ESP should custom make a baby sized KH-1 for him...

Very unlucky, mate. I'm sure Andrew will make things right. Mine doesn't have that problem... but i'm keeping a very close eye on the 2 tiny screws hloding the clasp together.

Got one too... from EL...

1 and 5 gen

Here's a cracker.... I have the same problem... and I always get asked: "Are you in a hurry?" My answer to that question is always: "No... I'm just admiring my watch..." Most times I get a laughing reaction... followed by a conversation about watches and reps. I did get a "what a wierdo" look a couple of times though...

Thinking back... I think it all started when I asked my late grandfather what he was doing when I was a young tot. He was winding his handiwind Omega. Even back then... I was fed up with devices running out of battery (walkmans, watches, hand-held games...etc). When he told me that it doesn't need batteries... i was in awe. I then went to my dad and told him what my grandad told me... then he showed me his auto-wind Rolex and told me that as long as he wears it, he never needs to wind it. You can imagine what was going on in my young brain at the time... it was like this... ...but times a thousand. I've always wanted a mechanical watch ever since. I finally managed to save up and bought myself a genuine Omega SeMP when I was 19. That watch was the bomb... I only wore it out a couple of times. I gotta tell you guys that haven't owned a genuine... there is NOTHING like owning one!! Sadly... I needed some funds as I was planning to live in Asia, so I sold it to a hock shop. I regretted selling it now.. My facination for watches didn't stop there though... I couldn't afford to buy mechanical Swiss watches at the time... so I bought large analouge quartz watches. My sister knew how much I love watches and she bought me a Jag titanium chrono watch that I still have today. The passion for mechanicals started agan when I saw this at a shopping mall in Asia: It was a fantasy Franck Muller with a display back... but I didn't care. It was the best looking of the bunch (the photo speaks for itself) and the fact that it was mechanical and costs peanuts sends endless endorphins to my brain. I stared at the watch in awe that night... I only wore the watch out once... at my sister's wedding. It was a hot night... i was kinda dissapointed when I saw dew forming inside the crystal. I hunted for higher quality reps and found some beauties... I also hunted on the net and found RWG1, bought watches from EL... and here I am today, enjoying high quality replicas that a majority of the public (even some watchsmiths here) doesn't even know they exist. They might know a cheap fake... but not ones that are sold here... till they open the caseback or inspect with a loupe. Not from a distance... not a chance... I hope this post wasn't too long... I don't usually write long posts...

Thank You.... very good info.... I wouldn't have noticed those screws at all... they are now at a constant watch till i can get my hands on some thread-lock.

Looks gen to me.... Sad... I hope he's not selling it to feed his crack habit....

My guess is he got the dial, superlumed hands, crown and canon pinion set from Davidsen. Repaustria fit them together and superlumed the dial.

Same here...

There's no one like him... and never will be again... Rest In Peace, Steve...

Get 'im Alan!

@cheepoguy I can't see the last pic of the genuine Rolex movt... can you fix it?

Get 'im Alan!!

No, Let it run for a few days... then time it again. I think you've achieved it.

He just changed his pics...

One of the photos is actually from a local watchmaker's website...

Yes, I think TTK is referring to this one: http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=10635&hl=

That's very true...

You can get quite accurate with these movt... my 2836 in my sub runs at +1 sec a day

We've talked about this before mate... it's your passion, i'm sure you'll find the time...

Davidsen... you've done it again...

Or get the hands from Davidsen as well... he's got super lumed ones...

Congrats mate!
