Franken with gen hands dial and cal 2121 with an XF base.

And how did you solve the bracelet and the clasp?

Always wanted to Franken but at the end I never do it.


Enjoy yours, the bezel screws are really nice.

Gen dial is more stylish and elegant.
It is a truly beauty

dial and hands will make a huge difference on your watch, but your bezel is also wrongly shaped...if you look at W47chl0v3r's watch (which is quite convincing) the bezel shape is totally different from yours....

Yep. I totally agree.
Mine is a “stock” MBK from Rolexfinder
My Gen dial is not installed yet … thinking on using the XF case of my old beloved MBW with real gold screws (and add some rhodium plating)

Dial, hands, date and case reshaping (rehaut and bezel), even without the 2121, that might cost you several thousands of euros already ...

I need some white gold plated screws for that vintage look.

You are absolutely right this is a small detail very noticable irl, and this is also the reason why a RO is in general more appreciated on the wrist than on photo*....colors, light reflection etc...

*The white gold screw might be a tell if you move the watch under the light in front of a connoisseur but on a photo I doubt anybody** can tell the difference with your watch if the brush/finish is well done.
**Except may be the super uber experts such as Legend or Quetip or some other here who can detect a rep Ap from room distance :)

Question: IS your 2121 equipped with the nice oscillating weight ?
