  1. I was searching the bay by a tip to find a gen buckle from fellow RWG-er Chronoluvv The seller also has this: Never knew a brown OR existed?
  2. What you could do is tape off the bezel and tabs and dremel/polish the top AR off the crystal, should be like 15mins work and you'll have a lot less blue hue to it.
  3. Looks very nice!
  4. Looks very nice though i think with the DLC-ing of the case that a Orange bezel would look much nicer (read:pop) but that just me. And it's not glued yet so give it some thought ;-)
  5. Hehe i LOL-ed. Congrats and lots off happyness to the both of you! I think my GF would want a princess wedding instead but if you are a fan i can understand ;-) I'm thinking if kids come along Luke or Leia would be a contender for a name ;-)
  6. Hi Mickey! Nope that doesn't work, already tried that.. ;-) I know a bit off the inner workings off a watch and the only thing i can think of is that either the spring that clicks into the datewheel is too soft or the datewheel itself has not sharp or deep enough notches. pardon my English btw ;-)
  7. Damn, The watch has been acting up on me Date only changes half on some dates. I think there is a problem with the click When i manually rotate the date it clicks/snaps into place on the numbers: 1,2,3 12-24 and not on the numbers 4-11 and 25-28, can this be fixed by a watch smith? What should be a good price for it? Or do i need to send it back?
  8. Looks like a MX-5
  9. Thanks Mike, Will give it some thought if it's worth the hassle of returning it or having the datewheels changed. Maybe i have to mellow a bit Your Carrera has a much brighter blue hue on the AR or you are better at making pictures of it ;-)
  10. Damn, thanks for pointing that out to me ;-( hadn't seen that yet Also the AR is a lot less strong than i expected
  11. Just received my Carrera See picture, it's buggin me. The datewheels have a diffent color, one is off-white, the other white Is this a common flaw or did the chinese guy/girl in the factory put in the wrong datewheel?
  12. Hi mate looks great! I have a flava lumed one that i bought some time ago myself but i keep irritating me of the constant green of the lume in daylight. Is this common for after market lume?
  13. My v3 also has 60 clicks btw and has the correct datefont, really like the red dial that you have! A red Ocean racer would look cool!
  14. Cool! But would'nt it be better to glue a thin plastic ring on the end so it won't scratch the watch when removing the caseback?
  15. Damn, nice watch, i have the same ;-) Why did sparty sell it?
  16. Thanks Pete, coming from you it means a lot! Well i wouldn't dare modding your xpensive pieces mate ;-) Next time i need to get plastic glovetips or something, i noticed some fingerprints of my grubby fingers on the chrome parts ;-)
  17. Caseback shattered, replaced the caseback and fixed the rest ;-) On to the pics:
  18. Thanks mate! I don't think they repped the blue one yet ;-) Your franken was really nice though ;-)
  19. Here comes the pics: How many watches can you wear?
  20. Haha, lucky indeed! But i think there is no AR on the outside of the crystal on a SOH therefore you cannot scratch it? ;-)
  21. Thanks! Maybe i will get an UPO someday like your great watch! The pumpkin one looks great too!
  22. I have a 24/20mm leather BOB strap for my incoming new white SA. its kinda thick and as i can see now i thing the first holder will be in the way ;-(
  23. Ah ok, but this tang buckle looks different than i expected,the strap connects in the middle and not on the end if you know what i mean It's like this one right? But normally it would look like this one: And i prefer the last i think
  24. Hi guys, I can buy this But it says it's for:22-20 and 24-20 Breitling Diver Pro and Diver Pro II Straps that Measures 20mm at Buckle Side. But will it fit a leather strap too?
