  8. Ok she is on the wrist for a couple of hours now. Little background information. I am mainly a four and five digit guy and I have tried to love the modern Rolexes but always seem to go back to vintage. First impression: Awesome wrist presence. I was able to get bracelet sized just right. Not quite ready to try and mess with the spring bars to try the fabric strap yet and not sure that will work for me anyways as it will make it sit a touch higher. I have ordered a nice strap from B&S for it. In direct sunlight the dial gives off some cool vintage looking grey tones. After wearing my 1675 in to work today, the BBB is huge by comparison. Not in a bad way but just much beefier. So far it really is better than expected. Has the modern ruggedness and durability but with some vintage flair and notes. The touch of black on the crown tube is a nice addition. Dial is really good, be nice if it was the old school relief gilt but it definitely looks the part. Just does not offer the same effect in sunlight that a real gilt dial does. The lume is truly awesome. After just a few minutes outside she really glows. All and all very happy so far. This may turn out to be a very good relationship at much less cost and risk of wearing a collectable vintage piece. Hopefully this quenches my thirst for another vintage gilt sub. I know my wife would be much happier with this one...LOL

  11. It's gonna have to go to dbane to get a bevel like that! If you get the Cartel watch you will have a movement spacer. For all practical purposes if you start with an A2836 Cartel 5512/13 all you need to do is massage the CGs a bit, drill lugs, get the back engraved, and do a dial/hand swap.

  12. Once a month my 1675 may have the correct date. Today is not that day. Changing dates on a 1675 is a recipe for carpel tunnel syndrome.

  13. Thanks! I guess there are not many left these days, I emailed a parts hoarder friend of mine and the next day it magically arrived at my door, I got very lucky.

  18. Breast Cancer awareness day at the office. Anyone seen The League's season 6 episode on Breast Cancer? Taco starts his own awareness campaign on breasts. Meanwhile, I suppose pink is supportive.

  20. I feels as if that was merely a blip in our time here at RWG, and I would have gone through that X times to be presented with a resolution, later resulting in a friendship. It was a fantastic test of both our characters! I rarely use this forum, but when I do, your name time and time again pops up, providing a fountain of knowledge, wit and in times of need, security against such people above. You're the man A!

  21. I haven't personally dealt with them but they're a TD with a good reputation. Just make sure you get the correct site and you'll be fine.

  22. LOL, did not wear off....found one this morning. It will be here tomorrow. Some guy on one of the forums said, "The modern Tudor is the Tyler Durden of Rolex" that sold me.

  23. they are too thin. You will have issues unless you build up to the correct thickness. It is critical that the dial plate is held tight against the dial recess under the rehaut. The best option is a noob or h factory sandwich dial backplate.
