Some of you may recall my first attempt with customizing a Raffles dial
This was the first one..
Before and after.

Then I came across this gen on ebay....and I was in Awe with the dial..
I had to replicate something similar the water damaged / tropical look is spectacular
So I ordered another Raffles dial and went to work..
results :
Its not exact but it does have the same feel to it...I really like how it turned out.
The hands could be aged a bit more to match the dial but other than that I think its pretty cool.

Keep an eye on the M2M forum as I think I might be clearing this and a few others out of my collection to fund some future builds..
Comments and questions always welcomed.
Thanks for looking.
