THE FINAL AND MOST IMPORTANT PIC.....

He told me but I told him not to say anything ......

PPCo.

The rubber etc including screws etc can be ordered direct from Angus' site it's under hublot accessories Crystals can be bought from Angus too but you need to contact them direct in addition you can try Rochest at watchesinternational (in dealer section) However Mikey was selling gen size crystals with clear AR. I don't know if he has any left but he has a small shop section on RG just go there and see updates or PM him direct on RG. In addition a WTB wouldn't hurt as guys that bought Mikey's crystal will have a spare makers crystal from swapping them round

Thanks! Now I'm starting to think maybe I need to sell the Snowflake and pick up that 5514 project currently for sale. That thing sings to me.

lol..youre so funny..

Well said guys!! These last few posts are what this thread was intended to be about, not to start a flame war, or get into a shouting contest about who is right or wrong here or why. It is simply to let folks know that there is a problem with a particular member who does repair work, period. Whether you believe about this particular member is going to be affected by your own dealings with him and/or your personal relationships with him, that's normal and that's life. You can go on Amazon and pick out any popular item there, and if it has lots of reviews, there are going to be plenty of 5 star, but there will also be some 1 star, Not everyone is going to be satisfied every time, however like Amazon, if you have a product with 50 reviews and 45 are 1-2 star, and only 2 or 3 are 5 star, then you need to look at that product pretty darn carefully before shelling out your money. Unfortunately on this forum ,we can't give 1-5 star reviews, we can leave negative feedback, but it's not that easy for someone who doesn't know how to find it to see reviews. If we had a rating system like Amazon for all the dealers and watch repair service providers, we wouldn't need threads like this, but we don't so this is what we need to do to make certain that all interested parties are provided with enough information that they can make and intelligent, informed decision. How many times in life have you said, after a bad experience with a repair person, a car dealership, etc.. "man, I wish someone had warned me about then before I spent my hard earned money and got a shoddy job" I know I have and it would have been great if I could have had some way of really checking up on a deal before I spent the money. That's call due diligence, but for due diligence to really work, you have to have enough information to make an intelligent decision

I just bought a seconds at 9, 3-6-9 layout 7750 from Hont on RWI for $100 plus shipping. I think most TD can source them.

Answer to Lapince: Check out Leno´s Garage Fiat 1917 Botafogo Special 22l WWI Aero and the wonderful Bugatti on Youtube and You have all the answers. He wears his replicas in public and with pride because they are unique and there are things in life you want to look at and feel and touch, if there is no original around a rep gives You 80% to 90% of the fun and emotion I`´ d say.

It's poor form to start this discussion in another individual's thread about their watch. If you're unfamiliar with the internet and forums my recommendation for you is to create your own thread to discuss your completely separate topic. Cheers and welcome. In addition this is a tired and beat up discussion that you can easily find opinions on WUS and other places. Just leave it as "different strokes for different folks." BTW, absolutely NOTHING about this build is "buying a rep." What you see here in the desire to create something identical to the original in almost every way possible.
