Triple Green 116710LN on Jubilee Mod Watch
Thought I’d share photos my project watch. Everything is original Rolex, except the spring bar, which I had custom made to fit the specs of the bracelet and case precisely. Enjoy!

Chrono24. It’ll require some patience and searching. There are a few sellers on TRF that can source them. Top P is one of them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks great!
Can you please share details on where you had the spring bars made? I’ve searched high and low for the right size but there not available off the shelf.

Looks amazing, congrats! The date wheel is original but painted or Rolex actually make this?
Also, for everyone interested in the bracelet, please be careful as you buy. I bought 2 bracelets from trusted sellers on eBay (one of them is on chrono24 as well) and they both turned out to be fake. One was more obvious than the other, which actually passed the eBay authenticity process (or so the seller claims). Credit to Jeff Jfullm42 for saving me twice!

I did not know that about the green date wheel, awesome! On the bracelet, you clearly know what you’re doing. My comment was for others who are drooling about such a project (like I am). |

I’m hoping the steel GRNR won’t make this mod feel second rate. Otherwise I’ll end up with another GMT lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Very cool. I love tasteful modifications like this, under the radar that would be missed or assumed to be from the factory to all but an extremely small subset of the population.
