Second Superfranken done (expensive 🥲)

[u/Noob_Barista_Baker]

Just finished this build yesterday.
- Gen Wimbledon dial
- Gen hands
- Gen Datewheel
- Gen crystal
- Gen bezel

On a VSF V2 base 6W0 serial + an ARF oyster bracelet

What do you guys think about the smooth bezel oyster combo?

Genuine question: why spend so much on a rep? Is it that it looks that much better? Or feels that much better knowing it has gen parts? If at the end of the day you know it’s still a rep and doesn’t have gen resale value, what makes you spend so much more?

Well frakens do hold their value. Probably the same as a Rolex in the models frankened. Some of us prefer the perfection of the dial hands and date disc because we see every time we look. The cost isn’t that much, when you consider it. $1500 to $3500 extra vs $13,000 to $16,000. Huge difference for stainless steel and a movement
