This is a wonderful idea and looks like a unique project, with low production numbers.

Steve, I am assuming buckles will be same material, too, right? Would you sell an extra buckle (of same to different design) to each buyer?

Brown case, brown dial, distressed brown strap.....picturing this in my mind already. my love.gif

I agree with Froschd.....the cleaner the dial, the better IMHO.


I don't know yet, it looks as if smaller parts like crowns need to be made from steel, I am not sure on the buckle, I will get the details. maybe the crown, case back and buckle are steel and you could specify the finish for those parts.

Thanks, Steve. Now this is even MORE interesting! I could have the base as bronze then opt for steel/PVD on the rest. A 2-toned tool watch in a unique color and material is something truly elusive.

Then, I'd have lots of flexibility on the straps and maybe natos that come with black hardware. PVD buckles abound. In the end, a collector could build around the different components and colors and end up wth a different watch to suit his moods. Now that's somethingyou rock.gif
