    Right. And why don't you simply post - explicitly of course - one of the 2915 bezels you produced and sold yourself?

    Would make it easier to get advice on what you should work on for the next ones..and would've held this thread way shorter.

    Sounds like a good idea, but I am far away from starting a business.

    All I want is to finalize some projects, that have been in my drawer for more than a decade by now.

    Yes, you might be beyond the start of a business, but what about: no, I never produced any of these bezels?

    Sorry. I've just been with the kids. :)

    Yes. I had some bezels produced and sold about 15 of them over the past 8 years. So for me this was not an idea of getting rich, but helping other collectors to complete their watches or making them wearable at least.

    Everyone who bought a bezel from me was (and is still) happy with it.

    And I promise that everyone who bought one will receive an improved update for free, which is a matter of honor, while I most likely won't sell any further reproductions in the future.

    Just as I said: I'm intending to finalize my own projects now.

    as u speak of honor, then your improved version should contain a public known "fault" so that even a noob can spot it as fake

    So the plot thickens. I was wondering why everyone was being so cryptic, but it all makes sense now. ::popcorn::

    e.g instead of a dot at 300 make it underlined.... and a deep engraving on the inside of the bezel ...

    Thanks for this answer in all it's contradictive nature towards itself and your opening post. And we are probably not done yet, despite of your "forward defence".

    Well, I think I was asking a simple question. And I guess I was right doing it here.

    But obviously this turns out to be a thing that gives no answers to me, while it's asking answers from me all the time.

    And the more answers I give, the more are expected.

    So I apologize once again for having posted this thread. It has been a stupid idea, which I still believe was worth a try...

    Just answering... More than 10 minutes ago.

    Any new thoughts to bring in from your side after having announced an epilogue?

    How about making a 666 instead of the 60?

    For what? Someone to pad your head?
    Let me sum up:
    You build them, you sell them, you ask questions about them. you don't plan a business with them.
    All said.

    Yes. With exception to an answer to my original question.
