Very nice, I like it!So, you know I have some fabulous builds by kilowattore, tripdog and interaktiv
And I thought to try one for myself. Of course I am a total noob but with help and advice (thank you @alhig72 and @Kilowattore) and a lot of reading I get there (very slowly...).
Anyway, some pics here, as today I received the lightly aged HR dial and hands I ordered from them. I already prepared a Cartel case that I shaved the CG's and worked on, drilled lugholes 2mm etc.
Added an Athaya 700 tube and crown and on top a T19 crystal from Sternkreuz.
Inside is a 2836 that I had in a 1680, I want to swap it for a low beat movement as that would be more accurate with the 5513 model.
When I do that I will also age the hands a bit more as they are shining like a mirror
