Tudor 7928 - Gilt matte dial and SCG

This project has a special place in my heart.
It was initially meant for a friend who specifically asked me about a matted gilt dial we had seen on the bay, which he wanted to match with a square crown guards case.

I told him pointed CG's were the period-correct choice imho, but in the end I did as he asked me.

Well, the fun part is that once I finished the job I was (and I still am) so enthusiast about the result, I liked this watch so much that I couldn't stop talking about it. Now you might think making another build looking exactly the same would be easy, but it isn't. Some dials just don't show up.

So what does this guy do? He decided to send the watch back to me so I could enjoy it.
Thanks R., it was a really appreciated gesture ;)
