You modd a fake, with real parts? For what purpose?
A while ago I was browsing that forum. It's such a mad little sub-hobby.
I'd liken it to the way this forum used to put NJS parts on old converted road frames.
Some of also seems like buying say a Rolex over time, so in the end you end up with a "real" frankenwatch. A bit like starting out with a Fuji track then upgrading every part until you ultimately upgrade the frame.
Also using fake parts like dials allows you to do thinks like faux age, which you wouldn't want to do with an original.
But given expensive watches aren't rational, and most hobbies aren't rational beyond 'cause I enjoy it, it' s not that crazy.

That looks like a bad replica to me. If you want a good one go and have a look on the rep world forum. Some of the good fakes are astonishingly good and there is a whole rabbit hole of modding with genuine parts that is fun.
