Is that the albino explorer dial from raffles? Looks GOOD right there...
Have you also trimmed the bracelet to look vintage? It looks like it has some wear and a bit of stretch. If so, how do you do that?Some days, its a struggle. fortunately for me all these days lined up and gave me a week of torture
The new @wildman Explorer Rose Blue.
Their clients marriage of a navy dial and guilt rose gold details, hand finished by their artisans creates an elegant combination.
Housed within a case transformed with a specialist 18ct Rose gold finish.
rep folded oyster it is almost 10 years old but they just look vintage and janky. thats why I like um
That's probably the easiest method - but I have so many watches and only two arms - plus I'm not the youngest anymore. By the time I get that much wear on my bracelets, I'll be two meters deeper in the ground. Okay, maybe that also helps to make the watches look a bit more vintage ...Duh.
You wear it and you stretch it
You can't get these folded oysters from raffles or any of the other usual sellers, can you? There was a thread about it somewhere here, but when I read it at the time, I still thought the solid bracelets were the ultimate. I never thought I'd be interested in them.
I'll have to keep an eye on the m2m section - but they'll probably be gone quickly, if they appear there at all ...

Yes you can.

Buddy, I will pay your Patron subscription.
Take it as an indefinite loan, you pay me back when you can
Okay thanks, found her. Are her bracelets in the same price range than the Italian ones? Then I will order one, when I have the first build that is worth it.
At the moment, such a bracelet would be a little overkill for the low amateur work I do with the 1016s
Maybe waiting the next 10 builds or so...

They are about 75 dollars plus shipping, they come with good end link 358. But you have to modify them to accept 2mm spring bar.Okay thanks, found her. Are her bracelets in the same price range than the Italian ones? Then I will order one, when I have the first build that is worth it.

The Italian thing seem to be high quality rep, but 500e...
Golden hour and the perfect alignment of crystal, bezel and case
