One of these Black Bays is not like the others....

[HERITAGE82]

I really like it! I had the blue (which I loved) & red black bay but the snowflake hands never did it for me so they got flipped.

I mean they look aftermarket.anyway imo the hands look terrible,way too small for the black bay.but that just my opinion the snow flake hands look perfect.but perhaps a set of maxi hands would look better

Agreed.

I'd take the mod over the standard snowflake hands anytime.

Actually, each one is not like the others...

[ap1]

I like it, probably more if they were a bit beefier

[KrismanX]

I'd take some longer hands; but an interesting mod. Good stuff!

love the fact that you synced all 3 on the same time and second, soothes my OCD

OK, so a modded Black Bay Blue. Very hard to tell the difference between the blue an black bezel from that photo, at least on my iPad.

Most of the time I am grabbing for one in the low light of my office in the am. Many times I get in the car and have the opposite of the one I meant to grab.

For a while I had the Ranger bracelet on the black so it was different enough. But I like the slight differences between the two.

I like it more than the snow flake.
Wish it was an option.

You should source Mercedes hands from the 16610lv. They are bigger.

I looked at a couple sets. We were not sure 3135 Rolex hands would fit on a 2824 ETA movement. He was relatively sure they would not.

Maybe they could be modified to fit, that I will
have to dig in to.

This was the "toe in the water" attempt.

I will start pulling specs on those and YM2 hands to see what it would take to make them fit and the actual size difference. If it is worth it I will soldier on. If not I will either leave it or put the snowflakes back on there at some point.
