Very cool Takakura!

I would do the same if I had the parts. Considering just putting new explorer hands on a Black GMT for a similar look.

I like that look a lot. And with rotating bezel you have true 2-time zone functionality with the Orange Expy II 24 hour hand.

I like it - not head over heals in love - but i do like it.
