Hi, folks!

I've been thinking about have my first 6309 cushion diver modded. I'd like some inspiration, please. Those awesome quartz conversions are also more than welcome!

T.I.A.

Hi, Chris,
Here is my favorite 6309 mod. It gets more wrist time compared to my original 6309-7049.

I have mine, which is just a simple bezel insert mod (insert from Noah). I like the mod I have attached in the second pic. Not sure where this came from, but to my eye it says "TOOL WATCH" in capital letters.

Nikki and Chris, I wanted to say how great your pics are of your mods. Just stunning! Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately I don't have a 6309 mod to share ???

 

[nikidasi]

Thanks, Chris! It is based on the classic DOXA Sharkhunter. FYI, all custom parts were purchased from Harold (Yobokies) and Noah Fuller.

Hey Chris
This one gets a lot of wrist time at home!

Hey Indera is that black Soxa dial got a gloss finish, or is it just the reflection from the xtal? Either way it is stunning!
Where did you score that Kanji daywheel?
Regards, RossG

Some that I've put together and since been adopted by fellow 6309 lovers... some had the case refinished (blued/polished/brushed), some had an aftermarket dial, some had an aftermarket bezel insert, and most had either a 7546 or 7548 movement (with a black date wheel that blended into the dial real nicely).

 

[tcps760]

Indera, your 6309 looks like he could be a brother of my Tuna! Your 6309 is rocking!

 

[tcps760]

Almost forgot about this one. 6309 case, 7548 movement, Marathon Navigator dial, modified hands. Still have it, but not really quite feeling it yet...

 

[HDEddie1]

Something Orange, perhaps?

 

[cbrmike]

My 6309-7049 case with 7548-700b movement, dial and caseback, yobokies slant bezel insert and domed class from swedefreak.

I think I might have one or two...

This is the first one I did, this was back all the way in 2003 , you could not get all the cool parts, yet.... so I had to make stuff.

this one is bead blasted, and has a chapter ring bead blasted and plated.

and I made a custom bracelet out of some end links and a ZRC president bracelet.

I made this one a few years later I wanted a alux blasted piece, got a local glass guy to do it.

I want to do this one again- I realized after I made it I didnt really like orange

I have a PVD 6309 case floating around here, need to put that back together,
and I have a Marathon SAR junker in pieces , and probably 4 or 5 other full on projects for just need to put them together...
