A tale of two turtles part two

Post by Billwilson » Sat Apr 29, 2017 9:02 am

I'm not a photographer like the rest of you experts LOL

These two are fresh back from Duarte
With a stop off in the UK

The SRP has a signed crown that will be DLC eventually

The 6309 will get a coin edge DLC
And they signed crown DLC

Good stuff. I like it, but have no patience or faith in sending my watch out.

That is kind of a trick question
The SRP Has been to the UK and on the East Coast three times.
The usual parts from China
custom bezel from Indonesia
signed crown from UK

the 6309 spent some time in South Carolina, three trips to the East Coast, no four

then you add in queue from the builder

All those trips were different versions of the watches

however if you had all the parts
and you can get on the builders bench

Probably a couple weeks

I should have them tomorrow and will post some more shots
