  1. You are killing me with those pictures, did the WSD came with a super dome and fat font insert at all? Thanks
  2. I hear you, there is nothing like old school GMT, I am trying to finish this one
  3. looks cool anyway, one of a kind watch if you ask me; only a wis will know is fake
  4. I used double tape work well. you still need to be careful because the dial will move.
  5. That;'s one cute Baby.
  6. What are advantage of having a V72 or 727 opposed top 7750 or whatever is used on the rep' besides the subdial position of course. Thanks
  7. I still would like to know more about the movement. Cheers
  8. so is a Rolex rep then??? could it be one of those magnificent GMT with real GMT movement.
  9. Which movement is that one; I am thking on buying a 2893-2 GMT, what you have look to be a better solution. nice build congrats cheers
  10. Frank, Do you mind telling what is need it? maybe you should sell me your GMT and call it a day.
  11. Well in that case is not something i can do myself. I am sure Rob should be able to do this; the question will he do it. this is getting out of hands. thanks
  12. so the eta movement will fit the asian 1655? Please I need to know ASAP so i can buy the mt movement.
  13. is the DG movement not sure what model, I wonder if he can source me just the case I do not want to buy another watch to finish otherwise I will have to ditch the project and let someone else deal with it.
  14. Thanks Andy. I guess is possible then to put a 2893 in a josh 1655 case that came with an asian movement? probably will need a new movement ring!
  15. Actually is not a bad idea. I will ask him and see what he has to say. what I am doing is turning his 1655 into a 1675, some guys have done that already here, there is no accurate base for a 1675 other than going from 1655 to 1675. I have a gen dial and the watch I purchased from Josh has an asian movement not very realiable but for 140 dollars what esle can I expect. If I use a true GMT movement the watch build will get close to $900 which is not that expensive considering that for $3000 i can get a decent Gen 1675. Ivan
  16. I hear you and that is why I ask, so not oll ETA have the stem in the same position, this new Josh 1655 it supposed to be made from a genuine and it can take gen parts. but I can not tell for sure. Thanks
  17. what about a 2893-2 real GMT this will also fit or should I be concern of the stem position? thanks
  18. I faded the insert. I think looks great.
  19. that is what i am trying to do but where do I get one. Do you have a source. Thanks
  20. I am thinking in buying a modified ETA GMT, so i will be using the asian date-wheel overlay Thanks
  21. I was wondering if the 2893-2 or 2846-2 ETA modified GMT movement will 1655 josh's case that came with an Asian movement. any takers? Thanks
  22. I am with you bro, last night I was removing the 1655 gmt hand from the asian movement and the whole gmt wheel came off, I should order an ETA but I was going to switch the movement and try to use a gen date-wheel. here is dial before restoration this is after The Zigmeister's magic
  23. I sanded and now it fits, but I would to have a kind prefect fit where no sanding is need it. besides i cracked a little bit when on the side maybe i pushed too hard. by the way i have the dial back from The Zigmeister I am still waiting on the Mercedes hands and still need a GMT hand. any ideas. I was gong to use a zodiac 75b but is impossible to get one at least for a good price,
  24. Do you mind telling me how you faded the insert? I have a WSO insert put in bleach and pool chlorine but it looks the same no fading at all. thanks
