They look good quality - nicely done if they're your first attempts!
-
Nice, good to see the options out there
I love the Ray ones, they're awesome!
-
Very nice
What were you shooting on?
I'm guessing you added the vignetting in afterwards?!

Every forum has a different feel - I like this place, it's not full of irrelevant chatter that you have to wade through to get to the good stuff
The knowledge base on here is incredible! (bordering on the obsessive
)

Dials are in the oven at 500 Fahrenheit for 90 minutes?!
Looks pretty good now though
Personally I'd be tempted to round of the case edges a bit but that is more time and effort... lol -
Ok, so it looks like it could be Chief (obviously
), mbjoer, chronus, zesh, PeteM and myself (with girlfriend, probably)?Anyone else?
Time is against us if we want to sort something out for definite!!

Rolex calling something simple by a fancy name, just to make more money?
Surely not...

My laser thing is on from half 4 but I would need to be heading out of town about half 3, so if some morning GTG was arranged that would be cool
It's a rare occasion that we have a GTG over here so I hope we can sort something out!

I believe Mary (watchinternational) might also be able to source jewellery - drop her an email and see

All the dealers have access to the same markets and same watches, what you are paying different amounts for is their quality of service and profit margin.
Pick your dealer from the reviews and then pick your watch!

It is an amazing project, pretty much along the same lines as the Millau Viaduct

Both are awesome, inspirational pieces of engineering and architecture - sometimes you just gotta do something bonkers to inspire people and remind them that we are actually pretty damn awesome as a race, when we put our minds to it and stop arguing amongst each other

Banned on Homage Forum and RGW1.1 already... lol

Nice
I want your set up
lol -
I thought the 02 was pretty good for the DW, nowhere near as bad as some! lol
-
Both look nice
Get a video up of the sweep on the B&R if you can when it arrives!

Pics of the gens or it didn't happen

Bugger, I may just have signed up to help a friend with a laser do a music video during the day of 24th... In a strip club, but sadly not with any girls...
lolIf someone can nail down times, I will see if I'm around

Hmm... I'm intrigued that Mary says it's not available with 2836!
The 4813 is still an alright movement but it's not a 2836
Have you thought about going up to an 01-92? They're not really that much bigger...
-
Damn you!!
They are pretty much a great combo - now all you need is something between them!
Don't Tokina do a 16-50mm f2.8?

Wise words

"Do you know if all DJ cases had drilled lug holes? I too am looking for a DJ gen case as mine is a Sh!tinerand case with no drilled lug holes and a modified fake caseback. Not sure which case number goes with the DJ though."
Acrylic crystal steel and tutone DJs had holes...slowset and QS. Some solid gold acrylic QS models have solid lugs...I had an 18k 16018 a few years ago with no holes.
Early 16200 etc sapphire DJ (starting 1986/1987) had holes and later models do not, so sapphire DJ with or without holes is correct. No need to worry with the serial number if you use a bracelet on a replica case.
Do not know the exact date when the holes went away, probably around 1997 or so.
From TRF...
"sapphire model no hole case. the serial number is "U" and would make it a 1997"
You are a mine of information, sir
I've been looking for a good linen dial for ages - I was gutted, I missed one on ebay that went for

He (she?) seems to be good to some of the guys on HomageForum, with decent prices for parts and quick delivery times.
I think the general consensus is there's still a lot of 'crap' on the sites for Jo Public who has no idea, but that they are providing some decent quality stuff too.
That's just what I've read though, I've not ordered personally!
What a bad night

It's kids like yours that grow up to do great things - it's the kids that sit indoors all day that grow up with no motivation for life and no sense of adventure!!
