As soon as I saw the original version of this watch manufactured for Lucky Brand, I just knew I had to try to improve upon it!
The most unusual shape of the case drew me in right away, and the fact that it had a skeleton movement made up my mind.
I modified it by:
1 making a better dial (hammered and engraved copper roof flashing)
2 coating the movement plates and bridges with copper dust suspended in an acrylic binding agent
3 coating the hands with silver mica suspended in an acrylic binding agent
4 riveting a hammered and engraved copper GPF logo over the original Lucky Brand one
I had a blast modifying this watch and think it came out really well!
Since I took the movement apart to ink it, I lubed it up during reassembly, so the ty2807 movement is freshly serviced and runs great.
I have worn this one of a kind 35mm x 45mm watch on occasion. It is not new and there is evidence of gentle wear on the caseback, case and crystal, but it is still in great condition.
Feel free to contact me with questions
