  1. I want to see the sweep of the 21j subs before I get one....I can't picture it and I am afraid I will hate it if I buy one...I love everything else about the noob sub and I know what I need to change to make it even closer to gen I just don't know if I would hate the 21j. PLease if anyone has one of these watches could you please let me see a vid of the sweep....please?
  2. I was wondering if you are in Newfoundland....if so are you in the Trinity Bay area? You can let me know via PM if you would like.
  3. My bezel makes a ton of noise when turing...it moves smoothly but you can really hear each "click" anyone know ow to pull it apart and make it quieter?
  4. I am looking for a 19 mm folded bracelet for my gen Air king. Mine is way stretched anyone know where I can find one?
  5. I am not really worried anymore I pulled out my gen air king and it makes even more noise than my dssd and I had it serviced last year!
  6. I wanted to start things off again on the right foot...here are some pics of my GEN Rolex Air King Date. I got tis watch from my Grandfather and this is the watch that has started my Rolex obsession. It is a rare model, an Air King Date TT on a very stretched SS band, I would like to replace the band or have ot repaired. I love the rest of the look, the slightly scratched crystal and the aged case. On to the pics
  7. I understand I just wish I had someone close to me that had the tools to remove the back....damn those rolex designers and their strange casebacks. I have been contacted by a guy from here who has a guy in a town not far from me so I will give him a try
  8. I can't get the caseback off the watch it has nothing to do with getting my watch out in public. I called around in my city to see if I could fine someone to open my watch for me. There were only two watchmakers in the city I called them both from my cellphone and asked right up front if they could help with a rep watch.I was worried that the rotor was touching the caseback and that I might damage the movement. I was up front with the repair guy and the store is a dedicated watch reapir store. I was only worried that he changed his mind about working on a rep and that he was blowing me off. I am still worried about damage but really I can't the back off not even with the tape ball. I learned my lesson about rep in the gen world I would never even dream of calling an AD.
  9. took my watch to the watchmakers in my local mall, I took it in because it was noisy when I put it to my ear and I was worried about the rotor coming loose. The guy puts it too his ear ans shakes it and says it is normal. I asked him to remove the caseback and make sure but he refused saying that it would compromise my waterproofing. Is this normal? Did the guy think my watch was a gen. I was open with his son when I wqas calling around to watchmakers.I hadn't told the father anything about the watch he just looked at it shook it and told me not to worry but if he opened the watch it would undermine my waterproofing. Does this sound ok to you guys?
  10. looking for a rep friendly watchmaker in the hamilton area...any ontario folks know of any?
  11. when I shake my watch on my wrist or take it off and give it a wiggle I can hear the winder inside...is this normal or do I need to take the back off to tighten the weight? Any help would be much appresiated
  12. I will be donating as soon as my credit card payment goes through lol
  13. thanx lani I plan to stay as long as I am welome.....but it means alot to hear it man thanx
  14. It was pretty dumb I admit I just wanted to see how the rep would fair. I am sorry people it won't happen again. As it is I will most likely be banned from there anyway. I am trying to do the quick shuffle and then shut the hell up for a while. Man I really should think from time to time...again I am sorry!
  15. I owe you Lani you helped me get it...I just hope the replacement two piece back fits alright.
  16. I just got my new Deep sea sea dweller in the mail from Josh.....except for the one piece caseback...which Josh has already addressed like a professional I might add..I am blown away by this watch. I have been studying the Deep Sea for a few months now and I can't believe the quality of this watch! here are some pics I took tonight. I m sorry for the crap nature of them as I am no photographer, but please enjoy! a few of the face. look at the finish on the case! this one is my background some shots of the clasp again look at the finish on the bracelet and case crown
  17. I just got a v3 with the solid case back Josh told me that the factory is out of stock on the two piece but when he gets them in he will send me one....he has been great so far. I hope that they get some soon
  18. I just got my v3 dssd with the clone eta and the case back is solid..I am a bit [censored] any one else get the same deal? I am waiting to see what the dealer does fro me as he has been great this far. Let me know please if this has happened to anyone else? How did the dealer fix your situation?
  19. welcome what part of Canada are you from?
  20. wow it can happen so fast....I am so sorry for you..My thoughts are with the families

  22. this is not just another who has the best sub question. I am wondering what is the most accurate rolex rep out of the box on the market right now, is it the milguass, daytona, dssd...etc I am interested to know what the top rolex guys think as I am about to embark on my first rolex rep and I would like the input, and yes i have searched the forums but the answers I found are way out of date. Thanx everyone
