I respect Bamford watches because they are truly unique customs.
Yours is just a dial swap to make it look exactly like a watch that cost more.

Might as well buy a base model 5 series and slap an M5 badge on the back.


Umm, have you seen his list of watches? Clearly, the issue is not that he can't afford the white gold version.

I 100% applaud the OP's decision. It looks stunning! Years back I was heavy into the car modification scene and I guess I carry the mentality with me, because I see nothing wrong with this. Rolex watches aren't something handed down from the gods that can't ever be changed and considered with religious-like reverence. It's just a watch, people.
