Let me ask, what Rolex crystal did you use? Did it fit tight to the lip on the case pictured? Did you press the retainer to seal the crystal? Did the bezel snap on the retainer using the wire spring? Mine pictured is the V1, and does none of that. If they've made it right, we have a whole new route for coin edge vintage Rolex. retainer, bezel with wire spring

Oh, ΩΘΠ.

The ΔΤΧ or the ΩΘΠ?

Is the 'Tiger' case a gen style mount of the crystal and bezel retainer? Mine from a couple of years ago was the 'cartel' style with a groove for the crystal that had to be glued in. Is that a new design? I took the coin edge bezel and mounted on one of those rubber sanding drums for a drill. Spun it a few times to get it seated straight, and using my drill press, used emery cloth mounted on a popsicle stick and slightly beveled the edges, top and bottom. You can sorta see it in the pic. The GMT is more beveled than the Submariner.

Talk to Gary Clark. He makes his crystals.

Well done!

You could post my quote from two replies ago, but you won't. It doesn't satisfy your agenda. I can and will post what I like, thank you, and regardless of your suggestions. Yep, my PM box has been quite busy with the smart members here, and I appreciate their support in my replies to the "idiocy".

No, I didn't know you were banned, and evidently, not banned all that much. I expressed my opinion when it happened, many pages ago, and it's still there. Why are you trying to change the subject?

As I recall you made much the same fuss about an Admin here who did post rep pics on a gen site. MD2020's facebook issue was addressed at the time posted in this thread, and Mike himself explained it. It was not as he was accused.

Obviously quite a few care. L8terz expressed his opinion quite clearly. I do not believe he appointed you his interpretor. More name calling and attacks on fellow RWG members? Says a lot about you.

No. If those who attacked a fellow RWG member for simply stating his opinion, cussed him out, called him names, and those who threatened, those who lied to the RWG members wish to apologize to the RWG member and membership, fine. If they choose to run away, that's fine too. I won't.

I'd hope to be "unpleasant" with those who attack fellow RWG members, who cuss out fellow RWG members, who name call RWG members, those who threaten fellow RWG members, and those who lie to RWG members. I look back on my replies and the immaturity I see are those attacks, cussing, name calling, threats and insults, and those defending those actions.

You think me "arrogant" because I object to a fellow RWG member being attacked and cussed out simply for expressing his opinion? You think it's right for someone to call that RWG member an "idiot"? You support someone who has lied several times to all the RWG membership in this thread? I see several newbie trolls here who insult RWG members.

You've lied several times in the past two days in this thread, and refuse to address your lies at all. Guys, we have a newbie troll here who lies to us. Make note of it.

I didn't say you posted that at all, I don't know what you posted in the private PM group, I wouldn't go there. I posted the status of your repair. If you have not seen the two emails, maybe check your spam file. They were sent, and your movemnent will be shipped early next week. Yes, 'MOAB' lied. I didn't.

Can you read? I didn't miss a thing. You have.

You don't seem to grasp shipping times too well. But then, while this thread does seem to be more embellishment than facts, I have to wonder why someone would send their watches half way around the globe with so many watch repair people in Oz. Then complain about the time it takes to finish the job. And start a thread to pile on the watch repair guy. This whole thing reeks of B.S.

So, you support RWG members attacking fellow RWG members? You condone RWG members cussing out, name calling and/or threatening another member here? I do not support nor condone such things. Even with someone like you. Can you read? I posted the truth and challenged the lies. You ignored the lies, ignored the name calling, ignored the cussing, ignored the threats and attacked me. Says a lot about you.

It has nothing to do with me being "great", or the "best". It has to do with treating your fellow RWG members right. You've not learned that, so no, I'm not "happy". You still think your fellow RWG members are "know it alls", and none said they were smart or not. Except you.

I already know. ALL RWG members matter. I read your posts to L8terz. That was nonsense.

sgtguk - 3 pieces - all 3 pieces have been with JMB for a week now, with the owner's direction and full knowledge. Tonyyammine - 1 piece, several ingod watch parts - The watch would be finished with the proper second hand needing a longer pinion tube. Sourcing the hand has been the issue, all with the owner's knowledge. Billyfras - 1 piece - The 7753 movement has a broken pinion. Sourcing the pinion is the issue, all with the owner's knowledge. Devilseam - 1 piece - Mike is still waiting for the insert from the owner to be installed. tomhorn - 1 2846 movement - Two emails sent in the past week, the movement should be shipped early next week. Mike on a bike - no watches or movements or projects with MD2020 So, by his own announcement, Mike on a bike won't participate in the multi PM. And Mike on a bike, you still have not addressed your fabricated B.S. lie about Mike/MD2020.

I didn't misread anything. It looks as though you have misread what I said. You can paraphrase all you like, that's not a quote, and not what L8terz said. I said, as a member of RWG, L8terz has every right to express his opinion on any thread on any subject, as we all do, without being attacked, cussed out, called names and/or threatened. I also said that those RWG members who have come to Mike/MD2020's defense have been attacked. So, after another member went into a vulgarity laced tirade, one that absolutely breaks the rules of this site, and a tirade that was completely out of line in several posts complete with false bravado, and came back and apologized for that rant, YOU called L8terz and "idiot". Rather than chastise the attacker, rather than address the foul-mouthed rant, rather than condemn the cyber-testosterone muscle flexing, you instead said, and I quote - not paraphrase - "Arguing with an idiot is pointless". Now, if you think that name calling a fellow RWG member is defending another member who actually did the attacking and rule-breaking foul-mouthed tirade, then yes, we do have a strong disagreement. I also addressed another poster who had posted some fabricated lying B.S. in regards to "missing watches". I say again, refuting the lie that was ignored 4 times by the poster who wrote it, NO RWG member is missing a single watch with Mike/MD2020. You failed to address that lie as well, instead addressing me. I read your claims, then read your posts, and they don't match up. While you're not the only one, you did pursue it with me. And I will answer. I hope that clarifies what I said, even though what I said is still all there in black and white and clear when originally posted.

Good for you. This is RWG and this is the RWG message board. All member's opinions should be welcomed. Not attacked for their views or position on a subject. Not called names or cussed out. No RWG member's property is in jeopardy with Mike/MD2020, and repair progress reports are not necessary in any thread here.

I don't agree with your assessment. Nor do I take orders from you. If you approve of members attacking other members, threatening and name calling, and attacking and name calling those who offer an opposing view, then I'd suggest you stop posting. It seems that was your face you saw.

And? You demonstrate you can't read. fraggle's name calling had nothing to do with Mike. You still haven't addressed your fabricated B.S. about Mike. If you're supposed to be a 'friend' of Mike/MD2020, he doesn't need any more enemies.
