I’ve seen these pop up here and there. Quite a work of art! I don’t think I’d ever have that done to mine but I can appreciate the beauty very much.

Have seen some of this work before on several models, definitely a work of art and some amazing craftsmanship.

Not for me though.

Wow, wow, wow...that is amazing.

I wouldn't do it to a sub/GMT/or Daytona, because the bezel is already so busy. But I think this would look amazing on a DJ2/DJ41 with smooth bezel. Throw in the rhodium or silver dial to match the dark background of the engravings, and that would be hot.

Beauty is quite subjective.

wow

Awesome workmanship and to think how hard stainless is to work .... I'm assuming its stainless steel that is..... I wouldn't want to guess how many hours it took let alone the cost involved, I don't think I'd want mine done either..... very nice to see.

Nice vid, thanks for sharing!

I’ve seen pictures before, but never a video of the actual process.

I’d like to see one where the black paint isn’t applied.

I wonder how that looks.
