haha nice I am of the brosnan generation too (90s kid). You've got yourself quite the classic. So by your name you do mods? the 1016 is gorgeous...insane proportions. How did you build your homage? I've considered getting the smiths everest for fun as well before and since smiths is a big part of the explorer history

I'm only just one being in '99 haha. I do mods indeed yeah, it's the same thing on insta where I post all of them and various other bits :) I bought a bundle from Namoki that is like the oyster perp style and wrnt from there, I've got the modern dial in at the moment and I'm going to gey a vintage style case to do my 1016 again as I quite miss having thst design around. Yeah the smiths everest was something I almost bought a few times prior to modding/building my own pieces

ah interesting what a cool hobby. so are you able to service your watches? I imagine you don't service something like your omega though maybe too much risk?

I can sort of "service" movements. I'm still sort of practising and perfecting that craft but I've got a couple non-running NH series movements I use to practise on :) I wouldn't try my omega though no, maybe in 5 years 😅😅

haha yeah definitely don't want to mess it up but imagine the money you can save once you're ready or even the money you can make!
