Recently finished these. First is a JSAR auto conversion and next is a Wilson Mil-Sub snowflake dial/hands mod (Inspired by Oscar's Kobold mod). Sorry for the poor photos....    |

Remarkable! I like the transformations but I seem to be falling for the JSAR more.....it's really robust. Big Congrats! |

interesting, there was an auto JSAR on WUS today, how does it affect the value to change the watch like that? Its like putting a diesel engine in an E Type Jag? |

Personal preference I guess on the value, I know a replacement quartz works is about $15 where an eta 2824 new is around $120. Me, I'd take the auto anyday... |

I also like the Mil-sub snowflake mod. The snowflake design is more pleasing to me than the mercedes hand. Apples and Oranges I guess. You did an awesome job! |

I really like the Marathon divers, too bad that most of them are so little but the JSAR is perfect: Except the quartz mvt inside....Then, you've done the right thing! Too bad that Marathon still didn't understand it. RussellB: Ripping a cheapo quartz for putting an sturdy auto: Is the real upgrading! I would prefer a V12 engine than any electric motor on a sport car...That's how I would compare it if we should speak of cars... |
