Default 928 Money Clip

Hi All

I got a 928 Money clip from a Rennlist user for the cost of a charity donation

As the original was made in steel,I decided to have it copied in solid Silver by a friend who is a local jeweller and it was hand engraved, and I am VERY PLEASED with it

If anyone is interested, I could have some more made, just let me know....

Old clip....followed by 3 pictures of new Silver clip...

All the best Brett

Hi

I was very impressed with the hand engraving, to be honest I could not believe it WAS hand engraved lol...considering that the 928 is only 30 mm long from front to back its amazing....the engraver must have better eyesight than me

All the best Brett

It's usually "pits" not "clips" that come to mind when you think about the relationship between 928 and money......

Agreed, so clearly people are holding out on spending on their cars!

i cant engrave by hand, its a different thing .
i have learned to engrave a little, but i did not further experianced with it.
making jewelry has many different skills, done all by different people.

my boattail is made of two layers, the lines in the top layer are actualy saw lines. jewelry saws are only
0,2mm thick.
after sawing, the toplayer is soldered to a back plate to hold te pieces together.

when i make me a 928 it ust have some diamonds somewhere,
they say : diamonds are forever,,,,,,but i prefer a 928

All the best Brett
