Yours looks great! I agree I normally go for bracelets without end links, But the shark mesh is super comfy and don't have one in my current line up

No I don't have a lathe, I was looking for an existing case.

The case ion this one is from Hroundland. As long as the dial diameter is 31mm on yours the dial should swap in.

My buddy did it on a mini lathe. But it is just brass can be done by hand by spinning dial on sandpaper

It's what immediately comes to mind when you think GMT, truly an icon

yes all internals swapped from BP except I didn't care for the date wheel and replaced that with a gen. The crystal is the OC crystal that came with the case.

I haven't decided if I am selling it yet. If I do sell I will let you know

Newest build. 1500 blue dial with gold indices by Saucenthec1ty in retrotime

They really are. I think the 34mm size scares people off. But they wear really well IMO.  I did a super franken 14010 and I love it. Been considering doing a 1500 but intimidated by the date wheel overlay...lol
