lhooq

Based on that blurry picture, I can't tell-ell-ell-ell-ell! What the Rock! Is wearing. Honestly, it could be any number of mid-60s chronographs: Breitling Top Time, first-gen Heuer Autavia, Universal Compax... And those are just the bigger names.

Carrera Day:

Gee Ess Tee

I really think a lot of us were hornswoggled by this DW retirement talk!

Wet Sunday

Fantastic! But have you thought about installing a set of baton hands on it?

No, V72 hands won't fit. You'll need to contact DW directly by email.

Explorer. Good idea!

I can't comment on which endlinks will fit your case, but you can get proper-width subdial hands from DW. Alternatively, WSO has a set of 7750 Daytona hands, but I've no idea if they're any good If you really want to get all the details right, try finding a needle-like hand for the running seconds.

Looking forward to seeing this in front of a dial. Good work!

No mods needed.

I'm not aware of any reps available for open sale in Seoul. During my time there, all I found was a nice vintage watch shop in Insadong. Prices were on the high side.

woof* has a great rifle, a great car, and knows someone who can resize riveted bracelets properly. Count your blessings, R! Daytona Friday:

The white-lume-on-gilt is the best 1016 dial that Yuki has made in three years. Good choice! It's neat to think that the dial would have looked something like that if you'd bought an Explorer in, say, 1965

Cats: I love walnuts, and those look gooood. Nice Sub, too. FAP 6239, on leather for a change:

If I were rich enough, I'd buy one just to make my friends squirm. I'd like to see which of them are willing to be the brutally honest boy from "The Emperor's New Clothes".

Modern or vintage Daytona? Try searching eBay for "19mm rally" or "20mm rally" and you'll find a bunch of lookalikes. Personally, I really like the Hirsch Rally strap.

Yeah, but how many Rolex rep wearers are part of the community?

A darker shade of red, and a little color to the hands and dial would do the trick. It's looking great already.

Now you've got me mixing up famous movie soundtracks of the 1960s: "How do you solve a problem like... Goldfinger! He's the man... Unpredictable as weather, and as flighty as a feather!"

J, you're operating at the speed of light! It feels like it was only last week when you were spitballing a Black Bay franken... Oh wait, that was last week.

Climb ev'ry mountain... Good luck and Godspeed, F! You make all of us proud!

It's a perfectly natural reaction to seeing the Statue of Liberty buried in the sand.

That's the guy who looks like a cross-breed of Will Forte and Crispin Glover.
