here is my first attempt at a big crown 5510, Athaya crown and tube, Tiger hands, Raffles case and dial, swapped the bezel with Aliexpress one and brassed, for the assembly and ageing of the hands I thank a well known modder... I won't mention the name without his permission but he knows... I wanted to recreate a submariner with water damage, the dial veered a little towards tropical...

man I like that dial the patina is sweet
Yeah it is a beauty. That is a HR dial aged by one of the old masters. He used to be called big_dazza. I know he changed his name but I cannot remember what the name change is.
