WRUW II: This Time It's December
With about a fortnight's worth of posts the thread was 22 pages, so a new one for the new month seemed a good idea?
This week is for me mostly about my Beijing Zungu. It took me a while to choose this watch but from the moment I had it in my sweaty grateful hands...

I wore the green Pulsar civie RAF chrono yesterday. I haven't chosen a watch for today. Actually, I should be going to bed for what is now to be, at best, a nap, before "today" actually starts.

OK, here goes:
Part one:
1. Take one cup of SKX007 (- or 009. It didn't matter since I swapped everything but the case.)
2. Open caseback, remove innards: Crown, movement, dial, hands, and chapter ring.
3. Close caseback. Set aside crown.
4. Remover bezel, then remove bezel insert. Set aside.
At this point, stop, and have some tea or coffee... and cookies.
5. Gently blast the living excrement out of ever'thang: the case, bezel, crown. (Google for that info or have someone do it for you.)
6. Clean everything thoroughly. Set aside and let it cool, while stirring every few minutes.
Part two:
1. Replace dial with dial of your choice (available through Hong Kong watch Mafiosi).
2. Ditto with hands.
3. Ditto with bezel insert -- The bezel must be back in place FIRST BEFORE you drop in the insert - for best accuracy.
4. DItto with chapter ring - I had mine painted matte black. (Be sure to insist only on the best Sardenian octopus ink)
At this point, go to ILW and dick around a bit. Maybe have a smoke. And more coffee. or take a nap.
5. Assemble and return everything to their place.
6. Feel the badassery coming into form... and savor it.
Part three: Optional:
Bracelet - I got the "Razor" when it was all the rage some years ago.
1. Gently blast the poo outtvit too. All the blasting is done to LOW LIGHT level. (Work done by MCWW)
2. Size it, and mount it.
3. Pour gravy, and garnish with cauliflower as needed.
4. Go get a shirt to match the watch, and wear.
4. Enjoy!
