It turned out really well. I have followed Bart's thread with great interest, it is a fascinating process. I hope one day I will be brave enough to start trying to make some dials myself. What do you make them on? Are blank dials available?

Ok guys..

excuse the bad picture

I cannot stand the thin, ugly looking cartel bezel any longer!! What's next?

The Phong case looks perfect but I don't think I can bring myself to pay that kind of money.
MQ looks weird in the side photo.
The Yuki 5510 seems ok but the bezel is not even with the case side as it should be.

Anyone have experience with the Ruby's 6538 case? (Rubyswatch.com). Looks like Phong to my eye but with a rougher finish.

Help! I need to choose a case to take my 7924 to the next level. After that it's a gilt dial when funds allow.

Ruby's case looks good to me,it is 700 dollars,
Then you'll need a 2824 movement and a Yuki movement holder (makes it easy) a stem adapter and a 27mm dial
