Maybe bead blasted like the bezel on a yachtmaster?

Good job!

Although, I'd have left it original.

He may have, but it has a smooth finish.

Yeah, that's what I meant

Nice job!

I like the work, but I don't like making something it is not. I'd buy a WG and keep the SS like it was.

Rikki · 24 June 2013, 09:31 AM

Very easy to reverse the process. no worries. Rik

Swift_Movement · 24 June 2013, 09:32 AM

Very nice

Just off the phone with my Pal Rikki. He told me about it, thought it looked good himself, but he was too modest. This looks incredibly good Rikki! Love the blast on here...it really looks stunning. 40u beads eh? Very impressive.

To anyone wondering, this is a small example of the excellent craftsmanship and attention you get from Rik.

Love the dial swap, but prefer the PCLs on these modern Daytonas. Looks good though!

Wolfgang427 · 26 June 2013, 04:26 AM

Very nice

I wish Rolex would offer the matte finish as an option on more of its mainline models.....
