well?

I've used AMF twice before and they were GREAT! It took about 3 - 4 months but beautiful work, however, this was for a watch already known i.e. Rolex Rainbow in Rose Gold with full gold bracelet. It was expensive because of the full gold but only a REALLY good expert could tell the difference before you looked inside. Hope this helps

Contact them and ask, I don't know what exactly you have in mind.
