  1. Wonder what the experts think of this model ? I plan to mod a 16660 from it.
  2. Hello, I wonder how do you proceed to drill holes in a 16600 sea dweller case to transform it into a 16660 case ? I mean which kind of tool are you suppose to use to drill from the inside lug of the case ? and has pictures talk best : from here to here
  3. What is this model ? And wonder where do you get it… looks stunning !
  4. Now tell me, where is the rep of this black explorer II beauty (with the blue lume, the cool hands, the gridlock bracelet…) :bounce: Guess we will have to wait a little year before it pops out !
  5. Hello, I need some help ! I am trying to unscrew the 2 screws that hold the movement holder in place on my seamaster 300 but the screws are a little bit under the case. Anyone knows how to this ? I have tried to unscrew them but they are blocked at a point with the step of the case. Any would help would be much appreciate

  12. I start modded my DRSD and drill 1.2mm holes to fit the correct springbars. But I realize when I wanted to put them back on my case (and bracelet) that I need to mod the bracelet too… But I wonder if anyone could enlight me about the bracelet mod ? I already messed up an end link so any advice is welcome or old tutorial (that I didn't find). Thanks in advance.
  13. About 3 weeks ago I bumped into the Milgauss at a Rolex corner. It was displayed in front of the store. I wasn't into Rolex for a long time since I joined the rep world 2 years ago. The reputation floating around the brand wasn't my way of seeing thing. But I started to look at the buzz around the vintage models and finally felt for some models. I then turn my devotion toward the explorer I. The redesigned one looked nice but I wasn't quiet sure… But when I saw the new Milgauss I get the well known childish feeling "I want this !" So I looked around and order one from PWC. Honestly, I tried the Milgauss at the Rolex corner and when I received my watch I really wonder why I would bother spending 5000€ (except for the movement… maybe) if you can get almost the same quality from the outside with a 100€ model… Everything is here the shape of the case is really nice. The crown is well done. The crystal is sapphire. The dial is stunning. OK, the markers are not made of white gold but a silvery material. But honestly, who care to have the markers of his watch made of white gold ? According to the Milgauss manual the glass is supposed to be engraved with a crown at 6 o'clock. There isn't one on the rep. But I couldn't find a pic of a gen on the net that has this feature. And neither did the one from the Rolex shop that I saw… The bracelet is supernice and has the Gridlock system. The watch screams for quality and the thickness and the weight is much more enjoyable than my Deepsea (that I guess I am going to sell…). The shiny/brushed bracelet was a little awkward and too much at first but after 2 days I am totally used to it. The claps the Gridlock The antimagnetic cover Lume with 5 sec. UV lamp Expose at the sun light It misses a shoot of the back… But it looks exactly the same as this gen (same font, same weigth) : And after some sealing grease treatment it is now waterproof (didn't bother to tests it when I received it) and ready to go swimming
  14. Looking to identify this watch. I know that there is not much to see but wonder if it might be the bracelet of a IWC Slevin ?
