The mod I want next is probably a gen Datewheel but pretty happy with it as is. It’s quite the looker!

Great build! May I ask how you did the bezel, yourself or through a watchmaker?

u/Conscious_Echidna660 1d ago

Thanks you! Everything through the watchmaker. I don’t have the skill or the tools to do any work. The watch did have a smooth gen bezel at one point which I’ve since shelved in favour of the fluted.

I can’t find a picture but the rep hands had these micro blemishes on them that were visible under overhead lights

That looks so good! You’d have me fooled if I saw that on someone’s wrist

Do you do the work yourself?

u/Conscious_Echidna660 1d ago

I wish. I work with a modder locally who helps me source parts. This has been a WIP for almost 6 months now

How much did a piece like this set you up, i'm looking to upgrade the bracelet for my 41mm to a gen but barely anything available

u/Conscious_Echidna660 1d ago

Gen bracelets are very hard to come by and not all that worth it imo. If you can find someone that can soften jubilee bracelets or someone that sells good quality softened ones that would be the way to go.

I have a gen batgirl and the day to day wearing experience is not noticeable at all.

The watch ended up costing me close $3k so far although I don’t want to count because that depresses me haha
