  1. Check your lower pusher. It looks like the cap may be loose (when the cap is properly screwed-down onto the stem, the splines should not show).

  3. You need to get the one that fits your case. Different height, different stem positions, not a "drop in" swap. When you deal with watches, you are talking hundreds of an inch or thousands of and inch. Just because it looks like it will fit, doesn't mean it will!! You can sometimes make things fit with different movement rings, spacers, etc. but if something is "made to fit" it will generally be more trouble free than something that is "adapted to fit".

  7. I'm not too worried about the incorrect fast beat movement - no one's gonna call you out because your supposedly 20k watch "ticks" too smoothly. What bothers me the most is that the hands are often a few shades whiter than the dial indices. Can make the watch look unbalanced. I've sent mine to Kenny for a dial/hands re-lume to match. A double AR crystal also makes a huuuuge difference. Takes the watch to another planet IMO. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  8. I only dealt with Baleinedessable and God was on my side. I brought over $2000 in stuff from him, starting with a set of automatic winding gears from a 3135. After that I saw a phong case for a 16610 and I brought that for $800. I brought a band for my sub from him. I brought a Gen bezel assembly with insert. Bunch of other small things. When I got them, I thought he was the cats meow. I send everything to my watch maker, Mike (Misiekped) who I trust undoubtedly! He said to me that The case was not a phong case. The case didn't fit my gen 3135. He said that the bezel assembly also is not Gen. Then also with that stuff Baleinedessable didn't add the back of the case or did he add the crystal retaining ring with the bezel assembly, which both were to be included. When I called him, he said that he would mail it. Also the ceramic red gears for the auto bridge. He sent me one instead of two. Then he told me that as a set it only comes as one because there is a small gear inside of the other and that was what he meant as set. He told me he would send me that too. The band. Not even close to being real. Color of steal way off and the markings were not close. This shows you how good God is. I didn't have to do anything or notify anyone.After I got the news from Mike that the case wouldn't take real 3135, I get an email from paypal about my account. I log in and I have a crazy amount of money in my account. I also have like 4 emails from Baleinedessable. He is apologizing about something that is going on with his account. He then asks me to wire the money into his bank account or to wait a couple of days because he was setting up a new paypal. I asked him to call me. He did. I asked him what was going on. He explained to me that his account is set up personal and that they saw all the transactions with high amounts going in his account. He said they asked him to verify them as non business and he couldn't so they froze his account and reversed all the sells. He said they wanted a crazy amount of VAT tax or something like that. That was when I told him that the stuff he gave me was fake. He said that the case was a phong case and that he had a Yuki in it. I told him Mikes name and at that point, I guess he knew that Mike knows his stuff., he gave me another option. To return everything to him if I wanted. That was the option I did. So this week I had a dealing with Phong. His name came up. I thought phong was going to have a stroke. He called him a fraud and that the case in question was not one of his cases. All his 16610 cases take 3135 and 3035's. I'm glad someone did something with him. I didn't complain. I am new. I didn't think anyone would listen. I wanted to in the worst way. He kept posting the pics of the case. People kept commenting on the misaligns of stuff. His stories were never right. My intuition always was up with his stories. I don't like to judge and thought maybe he just didn't know any better but I see now that he is just a scammer and fraud. Thanks Mike on a Bike and RWG for having out back and investigating him. The other guy. Never dealt with him. Stay safe everyone. Robert
