On this first Mother's Day since my mother's passing, a piece she always commented in... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A couple of days ago my wife gave birth to our lovely baby girl. Today it's "Mother's Day" so it's time to give her her present. The Oyster Precision I bought from HartDoc which I had engraved .... Can't wait to see her face Loïs says hi! The Oyster completely refurbished of course...

Tanks to all mothers:

I swapped an IWC rep and an GP movement just for fun. Not having the 12 in the right place seemed pretty silly though.

PP equally at home on canvas as on rubber or steel!

Who does the best rep of this bad boy?

That is a variant of the MKII Paradive. Check them out, Bill Yao is a great guy, he and MKII are located in Pennsylvania. http://www.mkiiwatches.com/watch-collections/professional-series/paradive/

You're game??! NEVER say that around a bear! :-)

How about some of this on the Diamond Watch World Tour 2013?

Here's another pic, SSTEEL might recognize the place since it seems both of us are Fins

I'm in!

The difference between the gen black bezel is the numbers aren't painted on (as is the case in the rep) The numbers/markers in the gen hollowed out in the ceramic bezel and then filled in with a Chromium nitrite compound and then the bezel is smoothed around the compound and the ceramic to make it flush. It is definitely not painted on. The chromium nitrate compound used for the numbers is extremely hard, harder than the ceramic bezel around it. This is for the black bezels . The LM blue bezel is constructed in a different way using zirconium oxide (LM) but again it is hollowed out markers and numbers and is smoothed later. There is no way of removing the numbers on either, you would have to destroy the bezel to do it. Unfortunately this is a case where the reps are just mimicking the look, they certainly didn't go through this process.....but I would've hoped they would use more durable paint

So just to clarify!! The GEN dial WILL fit the Swiss movement, With mods Or Without? Because if it fit without a gen movement then that would've been a "dream" franken For me ofcourse.
