  1. As far as I know these are the best with no further mods really required and have out of box quality: IWC mark xvi IWC vintage Ingy laureus Bell and Ross digi analogue Ebel 1911 panda chrono Omega planet ocean without happy feet version. Anything else to add?
  2. Does anyone know if the TC crown tube would work on the USD? http://tc-submariner.blogspot.com/2012/05/25-tc-rolex-crowntube-set.html It should be the same 703 crown no?
  3. Ah so it has a weak bezel ring? I wonder if it will take an aftermarket replacement? If that is the case getting a real bezel remover is probably the safest way.
  4. Still waiting for it, but is there something special about the bezel on the ultimate that is different from other Rolex reps?
  5. Very easy to remove the bezel but do it carefully and with a towel underneath to catch any flying parts like the click spring. Just use a butter knife wrapped in a microfiber towel or a plastic knife or spoon. Use force but don't warp the bezel itself.
  6. Has anyone been able to get Texski to reply back?
  7. I guess he must be very busy. I emailed him twice about an existing project and haven't heard back for about 1.5 weeks?
  8. The case doesn't have enough CG metal but a lot of real gens do not anymore because they've been overpolished. You can definitely grind it down a bit and make it more gen. The watch came with horrible orange colored markers, need to fix that. Does anyone know if Yuki Tudor caseback would fit this one?
  9. Case + Movement: http://www.yourtrust...products_id=216 Dial: http://ndtradingcorp...products_id=219 Hands: http://www.ebay.com/...=item27be8e2642 Bezel: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bezel-Insert-5513-2-1680-Blue-blue-silver-for-Rolex-/250970516419?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a6f022bc3 or http://www.ebay.com/itm/BEZEL-INSERT-FOR-TUDOR-SUBMARINER-WATCH-79090-BLUE-/310364432925?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4843296a1d Now, I'm not 100% sure if the dial would fit the case or the movement. Do you guys think this should all fit together? Thanks!
  10. I will say eventually, he has always come through.
  11. Hmm I think it's different, especially since it now has the mag cover that the previous one that was reviewed didn't.
  12. www.yourtrustytime.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30_191&products_id=9044 Apparently this is a better version than the one recently reviewed here. I asked Trusty but he has no idea if this will take the gen dial, gen crown, or a Swiss 2892. Any ideas?
