after i saw some more member pics from Joshs 1675 i think its not soooo bad did anybody tried to change plexi or bezel with better parts ? i also whould love to see more pics of the white dial version thx! Frank

freezing cold here too ... wearing my poor-mans gilt Sub cheers + nice weekend, Frank

blablabla an other stupdid Domi bushing thread .... ist getting booooring .... always the same motherfickers complaining guys this is a [censored] big buisiness for some people not only Chinese people make money with reps .... cheers, Frank P.S. an Concepta watch is not a gen watch - even if you pay some fortune for a few IWC parts

problem is the Wok - sadly wanted to get one of this cases till i saw one here ....

i know older MBW Sets marked 1680, a little younger ones marked 5513 - the newest are 5513 L-series ? (i think these where the first "official MBW 5513s) which one is yours ? cheers, Frank

nice tropical dial Mr. Cube ! 28th is Rolex day cheers, Frank

thats the problem why oh why from all Rolexxxes they make an 1:1 YM case ? come on ? where is the GMT, the SD, all the vintage modells ?

better start with Asian Unitas http://www.siswatch727.com/index.do or get one of those cheap beat up Seikos from ebay. http://www.clockmaker.com.au/diy_seiko_7s26/ cheers, Frank

okay guys - i will start over with my little DG friend - tonight i will let him in the watchbox with the Swiss brothers - peace great infos automatico - sounds like the older movements whould be even better for this project.

WSO = this seller on Ebay : http://www.ebay.de/itm/RETAINING-BEZEL-INSERT-FOR-ROLEX-NEW-GMT-BLUE-RED-16700-/160657657069?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2567f14ced

okay inexpensive but the whole "feel" is like 2 classes lower than ETA - not to mention the cheap sounds it makes while winding

now with better movement cheers, Frank

finito - habe fertig ! project finnished thanks esp Domenico for bring the focking DW dead on to the center ! all in all im happy and managed to stay under my $500 budget - even if i still hate the cheap DG movement at least it keeps good time ) cheers, Frank

cheers, Frank

guys ! thats a very nice 1675 over there - nothing wrong with it

thanks - very good pics for reference - the dial looks like my Yuki dial wich reminds me - i have to finnish my watch

the problem is: they are without the etched crown - that you cant see on gen crystals anyway an other problem - they gotten more expensive (like 100 Euro including gasket) cheers, Frank

i have a few but got tiered answer questions about etches crowns or Ss so i did not put them for sale anymore

nope - fake

i hope the crown is ultrahuge - but i dont think the CGs can be fixed - they are way too short - it may work with an 5513 that "could" have been polished over and over - but for the SD ?

what happened with the CGs ? MIA ?

cheap Ass(strap) day cheers, Frank

yes - litle too low - on Joshs pics it look better - i whould install a gen crown + better insert and shave the CGs ... i wait till i see some member pics - then i guess i have to order one

thanks !! no straight front shot can not see the rehaut could be a nice beater edit : Josh has pics up - rehaut looks good !

i just hope the stuff will fit in my MBW case
