That's not a conflict of interest. If there is ever a dispute, let the other mods mod it. Done Seriously, business is business. We should be hearing more about your wares.

We will find out by Sep-16-06 12:04:28 PDT

What other options are there? How close are the modern genuine inserts without the pearl?

ofrei.com has lots of goodies

You guys are making me very jealous.. I wish I had someone to talk watches with!

So you admit to using trick balls?

Ubi is such a tease

The only thing that goes better with coke than pizza is strippers!

I should also say when wearing it in an AD, I always only let it peak out from beneath my shirt cuff. I want them to get a glimpse of it but I'm not looking to let them pick it apart Good luck with your search!

The existing plating has been fine so far and with it being a dress watch, I do not expect any problems. However, to me and from what it sounds like with your brother, it would probably be worth the extra expense to get more gold put on for peace of mind when meeting with clientele. I've never been called out on it and have made good friends with my local Patek AD (how I got the buckle, strap, selvyt cloth, Patek magazines etc). I think the quality is nice but keep in mind I have put a lot of money into it and without it being solid gold, it is not heavy like a genuine. So I would never take it off, of course. That is about all I feel comfortable saying because I am about to be forced to sell it and I do not want to seem as a cheerleader trying to sell my watch.

I'm not sure what the problem is but I think the other part that might be causing the problem would be the crown tube.

Would parts of this pic help for the roman numerals?

Silix-Prime has what you need here: http://www.silix-prime.com/product.asp?id=1502 Just be very, very patient. They are running RFC 1149 and it takes a very long time for their website to load.

You bring me 5 or no deal!

OEM 14mm 18K YG Patek Buckles are $475

In that case, bring me 5 PAMs.. I will find buyers

Unfortunately, there are not many good Patek options available. In the end, I went with EL's Patek 3919 and put an OEM strap and buckle on it. It looks beautiful but it still needs anti-reflective caoating on the underside of the crystal and some nice and thick gold plating.

A thread would be very nice so we could point all the future questions to it Beautiful work, btw.

Didn't Amazon.com start a new program to take pictures of street addresses?

Compare the two pictures of their movements to see the difference.

Friday is here. Bump and upgrade

Google was not aware of any PDFs on cartier.com and looking through all the PDFs that mentioned Santos on richemont.com did not yield anything useful. Except for this: press.office@richemont.com Who is in a position to contact Richemont directly and request some PDF press releases?

Don't knock that flat 39. That looks NICE!

Vintage 16610LV, huh?
