Your build is coming along nicely. Keep working at all the little details bit by bit.
The lume is pretty good - you’ve well within the lines of the plots. But it’s just a bit too puffy. These Dials really should have a very low profile lume application.
Also, might just be the pic but check the side edges of your hands, looks like some lume got on it - especially the hour hand.

Thanks for the information and compliments mate! Yea the gen dial is definitely less puffy on the lume plots, but this dial is just temporary until I get a gen or phongs + this was my very first hand at luming a dial didn't do too bad huh?

Dude this is absolutely fantastic! I should’ve had you build my 7016/0. It probably would’ve come out a lot better lol

Same here. Did you do any case re shaping? That’s really my only complaint about mine. I should’ve left it alone I’m not the best at polishing. I want those sharp line like you have on your case.

I left mine for a little but then couldn't live with them fat lugs anymore!
so I shaved a little off with my dremel tool. It's in the middle of my build thread the process.

You did a great job. I think my mistake is doing it by hand lol. You did a far more professional job. Absolutely fantastic. I’m taking notes.
