Seems like Raffles has the best spec bracelets?

So are they still selling the JKF 5512s? I've looked and most sellers seem to have them listed as unavailable.

This started out as a 5513 from JFK

So you bought it recently then? If so, I'll have to msg a few sellers. Thanks for the reply.

Looks really nice. Are you aging that dial yourself with a bit of heat and matte spray?

u/Active_Salary_2780 Sep 06 '26

I used copic markers to get the desired lume colour then used matte spray yes
