I have a spare 1655 bezel i can mesure it for you when i get home tomorrow if you want to see if it fits

Have you got a Gen dial???

Wooo and it is limited to 11007, gona be a rare one this!!!!

That was one of IWCs strong points untill the new line of multicoloured Aquatimers came out, but they still have some nice understated models

I think the only differences in the dial is the the tone of my aftermarket AR, the standard rep AR did not seam to have any colour to it and also not a lot of AR effect also, I know one of the things Uwe is always trying to do is get the blue tone as it is more gen like on many watches but the lad cant do it right now, we had a long discussion in it the other day, Caused by the fact that from a large run of similar crystals that 2 turned out with a blue tone and the rest were gold, and no one knows why. @ Concepta, PM Me if you happen to have a set of gen hands spare please

I hope you mean Modder/watchsmith, Not AD as in Authorised Distributor have a look here for how mine looks with the gold AR

I have new Hard finish gold AR and it looks just fine, I know IWC has a blue tone to its AR but i dont know where to get it done, all i know is the AR i get done by sweetwatches.de works and is VERY hard wearing.

Edge being as you have done all the detective work here and know all the history can you dig out of your archives or sources some photos of the straps that SQL has sold (we can compare the raw data with other photos he has posted and see if they were the same camera ect) and the gen straps and point out the differences, I think this may provide us with some concrete evidence if you can

I have heard that they do week days and week end courses as well, you will learn more in one week than you will in a month of on line learning, but the TZ will teach you if you have the motoric skills to work on a large movement

You will find the BHI courses far more intence than the TZ course On that you learn to do one movement, I have heard that the BHI course teach you alot more, in far more depth and not just ETA movements, your theoretical knoledge will be wide and deep, What you learn on the TZ course is the work zou would be expected to do in 2 hours as a watch smith, that is to strip, cleen and reassemble an ETA movement.

The Proof is what we are looking for through a lot of (old and new) information, and as soon as we have that then we will make a decision.

Another quick point is the dial, hands crystal clearance in these is tight so fit your hands with care.

That was quick Olly i thought i had seen a post only last night that you were looking for one?

It has been going up daily over the last 2 years, and that price is pretty good to be honest!

Different movement than the "rolex" pictured as the rolly has a 2 position crown where as the one for sale has a pin depress to set the time, shame he does not say how big it is though, I suspect in the 30mm area though.

Gran i dont know what you are trying to say, but if you were in a similar situation would you rather we just rushed in or took the time to make a correct and informed decision.

I have seen every thing that has been presented and non of it is enought to convict at the moment, so please put the pich fork down.

If you happen to have documetary evidence please show it here in the open then

John is paying a visit to his Italian neighbor in the hospital, who just had a very serious traffic accident. He doesn't look like very much: in plaster, completely wrapped in a bandage, tons of hoses and infusions. he looks like a mummy. John tries to have a conversation, but his neighbor has his eyes closed and isn't responding. Suddenly his eyes jump wide open and he starts to gurgle and during his last gasp for air he says: "Mi stai bloccando il d'tubicino ossigeno, Pezzo di merda ...." John inscribes the words in his heart. At the funeral John tells the black-clad widow that her husband had something to say. 'And, she asks with tearful eyes,"was it that he loved me? " "I do not know," said the man, "but it sounded like Mi stai bloccando il d'tubicino ossigeno, pezzo di merda ...." The widow screams and faints. "What?" John ask startled to the daughter, "what did he say, what does that mean?" And the crying daughter says: "You are standing on my oxygen hose, you git."

I was in the restaurant yesterday when I suddenly realized I desperately needed to pass gas. The music was really, really loud, so I timed my gas with the beat of the music. After a couple of songs, I started to feel better. I finished my coffee, and noticed that everybody was staring at me.... Then I suddenly remembered that I was listening to my iPod.

No it is $159 if he has any at that price http://www.ofrei.com/page_183.html

The MK XVI

Just imagine that he wanted to test your vintage sub with the knife, i wonder how quick i could remove it from his hands and test him with it to see if he was real.

I think in the modern western world which most of us are used to, it is for the prosicution to prove guilt rather than the other way round?

sweet watch what movement?
