Stock Silix I just finished with spare parts. Plexi, spring bars, and $8 gold hands from ebay are the only parts. Kinda amazing what you can do with lume and lacquer in a couple hours.

The brass plating on the bezel seems durable enough though

Somehow it looks better like that :)
That's what I'm telling myself, more convincing for a watch that's meant to be from 1954 [emoji4]

Hi all
I just realize that I probably never posted my Big Crown here [emoji3]
Silix case lightly modded (lugs drilled, thinned and chamfered, etc ...), Gilt-White SYL dial (5513 ... sorry), Raffles gold hands, vintage lume and hand-made leather bracelet ... I think that's all.
All work done by your humble servant @manodeoro [emoji39]
