Tropical 6239 Daytona Gen Spec Build! [Pic Heavy]

[darknite]

@TheSociety is there a "budget" way to achieve a 6238 silver dial that is SOMEWHAT accurate.... I saw there is some Venus powered ones with frozen 6 subdial. What are your thoughts on this approach?

 

[QueTip]

That's a damn beauty. Congrats man.

And I'll look into my archives too regarding the '-T Swiss-' I'll report back if I manage to find something.

Natural patina so not too overly tropical (as oppose to a brown printed dial. This dial started out black!)

It doesn't just tell time. It tells history.

@TheSociety Nice build! Is there any custom engraving between lugs on this case set?

damnn... if someone were to offer me this or a new daytona, i'd have a hard time deciding tbh
