  1. Send A PM to Admin I am sure he will know what has happened Include you paypal name in the PM
  2. The watch replica report is as big a scam as the sites they promote, read what every one has said above
  3. Sorry yes silk screaning pad prining is differnet, not sure if they use pad printing for lume.
  4. I am no rolex expert but todays dials of all sorts not just rolex are generaly pad printed, which means that an even layer of lume is layed on by machine over the whole area to be lumed pushed through a thin gause, in an old dial that had been hand lumed the lume will be placed bit by bit in the center of the area to be lumed and then spread out to cover the area, more would be in the middle because of the the miniscus efect of the liquid carrying the lume compound. I have seen old dials where the lume has started to flake and turn to dust like you say. And generaly older dials do look more 3D particualy if they have been relumed at some point.
  5. Bin the girlfriend, or bin the party and bring her with you! Simple
  6. A bit of a bump for berlin come on guys who is coming My self Stephane Plaifender Modelizer
  7. you can always buy with asian and have it swapped for a swiss movement or do the swap your self, it is not that hard, getting a gen dial will be more difficult i think,
  8. That would be a 4813 then but tha ones I have had in my hands were 2813 running at 21600
  9. Not bad I don't think for $98 and €100 in Mods
  10. Have a look at the $98 vintage subs and Seadwellers that Josh is offering I have modded about 5 so far and bang for buck they are well up there. Gen like construction and with a slow beat Asian as standard. Add a gen crown and tube and a few mods and you have a watch not far off modded mbw area and I thing the only thing I would add after I had done my normal mods is a slow beat Swiss movement The only major flaw is that the cases have short stubby crown guards. I have got round this by fitting a gen crown and lowering the crown seat half a mm
  11. Come to an EU GTG you will feel a happy 90 when you leave for home
  12. If it was an eta clone then you should be able to get away with it
  13. A 2893 should swap for a 2836, the stem position is about the same, the 2893 is thiner mainly because of the winding mech, (among other things)
  14. A great gesture Bill, and dont get short changed on those old school TWbest and MBWs even unmodded they are worth a good price!!!
  15. I have my BB on a cusome leather with an ocean racer deplyant
  16. you will need to get it checked to be sure
  17. Moved to the correct area and reported to ebay
  18. it is a swiss large calibre stem wound movement, i done recognise it enough to give it as name, but if you are thinking it is an angulus then i dont think it is, Edit not alarm but twin spring , depending on the movement size it may still make a nice watch movement
  19. how about the mag on this one look at the bevel of the date window And i would say that is a gen i found it here http://rolexblog.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
  20. there are variations but http://doubleredseadweller.com/ is good place to start reaserch
  21. Both times i have done this i have needed taller seconds, min and hour wheels, if any one needs some shorter ones let me know
