Hi all,

since i've posted my last modifications to my RWC 1938A i've found a few other things to do A friend and fellow watchnut recently posted a project of his own which he added some great looking "wabi" (wear and tear) to his case. Having already had my 1938A case sterilized of company logos, the lume being tinted a vintage yellowish brown, and an acrylic crystal installed i thought his work would be a perfect last touch for my project.

Here is a few "before" photos of my 1938A ...






I had to remove the dial / movement from the watch before adding "wabi" to the case ...




and added wabi to the case ...







and even a bit of wear to the buckle for full effect ...



Only thing remaining to do is return the dial / movement to the case - more pix to come shortly

Hope this was of interest and Best Regards from N.M.

Billy
