Hi! ofrei sells the datewheels. You can glue to the eta datewheel. Thats why ubi said in a previous post. Ubi is a big asset for this community. Can you tell us something about the spacer ring? btw, when are you going to source an El Primero movement? I am waiting Joe to finish a 16200 silver datejust. Hope he gets well Regards, Manuel

get well soon my friend! Thanks for the update.

well manuel is my real name, i am from spain, there are plenty of manuel guys in all southamerica, but we spanish were first. you may have heard the name manolo from mexican mobs... well thats manuel too, but thats for family and friends and you´d better say manuel instead of manolo, some people get offended...

Joe is awesome! How long did it take?

bienvenuti a la cosa nostra mahler, io non sono il consigliere della web, Ma tu non conosci il nostro negozio.

Hi Randy, I can source in madrid golden eta 2836-2, with tissot engraved on the rotor. They are priced at 90 euros. Yours isn´t 2836-2. yours is 21 jewels. Would that helps to slow the beat frecuency for vintage models?

Nice to hear that, joe let me know if you can do that with the silver datejust dial. But only when you´ll be better and fully recovered Regards,

jdmdohcpower, you couldn´t be more satisfied...By-Tor has come through asking your answers.

I agree.

i am not an expert, but i am told the font is serif, what about this? to be honest, I dont like the color either. BTW, If i were you, i´d replace the crystal. The crown is a lot big, and i am not sure about the date magnification, but i think it never should be as bigger as this, Regards, Manuel

sure. they may be have somebody doing some research, but i dont know how that research is being performed. However, we all have been recommend not to post reps in forums like t*m*zone or the pu*ists. Sometimes people get angry when they realise how close is the watch compared to a rep, so obviously they call for some action and punishment. These forums are just part of a big iceberg which is a very lucrative business itself, (replica factories, asian based)... So if they want to take action against this forum they should known that it wont stop the business, and people will keep buying reps. This forum is some kind of review site or rep comparision and is runned by normal people, not a company, so its difficult. I think watch companies should give thanks to these forums, they cant stop the business but at least people wont damage the brand by wearing stupid replicas, because people will still buy reps whetever this forum or other exists. And the watches brands know that a rep owner will probably be a customer one day.

wow dutchy you´re a lucky boy! wear it well! and be careful when you´ll wear that watch, didn´t you say that you are in venezuela now? it may be a little dangerous then.. regards, Manuel

thanks pugwash. very lovely cats yours, its a shame i didn´t come up with the idea of feeding them, at first i tought that the mum was bringing the kittens just to show us. Now i understand that she was looking us to take care of them. Now she is meowing all the time....but she wont find the kittens becuase i took them and put into a box. I´ll have to bury them. its very sad because we know the mum since she was very small and we are feeding her since that, she was ill and thanks to me and my family the cat survived. She still seems to be pretty young, so maybe she hadn´t milk to offered. However is pain is genuine and suffers like other old cat. I ´ll know what to do next time. I also read yesterterday that there was a way of resurrecting them if they were put in a warm place, so I hold the dead kittens with my hands during an hour but no luck. Call me weird for doing that but i love animals and wanted to save them. Here is one of the kittens with her mum, still alive. Its very small. So next time i´ll now what to do. it was very rare that the mom would brought to us the cats when they were only 1 or 2 days old. I´ve should have known. Thanks for your apologies.

wow what an investment!! I dont know whats stoping me from dong that. Doesnt mbw cases come with pollex engraving or something like that? I also heard that they dont have serial number.. I think the buyer will realise after buying it. This is a completly scam.

yes thats sad. I whish I should have known this before. Now i know that the mother brought them when they were alive just to see if we would take care of their babies.

@chronus: no i am not living there, i am living in madrid, capital city of spain. I have family in Canary islands. But now they are nor longines dealers anymore. watches didnt sold as well as they should because of the hindu jewellers wich lowered the prices to illegal minimums, despite the brands didn´t allow that. nasty business. Now i am sad to tell you this: the cat mom is wild, so i have no control over her nor her kittens. I didn´t want to interfere either. I told you in the last post that i havent seen the cats this afternoon. Well, after watching some late tv i checked the place where cats should be and i found the mother desolated. Two kittens dead, the other one is missing. She has brought the kittens to me and my family. I think she wanted me to save her kittens or she wanted me to resurrect them. Pretty sad. Of course i am not going to take pictures, that is sick minded. the mother is very young, she is one year old, but cats have kittens very young... i dont think the mom is bad...just inexpert. I putted some milk on a glass for her and i hope she will feel better. The loss of her sons its very hard. She even allowed me to touch her wich is very very rare. I know she is very sad. I am sad too. However i learnt something important today: life comes and life goes. No matter how and when. I think buddhist people have a better understanding about this, i hope these kittens will reincarnate in some way but with better conditions. I firmly believe in karma so i´ll hope that when i´ll be dead i wont have to come back to the earth because life is hard despite you are living like a king, but pain and suffering is still there...in your state, in your country.. well sorry for this bla bla and for the unfinished style but i am sad and i am gonna see the sad mom. regads, Manuel

i like the ss bezel more than the black bezel. Let the black bezel for other sport models. Nice

yes the cat is lovely. the mother may have hidden their babies because i dont see them now. The watch is quartz and it kills me. perhaps if it were automatic i ´d be more enthusiastic. its just a gold watch. there are plenty of more cool watches out there. regards

yesterday i shaw the transporte 2 movie. The good guy wears a penarai 196 which beeps, the bad guy wears a gold president.

In loving memory of the kittens: this kitten is in heaven as well as their two brothers. I want to remember them alive as a precious gift and tell people to be good with pets and animals and not to be cruel. my family and I have been feeding 4 wild cats, two of them are female cats, so sooner or later they would get pregnant and so it happened. and guess what? Yesterday the cat arrived with their 3 little baby cats! all of them are as small as rats and dont even have their eyes open. I know this is a watch related forum, so i will post watch pictures. The gold watch pictured is a longinez quartz bought to a family member when she was authorised longines dealer, (canary islands). I was told that i will inherit the watch.

what happened to the bezel´s numbers? It seems that the black has faded away, which gives the feeling of total vintage watch...congratulations

yes, stuff gets stolen everywhere. You say you are living in venezuela, are you living in one of those residential areas with armed guards protected and all that stuff? only rich people in venezuela (well southamerica) can afford that, here in europe we dont need such things as you all know... However there have been assaults in my area recently , always performed by military skilled east-european gangs.

i am sorry for hearing that dutchy. Also, thanks for the alarm, how can we protect ouserlves against these guys?

Clos has a sport mercedes, hey! you can show your watch just by opening down the car´s window! what a cool idea! i bet you i´ll do that when i´ll get my dad´s car.

Hi tassoti I have a genuine gold longines quartz.....wich is a lot classy but dont fit with me. ALso a genuine two tone cyma watch (gold has faded btw) and a franken datejust which is at joe´s lab. he may put a eta inside. Hope Joe gets well soon! I am planning to get a royal oak or a tudor submariner. Saludos al Pais Vasco! Manuel
