V2 owners rejoice

The Flyback in general, v1/2 are spot on same as BPFF v1/2. No one would see a difference with gen except what I said above and that it's a chrono 7753 not a "Flyback" chrono.

The dial and fit and finish are almost perfect

Thanks man! Is the picture above a hybrid of V1 & 2? You mentioned V1 but it has the black DW ?

 

[JackJ1980]

Yes. It's a combo of both

So had a little fun. Since I can't lume for crap but I own a bunch, I had some fun. Instead of relume for and trying for a perfect color and font, I went for a what if. I completely painted the black part of the bezel in blue and made sure the green still showed through. It's not good, it's ugly, yada yada. I'm already aware. But thought this looked cool and could be a cool idea with a better lume modder. @atgm @DrJohnWatsonJr

HAHA I love it!

I wish you'd post that on the gen forums and watch people shit their pants.

It does look like crap but you get points for ballsiest mod of the year

I think with a real even coating of blue superluminova and and better coating of the greenish lume in the insert the blue color dial with black dial and strap does look kinda cool. Just needs to look more intentional and less like it was thrown together by a noob (which is me and lume)
The bottom picture gets the closest to how it could look

I'm in full awe of this mod. I love and hate it at the same time XD

It has so much potential now that you've opened up a whole new color scheme!

I hope that was a dhgate level rep though

I might even copy you if I get some time

It was a cheapie quartz chrono. The case back is too flat to fit a 7753 or even a 2896-2. So it's a parts and try fun stuff out on piece /)

 

[atgm]

Wow, that looks like a small fortune in lume!

If you did the insert like that I wonder ifyou could just read the dial by the light of the bezel...
