Watchmaker/Modder of the Year

[trailboss99]

These guys are vital to our hobby, the watchmakers who keep out little toys running and the modders who build us our dream pieces along with parts suppliers who sell us all those special bits and pieces. Go vote for your favorite in the poll and then tell us why you made your choice here.

@Belkin12 gets my vote for building kickass watches as well as being a really cool dude to talk to and extremely easy to work with. Looking forward to my next watch with the great and powerful Belkin.

For those of us that love Panerai, @Belkin12 has been an extremely valued resource for creating custom vintage and contemporary builds. He's a true craftsman and a gentleman to deal with - always delivering builds of the highest quality and seamless communication. The rep factories have all but deserted Panerai to focus on the more popular / profitable brands so D has really kept the torch alight for the Panerai faithful.

And, above all of that he's been living and operating in a fucking war zone for the past 3 years.

Xing got my vote for affordable modding and his access to gen parts and rep parts. He got me multiple parts and pieces I begged to find, the Ember SW kit and the vintage 4130 Daytona kit.

@Solution6 is the Goat, done 8 watches and counting the man turns around watches in 48 hours. The advice is second to none!

Belkin all day

Solutions Atelier all day! Been in the rep game for a while, and no one matches his attention to detail—it's top tier. Turnaround times are solid too!

Hear, hear!

I got no skin in the game when it comes to modding (yet), but TWM’s section makes my mouth water every time
And a big thank you for making all of this possible!

 

[JaceBeleren]

@Solution6 has been amazing for me here in the UK. Can heartily recommend for everything.

I have 5 of his incredible Pams!
