Two peas in a pod. Love my 45th. And thanks Darren for making it happen.
First it was a hobby, then it became a passion, now it's a sickness. 🤨

It was a pleasure! I might sell this one yet not sure.

At the moment it's staying unworn.

Wore mine twice. When I received it and then when I had the titanium bracelet added. To paraphase George Carlin....You get a "high" knowing it's in the closet. 👍

Double checked with seller as the hands on these are notorious for going rusty and pitting.

Photo came in over night and here are the hands. The watch has been not been shipped yet as I am in the uk.

Your thoughts? Any one else's like this?

That looks a bit unsightly but the hands are cheap to buy and easy enough to replace if you decided its the right watch

The hands were bought new, 'ageing' added to the main hands and then brushed to remove the shininess. Dial was new and given an aged look too.

Thanks, was going for a slightly vintage look on mine. Sorry cant help you with your hands.

Do you think the surface damage to the hands on the watch you are looking at would be caused by moisture?

It's a tough call, depending whether you got a good deal on it

You can replace the hour and minute hands for under $40 US including shipping last time I checked (part # OME-065PZ4067 from Ofrei). Mine are starting to do this and need to replace them, just been too lazy.
