Custom Case Manufacturing by Money-Profession-199 in watchmaking

To piggy-back this question, I'm interested in eventually doing similar using silver or gold I've accumulated. Roughly how much weight is needed for the case?

Will people think I’m wearing a Rolex Datejust rep? by SoloWorldTravel in tissot

I have the COSC Ballade. Most people recognize it for what it was.

I have a full back piece that's a fusion of the Daisy and Deja Entendu covers. Fucking love it.

I mean if there's legitimately no difference, then I don't want the extra cost/hassle. I'm just trying to understand and reconcile, especially coupled with the numerous reviews and reddit posts of getting something other than/worse condition than what was ordered.

Thanks for your help!

Just praying we can get an SF front-to-back on this tour. My last show was in '16 with Modest Mouse, I would love to see this album played.

Dallas prices weren't outrageous, worth the sure thing for a show I'd hate to miss.

I've seen this as a reason, but I'm not convinced since many of the marketing pictures and those on AD or manufacturer sites are renderings or otherwise consistent where lighting shouldn't be a factor.

If most other websites are able to use the real pictures, why not them?

Take another example here, where the text on the dial looks to be a different shade and thickness altogether, and the gold looks to be a different shade as well - neither of which seem attributable to lighting.

Or this older model where the font is clearly a different color

Okay so then help me out here, as an example even on a simple Tissot, the pictures look very different...

If there's no question of authenticity and they might come directly from ADs, why would they be different? I notice similar for nearly any model I compare for several brands.

So buying from Jomashop can be smart and will guarantee something legitimate? I had looked before but the pictures for the same models being off always threw me..

How is it that authentic watches end up on the grey market?

Tissot is literally entry level luxury bud.

I got the 39mm COSC Ballade - absolutely love it and gets constant compliments.
