[rich gubbin]

Hi all,
Heres one i have made for a couples golden wedding anniversary with the time on the face being when they got married. The kit is from Lau Lau with im led to believe they,re discontinuing which is a shame as i really like the look and quality of this kit. C&C welcome.

Very smart looking and nice touch on setting the hands too!!. :good::good:

Beautiful combination of the blank and the trim- look very attractive to me. Thanks for showing.

Very nice. Like the combination of the background and the watch parts, gives a nice sense of depth.

Really like the way you treated the copper. Never thought about coloring it like the aluminum. Beautiful pen.

Awesome job, the gears and face goes well with the plating.
I like the retros myself. I know exoticblanks and csusa caries them also.

Thanks for the kind comments.
Harry, I thought the ones from exotic and csusa are slightly different, when I last looked they hadn't got the black titanium platings. I think lau lau have them made to a slightly different spec, as the centre band, dome and threaded sections aren't black like others I have seen.

Yes, LauLau was the only place i seen the Blk Ti in RB. Wish they or someone(HINT HINT) would stock those and the copper ones. I was only mentioning that the 2 vendors carried the Retro's.
