I would say stIck with what you have they are hard to get now

I popped the pearl out stuck it in my lathe and polished it like that and then used a 2pm drill bit in a pin vize to make the bezel hole larger then glue it all back together

Thanks Watcher, it is more the colour of the bezel that digs at me, it is just a bit too? well too blue. Ryaku, i may go for some finedd AR next time i send anything down to Uwe, i sold my black gen by the way so we are equal on the frankens. Red the basic watch from mary at less than $200 is well worth it, Even had a swiss 2824 fitted! I may relume that dial and sell it on to bring the costs down on this as well.

Oh the rep with the correct HE position is from Mary at watchinternational and it was a great service that i recieved and the case takes a gen tube with out problems just pull out the old one, pop the new on in the freeser for and hour and then push it in (still stiff but that ensures for a good fit!)

Just quick post on this as it is not that special, but thanks to a great deal on a Gen dial movement and hands i started building this on as i have always been a bond fan. the recipe Gen dial gen hands gen 1120 movement gen tube gen crown gen bracelet (i got a great deal on this brand new) Rep case and bezel (pearl polished and recessed, but the lume is still crap compared to the dial) Any one got a gen bezel insert???????? I think the crown guards could be a touch shorter but apart from that i could add AR but the easrly 1120 gens did not have any as afar as i know. quite any easy project this one.

If the person who originally asked does not want it then inwill offer it out. It Cost me€50 Clown and Tube New in the bag

Ten thousand posts! Guys thanks for all the great times I have spent here, Thanks for the great friends I have made here, virtually and real Thanks for all the great information that I have learned from here. Since I joined this forum back on the 2nd April 2006 my life has had some changes, I got older, and I started a new career and will soon be finishing an old one. I have spent too much on watches that I can only wear two at a time and even then I look stupid but I don’t care! Thank you all But in particular the Admin and moderating team for making this place what it is. There are so many other names that I would like to mention but am scared to do in case I miss some one out but to all those I owe thanks to, THANK YOU Now here is to 10000 more

An Admiral today just not in a force 9

It is a shame that bubbled but you have made an interesting dial that looks like it has had a life in interesting (and Hot)circumstaces

Very good photos of a great watch, that date wheel will get lots of people interested in the ingys again i think.

Now you just need to make it look old, send it up to Nanug for a bit of aging! Only joking, looks stunning

Very Nice R, i just found the one i built was too small, why did the lugs have to be drilled on the 1601 case? are they smaller lug holes on that?

I have managed to get hold of one could you get in touch with me, i cant find the PM Edit dont worry found it now
