"Xing" Patrick DJ41 Franken Build

[LambChopFamily]

After reading @j888hnt thread on his beautiful Mint Green @xingpatrick built DJ41, I know I will need one

Pm'ed Jason for Patrick's contact and journey begins.

13th Nov, Contacted Patrick and sent over a Spec that I wanted.

- Clean Base
- Clean Oyster Bracelet
- VS3235 Movement, serviced & regulated
- Gen Grey Dial
- Gen DW
- Gen Hands
- Gen Crown
- Gen Crystal
- Gen Smooth Bezel

I guess I was lucky, Patrick replied within the hour and quoted me a price.

The Double Lucky part, he replied he had one partly built Grey Dial in stock.

Price agreed.

Deposit sent to Patrick.

Pictures he sent me:

Patrick said, he will swap the movement out, bracelet to Oyster, service & regulate movement and fit Gen Crown. Watch will be ready in 4days.
He said I am lucky (I was over the moon) because he had a built watch in stock Clean Based with Gen Dial, Hands, Crystal and Bezel, he only needs to perform abit of work.

Then he sent me these pictures. He had asked his watch smith to start work and these are work in progress.

Super Happy and Excited

Will keep updating this post with progress.

Must thanks @j888hnt for info on his post, really helped me to make the decision to build my 1st Franken. Cheers
