What mods did you do to it?

So it's all aftermarket...it has a coin edge bezel on reproduction SKX case so screw down crown and 200m. A tophat sapphire crystal with red AR has a silver chapter ring and as you can see the stainless bezel insert. I would have done it too the original but the list of changed made this one better to just buy all the parts.

Wow! It looks amazing! I love the way it turned out. I’ve modded a SRPD too, but yours looks better

It gets easier as you go...I've done so many mods and customs now for people that when I go to donone for myself it's starts out an idea and sometimes it's takes months the find all the just right pieces... end result though is what makes it worth it.

Wow you put that together yourself? That looks like a real bulova lunar pilot. How did you source the parts?

It is a real Bulova. And thata the original dial but this took so long one to get the original watch at a reasonable price but also then to be able to figure out how do add Woodstock well and then within reason. If had had the dial work done this watch could have cost like 1200 to do...that's the real reason it took so long

I guess what I was trying to say is I end up waiting to don't till I know it's gonna be perfect
