I too stayed away from electric as a preferes a good manual scrub, but now we have what looks like a manual but is also electric so you can still have a good scrub but with the added advantage of the cleaning of an auto.
My 8yr old had to point out that we could turn them on though :cc_surrender:
There was a post some where here with the gen part numbers that you require to get i am not sure how much they were but i would say that would be the better fix than just shortening the stem.
How about a nice plain AirKing or the silix rolex presision @ $130 or some thing like that, I got my mum a daydate from josh a year ago and she has thin wrists an 34mm looks perfect, but if her eyes get any worse it will be a fiddy next year!
As it is a rep chrono i would only recomend Ziggy but he is taking time off for now. I cant think of any others, does any one else know of any one who will service an asian 7750?
The Product placement in Casino Royal was all over the place from the deliberate "Rolex? No Omega!" to the phones and even the ford focus, it was all branding, ace film though. Next time you watch it try to count all the brand names that are used promenently, i keep loosing count!
A very honerable project in my view, why not gut a rep for the case and crystal. a dial i think will be the bigest problem, i have a coupe i dials that look like an unbranded 1680 if you want with great lume, they wont fit the movement but with dial dots any thing is possible.
I think the pasat year has been outstanding for new reps, we have seen every thing from cheep asian Chopard GT to the super expencive HBB and every thing in between that we have called "super", a new rolex that diect from china took gen parts and survived the deep with the gen. We have been blessed this year and spoilt for choice but if i had to then for me:-
What i own

Im sorry i wont be very eloquant but the [censored] just dropped out of the world, this is what bitching and snipping has achived, and all the words that i would have wanted to to used are censored like [censored]in [censored] stop being a bunch of [censored] sucking twats and grow up just try to be civil to one another and normal. i tell you all what we just lost number 1 asset. [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored]. lets have a GTG so i can tell you all what i feel! lets do it at my house pm me for the address.
Thanks guys, i would say from that that the AR on the SOSF is about same as the gen when i had voth together that day the spots shoed up the same and in daylight they gave the blue tone the same. now where can i find a gen ingy to compare?
