hope no one points it out, you dont want some the sites owner posting that these are fakes and getting freddy too much attention

definitely contact spin first, most of the guys on the forum are good people, they aren't looking to rip people off.

wow the shark looks great, rep and gen, both amazing!

I have the gen heritage chrono's in black and grey, a older 7032 and 7031 with poljot movements, and have the dw casesets for the black and grey 7032's. To each their own, i love the size of the heritage chrono's. Then again, i don't have the proper bracelets and my 7032/7031's aren't really finished products.

wow dead topic revival! i wonder what did happen to everyone's rose subs.

Not sure if this is the place, but i saw another post of the heritage chrono gen here, so i decided to share a pic of mine, amongst others in my collection. Enjoy!

if zig says so, it must be true! asides from whats posted on the site, and a few random pictures here and there, we really have no idea if any of this stuff exists!

I suspected this for a while since a member here a while ago posted pictures of two MC frankens he had that both had Poljot 3133's in them.

Still, I would not mind having that one since it would be more affordable to poor folks like me.

Cheers

Started looking into watches again and noticed someone mentioned me! I bought these 2 frankens ages ago, look at the 2008 post date. They do have poljot 3133s in them. If anyone needs better pictures, let me know, i can open them up and post some better pics for reference.

wow seems this model is getting some attention. have both the black and gray gen's and they are definitely up there with the way the rolex feels on my wrist.

Found my paul newman daytona 6263 on my table, and realized it has not been touched for close to 2 years, decided that it would either eventually get some wrist time, or get sold. Probably getting sold, but looking to see if i were to get it touched up some more, what would i need.

i paid ~200 each for 2 2 years back, manage to break one, these things are hard to find.

hi, pm box was full for the past few days and i did not get any messages, i forgot my login as well and took me a few days to get that figured out! i will have to dig through it, i bought the 7031/7032 complete from another member, but i have not been in contact with him for a while, he sources great watches, also bought a newman 6263 from him with a valjoux 727 winding movement, if and when i find this contact again, i will make a post and people can msg me for his info. the tudor dial from him might very well be a gen, but i can't be sure, i have never seen another version where the dial was as accurate as his.

the automatic montecarlo is a gen.

same for T21...

i must be on a roll, i paid 20 for one from sheartime, and another for 3.25 shipped from another seller. i think the t21 from sheartime is real hopefully

found this too late, a few weeks back i bought a 7835 with 357 ends, got the wrong ends too, needed something else, guess this is going to sit around in my parts box.

I have this 1665 DSDR

and I would like to remove the glass. I try to do it with my press but it doesn't seems to move

Re bracelet - Yes, the bracelet is brand new from Rolex. It is a 7836 with 358B endlinks which I understand is a standard service replacement item. Unfortunately it has the shield emblem but at least it feels correct for the period and it cost

Ray T, if its not gen that is the best aftermarket dial out there the finish between the grey and black is much more crisp and the home plate indices are the correct size (touching the minute track).

A fine collection you have there -wear them well!

Thank you for the much needed info. Now all i need to know is if the poljot 3133 movement in mine has the same size hands as the valjoux 7734 which it is based off of.

i tightened the crown too tightly on one of my other non noob watches and the tube snapped. quite rare i bet.

My source told me that if anyone was interested, i could send them his way. If anyone is interested, just shoot me a pm, and i will point you in the right direction.

Ray T, very nice collection indeed!

I don't think your 7032 needs to be touched, it looks like a genuine dial you've got there .

As for your 7031, I agree a better matched color on the chrono hand would do the trick.

Thanks toomuchgear, i saw your thread. The 7032 i have no clue if the dial is gen, it just looks a lot lighter then the one in the 7031. the 7031 dial looks a bit like phoungs dial. The only gens in the pictures are the ones with bracelets attached. Definitely will work on the hands, and work some new crystals into it.

Have 1 gen crystal on the way. The 7031 needs a new hand or some paint on the hand. The crown guards look horrible? The movements are Poljot 3133's. The 7031 case is .5mm thicker then the 7032. Any advice would be awesome. I spent a pretty penny on these project watches, I know they are far from perfect. The cases have proper case markings for the watches. 7031 and 7032. I have no clue where these were sourced from.

7032

7031

Is it a direct swap? hand sizes? Is the bridge transferable between them?

the angle of the brookstone winder is maybe a bit too shallow to wind the watch properly, you might have a sticky rotor that requires a winder that is vertical or has a steeper angle.

one just has a gasket on, the gasket one seems to be clarks? but the pictures don't really show the beveling to well on the gen.
