  1. I'm not sure if he still offers them but check with Angus. I know he used to have the Sub Supreme (aka WM9 1.5v)listed though I don't know if he still has them in stock. PureTime....he's a trusted dealer and Angus is a real good guy.
  2. I can't see where it really makes a difference, but that's just my 2 cents.
  3. SSD...to me it would look much better with a cyclops GMT IIc...the maxi-dials and shiny ceramic bezels aren't really my thing Engraved rehauts I don't mind as long as they're perfectly aligned Fat lugs on the Subs I can live with as the 16610 has always been my favorite..(though the 16570 Exp.II is growing on me quickly) The YM's..both I and II have never really sparked anything in me (although the new ones do...a BIG laugh..THAT'S a foolish looking watch to me) Daytonas..nice looking but the busy dialed chrongraphs of any brand have never really appealed to me. The new 216570 Explorer II, even with it's maxi-dial..is SWEET looking. (I prefer the Black dial..white doesn't do it for me.) And although a busy dial never appealed to me before, I've recently fell for the looks of the Tudor MC...70331 I believe it is. joerg...what's the watch in your pic...front row, right side??? THAT'S a sweet looking Tudor....WOW !!!
  4. AWESOME...that's great work. Any idea what the cost will be to have a caseback engraved??
  5. Well, dawg-gone-it...it SHOULD be. Thanks for the info.
  6. I ran across this somewhere while reading on Explorer II's. I've never felt the "love" for the maxi-dial set-up...but this is sorta different. Does anyone know if this is even going to be an actual Rolex Design??
  7. I've never been fond of the white dials....at all. But looking at it this way...well, the new version looks MUCH better in white, for sure.
  8. IThe dial is actually very good. But I've noticed it on many "Noob" dials and now that the v3 has arrived and I've had a chance to do the "side-by-side" it's my opinion that the minute indices are too white and pronounced...nowhere near as "mellow" looking as the minute indices on the WM9 dial. I realize I'm comparing a Sub to an Exp.II but they just seem too white and bright compared to those on the gen dials. Is it just me or is it so?? Or perhaps pbdad would have a method of "toning them down a notch" without aging them?? Also....do you happen to know if the gen crown will screw onto the existing stem and will it screw onto the existing tube?? If not, do you recall which tube is needed for the gen crown?? I believe the crown is the 6mm 24-603 Thanks, buddy. DR
  9. Wow...that looks GREAT. Nice job, my friend.
