Lello is on a short journey to the Big Apple. Kruzer, I know he was hoping to meet you there.

Pug, dun be a Pug! It's obvious that what we see in the avatar is a 2D representation of a 3D representation of a 4D cube In that post of mine that you quoted I was not talking about the avatar, just about the very tesseract. And you surely agree that a tesseract is a 4D cube -- or a hypercube, if you prefer ('4D hypercube' is a bit of a redundance, isn't it?). Actually, at the age of 13 I drew a 2D projection of a tesseract and submitted it to my tech design teacher. She did not understand, she thought I was trying to make joke of her -- and no, not because of so bad drawing skills of mine. She threw my drawing away and she assigned me a sound 2 (out of 10). That was my time to realize that adults and authorities may be incredibly dumb...

If a genuine dial fits your movement, then replacing the dial is a very easy task that any watchsmith can do. Provided he is willing to work on reps, naturally.

Another good point indeed.

If you want us to count how many crown teeth are there then yes, we would need some better pics.

A gen would spoil me from enjoying all the mods.

Very very very interesting! Thanks! 'brand9'?

Very interesting, thanks! I just wonder how the compiler of the arcticle incurred long-term brain damage even without being employed in chemical fumes environment when he was a teenager...

Thanks for the great review and comparison! Apart from the faults you pointed out about the screw size and location and so, are you positive that the gen 01-97 back is identical to the 01-96 back? And... who is the dealer claiming this 1:1?

I am complete noob on HBB, but is it not supposed to have a 'granular' (I don't know the correct word), sort of hobnail-like, texture on the bezel's side? That model by Silix -- like much cheaper models too -- looks plain smooth on the bezel's side...

I bet it is because of its almost square shape. A 46mm-side square has a lot bigger area than a 47mm-diameter circle!

The location of the dial screws -- and the related shortened length of the minute marks close to them (I seem to remember I already mentioned it somewhere). To me, this makes for a very first-glance rep tell on this watch... ... to the point that I even accepted blue hands and marks (I really like them) as well as the 'limited edition' text. Incorrect to incorrect, I decided to go for the model I liked the most. And I think I am going to love that watch anyway.

Very good points. I agree. Just but about exanthema being like jumping the gun. I think it should go into differential diagnosis even if with a very low probability. Too wide variability in adults' systemic signs, and they can come out after a while. I too think that most likely V has not an exanthematic disease. Just, as noone mentioned it, I wanted to make sure that that small probability was not going to get completely forgotten. ...But Victoria, how are you?

Actually, my dear V, a tesseract is a 4-D cube...

Try googleing for the following string: esa OR eta "2557/1" you should get some results where to furtherly search for your specific datewheel.

Ok, I give up. What that so evident flaw would be?

Wow!

Very uncommon for an allergic dermatitis, urticaria-like, to slowly spread along many hours. And chin is an even stranger location. Personally, I would not take any drugs before a diagnosis is made. 90% chances are that your rush is self-estinguishing. Otherwise (e.g. some mild exanthematic disease), things will become soon clear. Best wishes, let us know how this goes on.

At what extent are your arms involved, V? Only forearms, or arms too? Any other body parts?

Wow! Auguri e congratulazioni, V!

No, I don't.

In that case I humbly suggest you get that watch serviced, as its small second hand runs along 5 seconds in less than 2 seconds... Thanks! The best mix ever.

I too believe the 212 and 253 have the same case. Replacing the crystal is easy, as long as you have a press for crystals with proper dice, and you know how to remove the crown and movement. Else, any local watchsmith will be able to do it for you (provided he is willing to work on reps, naturally).

PMed you.
