WOW, Tony D!!! It's a stunning transformation, like night and day. The dialwork goes very well with that amazing bezel. Now that's a watch I'd wear a whole lot. Kudos, amigo! Wear the transformed one in good health.hand6.gif |

Beautiful. I love that dial and perfect choice for hands. I am one of those wackos that prefer a watch with no date window so that is another plus. hand6.gif |

Great looking transformation Tony. I didn't even realize that you could do something like that; it is like night and day. Enjoy wearing your new custom timepiece, it's cool. hand6.gifhand6.gif |

People used to tell me I couldn't rebuild my turbo chargers too but it never stopped me either! I have kicked myself for a long time about not getting one of those when they were available, I was sorry to see yours go! I hope you enjoy it Tony! |
