Banana with a twist 馃榿

After receiving a refinished Banana case with a great original black and red bezel, I was looking through a bag of bezels I picked up recently, of which there are 2 NOS bezels from what I think must be the 200m 166.091 Seamaster, to find that this bezel fits perfectly on the Banana case.

This is just a temporary build to see that everything goes together before I pick up a new set of hands and black date wheel. The lume on the hour hand has gone completely but I actually like the skeleton look it now has 馃憤

This just came, I am quite happy with it. Will try to find some way to clean the dial a bit. Any suggestions?

Grand Seiko, magical watch.


Q2nBSY3.jpg

Were at Globen and visited Svante yesterday. Had a long look at the SBGJ003. Very tempted. One thing all these modern Grand Seiko: s have in common are that they are totally magical in real life but that does not come thru in pictures to the same extent.
