  3. Shot this at the bay for the price of 7734 movement. I think it is out of the ordinary with its vibrant colors. Unfortunately after setting it a few times the date won't change anymore. Will have to open it up soon and make use of the chronograph course Inrecently started.

  4. That HR case is so thick.... It's definitely better after a little diet! The bezel was carved too to reach a closer profile to genuine. A swiss T39 was shaved and repolished to recreate the same side profile as the stock HR sapphire and so be pressed fit WITHOUT GLUE in place. A clean and tidy build, as the bezel insert was shaved thinner for it be be clipped in as well. No glue here ! All clean and dry fitted.

  5. Here is a build based on the late JF series. What needed to be done was mostly recessing the crown seat and cutting the bezel smaller by reducing the outer diameter. Other than than, usual reshape of the top of the lugs, redrill of the lug holes and reprofile of the CGs. Everything was aged roughly, then carefullt restaured. Bracelet was sand blasted and repolished as well. It's VERY smooth now, and without any grease of some sort... Crystal is swiss, dial is from Vietnam, crown is from Athaya, flat 4 insert is a cartel old stock aged and thinned like the gens to snap in the bezel without any glue leaving a clean step up around.

  6. Evening all. Sorry for my delayed response. I received an explanation, an apology, and a full refund from the seller. I understand that sometimes things happen that are completely out of our control. No harm, no foul. I would suggest in the future a quick email out to customers would belay some issues. Thanks to the seller for the refund. Thanks to the Mods for your assistance. I still think the bracelets look to be very well done, and I would be interested in revisiting my order in the future when the seller is ready if this is not an issue with the seller or the Mods.

  8. That pin has small sliced ends, once this pin is pushed through the central part, its normally manoeuvred into place, and pushed into the two other parts either side, you can do this yourself, but use some two part epoxy resin, and clamp the parts shut whilst the adhesive cures.

  9. ...I understand his question as if a gen tube will fit the Hmaker case. The gen crown will fit the gen tube, no prob...

  10. I don't believe a gen crown will fit the rep tube, so best to get a matching gen pair.

  15. Hi guys. I'm just a newbie who just wrote some newbic questions for a few times. But those stupid questions are answered by friendly experts of this forum and thanks to that, I could complete my 1016 build. It was just sudden that I just fall in love with 1016 although I didn't even know if there is a watch like that before I enter this forum. I took a look at 1016 pics around this forum and google, I wanted to have both leather and folded 7836 bracelet. My 1016 build spec is as follows. Case - JMB Crown - Rep provided with JMB case set Crystal - provided with JMB case set Dial - Yuki Hands - Yuki Movement - Clone 2824(Seagull) Bracelet - Josh JMB was communicative and he is the one who answered my noob question for the most of the time. I appreciate that Justin. PM him if you want to inquire any good quality case for datejust or exlporer. -JMB : http://www.rwgforum.net/user/24124-jmb/ I'm not sure Yuki's dial and hands are correct enough but I can guarantee that they are well made with sharp&vivid printings. Lume is not bad but not superb neither. I'm saying maybe because I compared my 1016 to seiko divers which has super hyper bright lume -Yuki : www.yukiwatch.com Seagull 2824 clone movement has very beautiful decorations which is always good to have. I've heard they are reliable if I give it a good service regulary as most of other eta clone movement. -An Ebay seller : http://www.ebay.com/itm/321467374718?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Bracelet from josh has good quality and I have some good news for you guys which is not the happiest news for me. I bought the bracelet from josh and I proceeded my purchasing of Aussy spring bars and WSO 580 endlinks because I've heard they fits well with jmb case. Moreover, I heard that endlink of josh's bracelet doesnt fit well with jmb case. So I odered bracelet from josh and also ordered wso580 endlinks and aussie spring bars. However, Josh's bracelet came to me earlier(actually I didn't even received spring bars and 580 endlinks yet. I'm in South Korea which is close to hongkong) and I found that they have really good fitting with jmb enhanced case. It fits without any modification and I just cannot find any unbalanced point. it just fits good. -Josh : www.pf-818.com -WSO : http://www.ebay.com/itm/171022393380?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT -Aussie spring bars : http://www.ebay.com/itm/351011434208?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT I posted links of each parts for future-coming noobs like me as they would be helpful. now, let me show you my 1016. Photos will tell thounds of words.
