usually the 1680 case fits a larger diameter dial (to make room for the date) so unless you know the diameter first...

by "piece by piece" i mean part by part. to buy every original part and put it together has to cost more. what some people ask for bracelets and inserts is just crazy. cheapest 1970s 5513 all original to the era complete watch (bracelet, b n p, serviced last year) i can find is $6800 (or $6k head only). if you come in under that, youre ahead i guess.

dont bother

most times youre paying more piece by piece. thats why most people stop short of getting a gen case and rolex movement. thats where it gets out of hand

that is awesome! didnt even realize they were making a black edition. i know people had hoped for it. with the gilt dial , red triangle and everything! sweet piece

fonts look like my mark 3 insert

women just dont get it i tried an AP on in st.thomas, the guy working there let me step outside the store to see how it looked in daylight. was taken back by his level of trust. in north america you need to be let in to see the rolex watches, and most places here have security guards eyeing you.

great work TC!

theres one shop in saint maarten that sells it all in one place. unusual to see omega and rolex in the same shop these days, they also had tudor, cartier, AP, JLC, panerai. i guess they had some good leverage to be the only shop to represent all these brands

i got some gen tritium 5513 hands. if interested make me an offer CGs still need doing. the backside of the cgs are also a definite indicator of it not being an original case and i dont think you can easily fix that issue.

as is the case with almost all rep vintage subs, even the mbk/mbw has a pretty low crown compared with gen. par for the course unless you spend some big bucks. you will just have to accept it as a budget build and enjoy it as is.

you could spend close to the price of a used one in the end

only eta?

hello what kind of work do you do in Nicaragua?

polywatch works for me. toothpaste never did the trick

OR a gen fat crown 703

the dial print is horrendous, the coronet on the dial is just terrible. its kind of fuzzy and the wrong proportions and the color is kind of greyish. the date window is also kind of low and the hands are definitely Clarks hands. bracelet is a rep bracelet and not a good one. everything else looks genuine, but the case is over polished in my opinion, the spring bars are through the holes and the mid case is starting to get rounded on the sides. id say its worth at least $3200 U.S

how long has he been a co worker? its one thing to scam to try and scam a stranger but to scam someone you will see everyday on end. based on the price it probably is a scam, since he could definitely get more for it on pawn if it is indeed genuine

any blue inserts ? : D

thats really good i actually thought it was gen (mostly is :D)

no. buy a replacement saph crystal from ebay instead

very nice piece!

the case back and bezel ring are better on the version with the stumpy CGs. 1 step forward, 2 steps back
