My favorite strap maker by a considerable margin... I must have 50 of his works of art by now.

Maybe I’ll swap the movement, dial and hands into the new (upcoming) 6152/1 no CQ case. Let’s see.
Love it the way it is! That dial texture is :clap:
So, the decision was made for me.Image
It has to stay in the Radiomir case since the dial numbers and indices are toooo close to the 6152/1 case.

The inside of the ali 6152 and 6152/1 bezel needs to be milled by about 1mm.
I keep looking at my build, and go " damn it, still not perfect ".
Need to sort out that bezel in the future, but invested too much time, don't have the energy to spend on it, so leaving it as is for now.

@Kp0y Can provide a modded bezel to work with the 39mm dial. I believe he will even reduce the price in exchange for your current bezel.

I have one on the way from him...

great job! you even protect some parts with a special tape. I also bought this tape. need to find where I put it. I need to polish my pam233. It was "graded up" in pawnshop. it is satin brushed , so will need this tape also to protect some parts.
