'The most perfect DJ he's ever built' lol. I just see parts for parts swapping with a too yellow gold looking bezel. Does he mean it was a pleasure to use such an incredible coloured dial.. cos that really is beautiful.

I say that, but the watch is definitely beautiful. There's such a great feeling when the centrepiece of the watch is a stunning gen dial. And if it's anywhere near the price someone posted on here, it's a fantastic deal imo.

Hate to break it to you, but that yellow is just the reflection playing tricks on you—nothing more.

As for “parts swapping,” yeah, you’re right—it was all part of the fun. Every single piece was carefully sourced and ordered. Trust me, when a trusted member says it’s the best they’ve built, I’ll take that at face value. 😎

Exactly! When the dial’s a gen beauty like this one, everything else is just supporting cast. And yeah, I’ve been sent QC videos, so no surprises there. The build is solid. For a deal like this? Can’t complain—it’s a killer package all around, and if the centrepiece of the watch is turning heads, then mission accomplished!

I think my aut!sm was showing there. I took Xing Patrick's comment about it being his best build far too literally. my bad. It can easily be one of his favourites to look at. Hell it would certainly be mine. - I can't believe you have a gen green dial. Nobody does. Its beautiful

This is pretty incredible, I'm baffled at the quality of some of these watches.

Definitely got me interested in getting something similar.

Thinking about going with Clean case, VS mov, Gen Dial, that beautiful Bezel you have ( or a gen one maybe, idk prices) and a Prof Crystal for less reflection. Not sure I'd bother with changing hands and datewheel etc.

Thank you for showing your work of art

Very nice, did you contact him via telegram or whatsapp? I reached him on telegram to know the availability of the Genuine Sprite set but he didn’t answer me.

WhatsApp is your best bet. When he’s got lots of projects on, he may be slow to reply. Just state the specs of what you require, and state your intention to buy and then wait.
