Ok Guys pick out the faults (apart from the fact that most dont like it) lettering in the rehaut looks a bit grey not black the insert looks black with grey not black and while and i am not sure from the photo if it if has a ceramic bezel gen A case back shot from Josh would be good And repeat after me I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex,I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex,I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex,I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex,I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex,I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex, I dont need a rolex,

Rep 99 % sure, cheep chinese crap, but i will give you 50 bucks for it

Well it is big enough for Tony Soprano, i think we are just used to big watches

It feels different because the one you have (serial number 42) is from one solid piece of buffalo.

Nice watch and strap there mate

Eurotimez has them

Me neither, i think he has a number of watches to sell but has to be a collector in order to sell in that volume, i think, the 50/50 bit not sure

Welcome David, a fine introduction, ans one thing this place is great for is improving your English, but is was fine for the introduction and i am sure you will get along just fine.

So Sorry ken,

Just pm me your address

I have a spare clasp if you need it, it opens very easily but it is yours if required

Thanks Dirk It was worth the wait for the hands, i had a bit of a problen with hour wheel slippage, and could not find an oring thin enough to sit below the min hand to hold the hour and and wheel down, but i have just reset the min hand again and it does not look like the hour wheel will lift off the drive gear now.

I like watches too but for my 5000 post i thought i would face up to the truth, I have a problem but i have found a support group that meets in parts of Europe and we all have a similar problem. But non of us know how to stop it. Any you know what we dont care, I am happy to live with this one. Thank you RWG and all the great members here. I really believe i have made a couple of real friends from this place, and you know who you are!

I dont think that the crown in question is a spring loaded one, if the crown and stem are still solid together then it may be damage to the winding pinion and clutch wheel. But beacause you say the lever is now loose it leads me to believe that the crown has screwed down tighter on the stem making is shorter and then makeing the winding pinion and clutch wheel not fit together well

I am toying with the same idea, i was thinking of a mirrored back to the dial to catch more light. BTW you have PM

very easily, go to a watch smiths, generaly the normal battery change place you can find in a market place# or you can do it on a leather strap with just about any thing you will find in the kitchen drawer, with a a bit of care, you need to slip a thin knife edge between the strap and lug to be able to compress the spring bar by catching it between the groves, you will also have to compress the leather a bit. Once you have done it a couple of times you can do it with you eyes closed. but a tool like this is better But if you dont feel confident just find a watch smiths to do it for you but NOT and Authorsed Distributor

Best place to start mate. if the end looks ok then see if it is still tight in the crown

Why not look about and read Bytors guide to the best rolex reps and then the collector reviews and make a decision based on that, no links sorry i am too lazy to go and find them.

You might have stripped some threads from the stem or crown may just be a simple loctite job to fix it, does every thing look in order in the back, are there any teeth missing from the winding gears and are they all lining up correctly

beer any one

Good photo Bazz

I am surprised that you did not like the VC, i dont have one my self but it always appeals to me
