I'm new here but love homage creations.

A few years ago my wife wanted to get me a birthday present . I told her that I wanted to have Neckyzips create a watch for me and that she should have the case back glass engraved with a message. Joe made me a watch that I actually had been wanting , with a few extra added things.
So it's A 3646 case but I asked him to put the Crown Guard on it from the newer models.... I know that's incorrect for that case but that would hopefully make it more unique. He skeletonized a 6498 movement and put on a Cali dial that was vintagized. For me, a relative Newbie at that time, it was a kick. He engraved it with my wife's message (which was actually not anything sarcastic or x-rated i'm happy to add.) So now , I wear it a bit and then it goes in my showcase . Until I broke a lug and had to send it back to Joe to fix. Now I am referred to this forum, which I have been on for a while but not actively participating , and I am really getting into it. I warn you, this creation is not for the feint of heart. I'm happy to own it...and I hope you all enjoy looking at it...It might not be to the liking of all here but it's grown on me.
Critiques are welcome.

That's a unique watch. Joe is a talented guy. Welcome and congratulations.

Welcome back Jerome. You might not know this but your watch has become very popular amongst other users!

My honor to meet the owner of this watch...

I’m waiting for [mention]neckyzips[/mention] to get a couple of his projects out of the way so he can make a small batch of these. Brilliant idea and I hope you don’t mind us copying your idea.

Welcome aboard!!

Agree with above, nice to know who owns this beaut. Really hoping NZ makes a small batch.

Glad to see you over here.

What a great piece. Love the idea of the crownguard, although it does take getting used to. Definitely a one of a kind!

When I try engaging my wife in conversation about watches, she just sighs btw. Is there a thread on how to fix that somewhere on hf?
