  1. I was thinking the same thing about your sign photo F. keep up the good work mate Oh...and that goes for you too Mickey
  2. I would return it since the silver/grey dial does not exist in this model,more of a fantasy dial. As for the PC speaker... well i am sure many members in here would have a story or two to share BTW both watches look good on you wrist mate
  3. Top notch Daytona built by a top notch member Just gorgeous mate Post some more pics if you can for us
  4. Revue Thommen 1000ft diver for me this weekend
  5. Sorry Am but i sold my lot back in April Also OSrep has already sold his mvt But you can get day/date wheels from http://www.cousinsuk.com/catalog.aspx?did=4&pcatid=75&catid=328 for 3.50GBP/DAY WHEEL and 7.50/DATE WHEEL As for the gen parts i have never tried to install anything else but in my opinion they should fit since the Gen's base movement is the ETA 7750. But have in mind that you will need to modify the hour/minute/main chrono hand in order to fit the GEN ETA 7750 or the GEN 79320,no worries there though Domenico has done that way too many times!!!
  6. Yes Niklas is concepta, he is dealing with some personal problems as we speak and i am not sure if he will be able to help you at the moment,but you can try and shoot him a pm.I wasn't aware that gen movement are sold out If this fails you can always try and get a gen ETA 7750 from Cousins.Swapping movements is not a cosmeticaly thing,slevin has indeed a close caseback,but it is a matter of performance and reliability.I have tried all three movements in my 3789 (A7750,ETA 7750 and IWC 3789) and trust me when i say that it makes a difference.ETA movement is a lot smoother also.As a matter if fact i had a gen 7750 kept for builting a Slevin but i have up that project for another and sold the movement to Namor. As for the lume, it is one of the most important upgrades on the Slevin.The reason i mentioned Z is because he is an expert on reluming a Slevin inner bezel but i have no doubts that Domenico will be as good as Z.Domenico has re lumed my 3789 and his job is great.He can also provide AR services so if i were you i would shoot him a pm and ask him about that. Slevin is a great watch,i was on the way of builting one for my self as well and it really deserves those upgrades!!! Oh and regarding the day-date wheels, yes you are right i would swap them too with gen eta.I had bought 2 pairs (black/white and white/black) from Cousins for a good price.
  7. The YM bezel is also made of platinum as well and since this is a ROLEX regardless the quantity of this precious metal used what you pay are the marketing costs and the brand name.But this is a long long story!!! And i agree that this kind of price difference in two years time is kinda strange.
  8. I would definitely replace the A7750 with a gen 79320 from Niklas and also get the inner bezel lumed by Zig (along with the dial and hands of course) This is one great watch you got there btw Am may you wear it in good health and enjoy the best out of it my friend John
  9. Wow!!! all the things we didn't know about fake Rolex watches 1. Rolex watches are fitted with a sapphire crystal (the glass face of the watch) that can only be scratched with a diamond. 6. If you remove a Rolex bracelet you should find the watch’s case number and model number engraved on the side at six o’clock and 12 o’clock . 4. The genuine Rolex movement sweeps smoothly round at about 28,800 revs per hour – each second is broken down into eight steps. Even when a fake uses a Swiss-made movement, the second hand’s ticking is usually visibly jerky. So i guess my old school noob 16570 must be a gen according to these statements!!! The left one could have fooled me though...sels are so nicely done I really love articles like this one!!! Thanks for sharing L
  10. +1000 And with 100% genuine WIS guys One of the...nope :bangin: ...THE best online community source for knowledge and expertise in watches Welcome mate
  11. Sorry to hear that Niklas,our thoughts are with you at such difficult times my friend. We can only pray for the best... J
  12. Welcome to the TG franken club Daytona Although mine has only a gen movement,it has been relumed and modified by Domenico as well Wear it well my friend
  13. An awful rep for sure,nice catch there patinga
  14. SC this is a 3789, the 10 pusher is on the 3799 double chrono,which of course cannot be replicated. And IMHO this is a V2 just like peyups said.Colour on the TOP GUN logo is not gen like and the crown is to gray and bigger in size.I know cause i got a gen movement powered V2 franken. J
  15. Got it!!! Mille Grazie Niko and Domi!!! Ho alcuni progetti per te amico mio, vi far
  16. Just came in , a brand new gen Revue Thommen SS bracelet This thing is HUGE with the bracelet and super ultra heavy piece of metal Here it is with the standard rubber strap, which btw feels great on the wrist And now with the SS heavy metal bracelet Hope you like it John
  17. IMHO nothing beats CT's AR Had my ex Breitling's crystal treated with CT AR...it makes the crystal invisible Like D said, it worths the wait. John
