RG,
Glad to see you posting again. All of my family here are in my prayers. Glad your health and outlook has improved.
I really miss the old stuff.....always a great read.
Peace!
Thanks R,
I got it in a trade with a member. I think it was one of those MBW clones with the really shiny steel. It had a nylon gasket to help the retention ring fit snugly.
I got this MBW 1665 in a trade for some shtuff. CG's were okay but beyond repair. I decided to take them off. Thinking of PVD for it and then perhaps a sterile dial and 5517 hands(Special ops).
Gen crown 24-704 and Gen tube 24-703, Gen spring bars and a Nato with Rolex buckle.
Feedback appreciated.
Enjoy your weekend,
Kurt.
Wearing this Spinmaster(Crapmaster) DW 6263. Gen Crystal, Gen crown(24-704) and gen Tube. Damn chrono hand wanders, resets all over the place.....but the damn thing keeps perfect time......go figure.
Coming to a sales section near you.
Have a great weekend!
What Ubi said is correct. The spacer ring under the dial needs to be very thin or you need the 2836 movement. Snap some pics of the movement(showing the balance). Not a hard fix.
Good luck.
