At the watchmaker: The final touch...........

Sep 19, 2010,12:27 PM
 

So we start with to pull off the bracelet.

Then the backcase

After that so will the crown and the rotor go off

There we go.

Now we will pull off the hands.

The old fashion way.

There we go.

Then the dial.

And what did we found.

Some new parts, he are very careful, he even use the loupe when he open the envelop. LOL

Me like.

I guess this will be very nice.

Or what?

Back with the dial.

And the hands.

Line up perfect.

And the final result.

Hey Jocke, I like the black date wheel better, the red second hand & red yachtmaster is enough for me

The two of you did a great job!

You for the pictorial and your watchmaker for the fine execution of the date wheel change. There's no mistaking this Yachtmaster for another. Thanks. fernando

I like your willingness to 'mess around' with your Rolexes... that looks great!!

Perhaps you could ...
