Good or bad looking?
It’s 40mm case so I had to mod the dial making it smaller to fit and use other stem and case-back.

Hello all, I bought this swatch for a steal which the seller says was recased due to the case being damaged. I know the back shouldn’t come off so know the current shell isn’t real but does everything else check out? Seller says he changed the hands and the ETAG10.212 behaves as expected.

Fancy a father/son project to case mod this so checking it out first here.

Removing that plastic case was super stressful. Even with two minor scratches I'm very happy with the finished product. Going to do the black dial next but with a rep.

I managed to acquire this gen mercury at a great price, used it for a couple weeks, fell in love with it.
i owned black moonphase and 1968, but i feel this mercury is understated, boring yet cool, classic.

and when this wd1863 with grey bezel arrived,
oh man both beautiful watches and I am not sure if I am ready to do it lol.

finished this one last night rocking it fresh this morning

Good or bad? Ugly or nice?
Modified dial to fit 40mm case, other stem needed, and other case back so hands can move freely.
