  1. Bobby if you want a 3717 then go and buy an version 3 asian 7750, get it serviced and lumed, buy ETA day and date wheels and you will have 99% at 10% of the price, if the watch that will last almost forever as long as you get it serviced every 5 years, or just buy a V3 and use it, if you fall in love with it then get it modded
  2. There is nothing wrong with the a7750, any the hands wont fit and neither will the dial.
  3. Running fine mate, i gave it too the wife for christmas!
  4. And just to confirm, the one i have listed you can only remove the movement from the front.
  5. Thanks for that Francisco, at lest i made my regulator mod a bit better then theirs then, I was toying with the idea of stetting 3 cap jewels into the area under the transfer gear and the new hour wheel to get rid of a bit of friction, good idea?? would be a 23 jewel movement then as well BTW when you look at mine remember i did it with nothing more than proxon drill press as tooling
  6. Welcome to RWG, you have found the best horological forum.
  7. Simo, a simple sports watch with a crown and nothing else, with a good crystal seal and the case back sealed and tight i would swim with, and i have but chronos have 50% more chance to let water in, I have a leak checker but even if a chrono passes i would rather swim with a simple sport watch, when i know a watch i will also do stupid things with it like this http://s56.photobucket.com/albums/g199/fxrandy/schuhren/?action=view&current=DSCF0056.flv and if that does not work try My link but i take care with chronos!
  8. Toadtorrent Dluddy Honkytonkman Ubi Redwatch? Aeromatic Mctower DVN Dr Pubis McRea Siesta181 Maximilian Nacortheblue HPY540 x2 Kbh Lanikai your on the list mate
  9. I think the perfect candidates for these are the Omega GMTs and Pam GMTs as they will fit gen hands ect, they will make a very reliable rolex GMT but it will still be incorrect hand stack.

  11. I saw them in the release info for basel this year, not yet seen them in a catalog.
  12. Bergeon just brought this out also, non marking!
  13. now where has the drooling smily gone :{.....
  14. I used a low dome due to the height of the rehaute and the lack of a high rehaute in the gen. If you look in my sig and use the search you will find the 2 topics with my mods as ongoing projects and the finished result
  15. Always worth repairing The things with crystals always order 3, the size you want, one smaller and one larger unless you are sure. I have modded a couple of moonys to plexy so speaking from experience here. if the crystal you measured is 33.0mm then you want a 330 crystal. Get in touch if you have any questions.
  16. Welcome to RWG
  17. Thanks Hike, it has been a while since i read a nice long review like that, great photos too!
  18. As soon as i have them i will let you all know of the final price, once i can get good insured shipping price to the states, europe is about
  19. These are paid for and on the way to me from Switzerland I will PM the people above when i have them in my hands, if any one else wants in there are a couple still spare. What ever is left will be on the bay to the highest bidder. If you know people on other forums let them know also please
  20. well i found i could have done it in elements if i had known what i was doing. Tenacity was what it needed!
  21. Welcome to the club OS
  22. Thanks hike, and the rest i have managed to do what i wanted to a bad degree but it is fit for purpose, PS4 is pretty complex, but i realized in the end what i needed were layers. and parts of the dial in layers, Problem with net books is that you dont have a disk drive, now i am wondering if i could do what i want using the photoshop elements that have pre-installed?????
  23. Thanks guys i have a trial of PS4 but i am pulling my hair out with it
  24. Was lume reference if on thew older dial freddy, was it t 25 or just Swiss made, I only know of radium marking or a + in a circle on military dials, they may well have had radium or another substance in the lume.
