An upgrade to my watch
Hi guys! I have bought this used miyota movement and omega speedmaster dial from Anarkali market Lahore. The dial is not orignal, I think so, but it's well made and It has great sunburst and enamelled like shiny surface. It was a bit large in diameter for my watch so I have to grind it down about a millimetre by hand. The movement which I bought was working fine already but I had serviced it just for the peace of mind. I had putted this dial and movement in the same watch of mine which you may know from my wrist shots. Feel free to give your thoughts on it.

No matter how bad the dial is ,the fact that it is branded as an Omega when it clearly is not means that you made a fake watch.
Looks cool 😎
I wouldn't knock anyone who gets off their behind and puts time and effort with the aspiration for creating something. I'm assuming it's a case of 'needs must' for you from a financial perspective - but regardless I feel that this watch is likely going to attract some hate.

It's not to sell it's just like photocopying a leonardo da vinci to stick on your wall.

Omegas brand is not.
Everyone can tell it's not original by everything about it and it's a creation. When I do a build I add other parts I like so they can not be seen as a direct copy. Sure it's a frankenwatch but it's cool.
I think it's pretty cool actually. 👍🏻
"Batman" is a trademark of DC comics but I still went as him to a fancy dress. Going as myself in case of copyright didn't seem much fun 😊
