Given the chances of getting a watch let alone parts at the moment, good luck with that

Where I need to be.
the diameter of the hand base is reduced and then polished - the result is breathtaking!

To really do the hand mod properly, the hour hand base needs to be trimmed, beveled and polished to stack well with the minute hand. The round outer surface of the hour hand base is then slanted from bottom to top in the same angle as the minute hand, and then highly polished to give it the proper finish.
I think aflop did a good job as usual. I acknowledge that a lot of the now-popular AP mods were pioneered and innovated by this gentleman, whom I am proud to call friend as well.

I do agree, a lot more needs to be done especially the angles.. Still figuring out how that can be done in a cost effective way.. If there's anyone I bet on to figure it out it's you legend

Right and probably difficult to execute, but what he did is already a huge improvement over the stock one as the hands' stack on the reps is an immediate call....@maison888, nice shots ....

I remember you own the gen yes? You will therefore be in a qualified position to say how the gen is like, without using google and youtube. :hehehe:
