Tried my hand at a handset change!

So I had an Oris BCPD Movember edition. The hour and minute hands are gold while the second and date hands are more rose gold in color. It bothered me so much that I sold it.

Then I noticed the Octopus Kraken homage. Stupid name, but the handset all matches at least!

That got me thinking and I decided to buy some tools and a gold handset for my bronze Maratac, and voila! (Less than 10 curse words were uttered, and about 5 prayers throughout to not ruin the dial)

The handset is too small, but it scratches the itch!

Looks great 👍

Thanks! The more I look at it though, the more I realize I need to find longer hands.
