I have a mbw 5513 that this is going on. The dial is a meters first which would date the piece late 60's do I am wanting a 700 on it. I am saving my.last 702 crown for when I find an mbw 1665.

Honestly I really was not asking for it's authenticity. I have never seen a rep 700 crown so I really was not worried about that. Just wondering if it was a 700. I guess if it is a rep 700 then that's cool too.

Praetor that looks like a bk box lol what else have you been buying?

Link for auction http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&rt=nc&nma=true&item=180656201576&si=uJdIUtqZuVJcx%252B7WoqAK2w%252Fo6i8%253D&viewitem=&sspagename=ADME%3AL%3ACOSI%3AUS%3A1123

That is what I thought as well but I got the seller off a link here where a member picked up a 702 crown with tube for less.

Praetor, thanks for the link. I just checked the seller and picked up what I think is a 24-700 crown for only 40 bucks.

Just picked this up for 40 bucks. I hope it is a 700 as I have a tube for it and it would look great on a 5513.

While surfing for some parts I ran across what I think is a great deal. It is a complete bezel w/ insert for a 16610. The seller is asking only 200 bucks for the package and rates it at 90% condition. http://forums.timezone.com/index.php?t=tree&goto=5623721&rid=0

You did price the gilt 5513 and I hope that was not a "cheap" price as honestly you were about 58% higher than another 5513 that I am planning on getting. You are free to do as you please and I wish you luck on all your sales........... and also am a little jealous of your stash.

LOL

I would guess somewhere around 60-70 bucks each, . I am interested in the 5512 case!

Thanks for the explanation. Was not self explanitory lol.

It may be a stupid question but what the he'll is WIS?

Got the watch today. It is amazing in person. Ronin can go more into the gmt movement but I think he is out of town at the moment on business. Joe

I can't wait get it and once again cannot thank Ronin enough for coming up with the movement that made the project possible.

Great looking 1675 libby, I do agree.on the jubilees do really set them off!

Sorry I meant 2 million

My journey has finally come to an end! My 1675 is complete and is being sent back to me today. I thought I would post one final thread describing what was used and include pictures. I would like to thank all the members who have offered advice along the way. Without their help and all the great posts on the 1675 projects it would have been more difficult to have completed the watch. I would especially like to thank Ronin for taking what I had ammassed and making it work. If he had not stepped in when he did and offered his assistance, I can honestly say that I may have abonded the project. He was a dream to work with and imho one of the best around. First off the build list: Gen Case serial number 2 mill Original crown, tube, crystal, & back to gen case WMO Bezel Gen faded red backed Pepsi Insert Gen 62510H bracelet Movement built by Ronin Hands supplied and aged by Ronin

I think there is another one one rwi. Don't think it is in eu though. Good luck with your search. The ssd is a great piece. I have a gen insert crown tube and bk dw overlay. I am installing on mine along with transplanting some maxi markers to make the dial correct. Gonna have it superlumed and it will be sweet.

Here is the watch being sold. It was purchased.from pt. Hands down the best sad and it has an eta 2836-2. I have one all ready that I am modding. http://www.1-pc8838.com/rlsd00089-super-dweller-black-asian-3135-p-7921.html You need to click on link twice to open the watch and not the main page. Meant ssd not sad.

Thom, If you are indeed looking for a super sea dweller and not the newer deep sea it has been discontinued. The best place to find one is in the member sales. They are great reps and I was looking for almost a year till I found one to replace the one I had sold. There is one for sale in RG that is a great deal on an awesome watch. http://repgeek.com/showthread.php?t=132876 Good luck on the search. Joe

lol on the censor. I did not know that is how the markers were attached and for some reason I had a notion that they were just painted on. Now I need to find a cheap watch or dial that has the maxi markers to transplant. Thanks

Pardon my ignorance, but what do you mean transplant them?

I have a stock SSD V2 that I am looking to replace the dial on. I like the dial it has now but I am looking for a maxi one. All the replacment dials I find that are maxi are for 16660. I would love to change to a tritium 16660 but the xtal has the crown and what I have found out is that you cannot replace the xtal on these watches. I currently have a gen lumi insert, 703 crown, and bk dw overlay. I just thought I would check here about a maxi dial before I give up and stick with the one I have.

The Zigmeister did an amazing job on the dial can't even tell it is the same one. I was going to use the 75b but supplier sent the wrong movement and I had to get a refund. I to wanted to use gen date wheel and gmt hand but in the end had to give up on that. Here are some pics for my build. Good luck with your build. It is worth it.
