It's coming along nicely, but still has a little ways to go. Special thanks to my friends Ubiquitous and highoeyazmuhudee.

If it fits the 16600, I'd love to buy it off you.

I thought PT's Supreme 16610 only came with rehaut engraving?

freddy, That is one FINE looking watch!

Perhaps I could wear that watch, but with the way bigger watches have moved the current style, I don't think I'd personally try too hard to set a new trend. Like someone mentioned above, if you are a smaller guy, it's much easier to pull the vintage look off, but any guy with bigger arms will look a little funny wearing the watch pictured (IMO) right now. However, to each his own as this is just my opinion.

This looks ridiculous. I'd feel like I was wearing my wife's watch.

Any idea why I can't send PMs?

I can't send PMs. Anyone else having this problem?

I asked BK about this very issue and he told me there were no options for replacement crystal.

I saw U2 on the 14 of October last year. Awesome show and nice looking watch!

Nice job as usual, Ubi! I look forward to seeing your next masterpiece.

You are one lucky man! Btw, I'll need a copy of that photo in 4'x6' and that is feet!

Here is a post gioarmani did on repgeek: http://repgeek.com/showthread.php?t=75328&highlight=jackjo+ssd I just picked up a Jackjo SSD and it fits me fine and we have about the same wrist size. Not too big at all. I prefer the wrist presence over the Sub.

gioarmani, What is the item that you use to polish the bracelet with? The link doesn't work anymore. Btw, who is the woman in your avatar?! She's smokin'! Thanks, UT Horn

Here you go (about 3/4 down): http://www.ofrei.com/page_151.html

That's a cool looking version of the 1665. What did you do with the MBW hands that came on the watch? Are Clark's and WO better than the originals? I tried to get a Clarks T-19 crystal on my MBW and it too cracked. Bummer. I've got a Gen T 39 non-superdome coming in thanks to a good friend on the board and fully expect this to improve the watch greatly.

Here's a picture with a real camera. I really like the blueish grey color the insert gets when faded.

You got a nice effect from the chlorine. I wish I would have thought of that and saved myself some time.

I just did one yesterday. It was a MBW insert that took longer than a Yuki I did before. It took ~45 minutes to fade where I wanted it. A good tip that was mentioned above was to agitate the water and take it out so you can see what is really happening. Once the color starts to go, it fades fast. Here's a pic of my MBW 1665 GW I took with my iPhone. Sorry for the resolution. Here's how it started:

Beautiful watch, Ubi! You've got some really nice ones that set the standard.

I love to see such a beautiful watch like that with great wear marks. This baby didn't just sit in a box.

Narikka did get me my 1665, but I don't know what kind of luck he has getting parts.

At least in a crap shoot you have a chance of winning. I wouldn't buy from Eurotimez at all under any conditions. There are a lot of guys that are out money because Eurotimez decided to just stop responding to emails.

I hear what you are saying, but I paid extra $ to have the watch gaskets siliconed and to have the watch tested for waterproofness. I was told it tested ok to 3 bars. I bought the watch from Narikka and he's always shot straight with me, so I assumed the information was good. I now need to get the watch looked over by someone local to ensure this doesn't happen again.

Andy, Your trick appears to have worked for my watch. At this time it's running smoothly and there is no moisture in the watch anymore. Thanks for the help! Now to figure out what went wrong...
