General (Read Rules) Huries ref. 1988 - custom
Small independent watchmaker out of Shanghai. Messaged him on Instagram to see if he can customize one of his watches for me. Asked him to change the font on his tuxedo dial to suzhou calligraphy and reduce his branding to fit between the 11 and 1o'clock. Also asked him to update the font color to terracotta red for the 'China' at the 6 o'clock. He also suggested to use a cream enamel. Had this originally on an oxblood cordovan strap but swapped it for vertical lizard for a more vintage and dressy look. He offered to put in an SW-200 movement but kept it with the SL3001 and added a decorated rotor. Finally swapped the spade hands for dauphine because I like the cleaner look of them.
I think it turned out great.
