  1. I was actually suggesting that you put the overlay face down on a hard surface and then gently lower the datewheel onto it with Rodico. You mark both the overlay and datewheel on the edge (hidden by the dial upon completion) at an alignment point (in line with the bottom of the 2s on 22, for instance) and gently line them up before letting it stick. A datewheel is a much easier object to manipulate than an overlay.
  2. Any pics to show us exactly what you're on about? ps. Have you thought of putting the datewheel on the overlay instead of putting the overlay on the datewheel?
  3. If I had the cash, I'd be in for one. Unfortunately, I don't have the cash. Good luck, people.
  4. If you can afford a 400k car, you can afford amazing Champagne. If you can afford a 400k car, you're likely to treat it as well as I would treat my car. It's only an expensive car if you can't afford it.
  5. Great first post. I look forward to seeing your Breitling. Welcome aboard.
  6. Today is a 3717 day. I'll take it off to make scones, but that's about it.
  7. The cost of the car should not matter.
  8. Yeah, who here buys watches for practical reasons?
  9. Surplus, NOS, recovered serviced, recovered unserviced? Old style with 17j or newer version? Decorated, plain? A clear photo will do.
  10. $300 would get you a DIY Sub kit with the parts needed (lume kit, bezel/pearl) but when you factor in labour costs, you're looking at considerably more.
  11. Which 7750 is it?
  12. Plus all the duties and taxes ...
  13. Damn, my second-hand pitchfork shares just went down in value.
  14. Me. First time out, I sent it off to Palpatine to fix. Second time out, I followed Joe and Bazz's tutorials. http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=25156 http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=9794
  15. $500 isn't a high price for a Tourbillon.
  16. The MS70029, if I'm not mistaken.
  17. If it's got a working Tourbillon, like this, it's a bargain at $500. Sure, it's Chinese, but it's still a bargain.
  18. I thought these turned out to be fakes. Although the "Often seen on stewardesses' bedside tables" one for the Big Pilot was real.
  19. I am incredibly jealous.
  20. sounds like a tooth could be missing or something.
  21. Simple fix, if you're adept with decasing and hand/dial removal.. If you just follow my 7750 datewheel tutorial, you can reseat the wheel.
  22. Yes, and once we've ascertained for a fact that the person did in fact make these threats without provocation, I'll gladly carry your torch as a pitchfork needs two hands to brandish properly. Until then, all we can do is tut under our breaths.
  23. I've not worn it enough to be able to answer those questions.
