He sends QC pics but doesn't want you to show anyone? Sounds fishy.. I wonder if he sends the same QC pics to several people.

I wanted to try something different and something that strays from the "as gen as possible" thought... I put an SSD bracelet on the Sub. I never really liked that the sides of the Sub were polished but the sides of the bracelet were brushed. This made the bracelet look even cheaper than it actually is (and gen Sub bracelets do look kind of cheap). Anyway, here it is. ]

Lume shot: Also, the etched crown is about the best I've seen on a rep. Compared to the SSD it's nearly invisible. Stands out more in the pic than in real life.

I just got this in the mail yesterday. It started as a WM9 or PT V1 with the flat S dial. It was serviced and the dial Dial was relumed (Domi) and CG's modded, and BK's custom crown was installed (Was told by BK). I bought it as having a gen insert/pearl, but I think the insert is from a 16800 as it's flat black. The gen pearl looks incredible. Opinions?

Thanks! I've been thinking of getting one of the PT 1680 or 1665's.

Could you post a pic of the PT 1680 next to the Yuki one to compare?

I actually meant that as a tongue in cheek type question, like "Why don't Conservatives conserve?"

Had the same thing happen to me when swapping a movement into my WM9.. For me the keyless got out of whack. Had to take off the dial and datewheel and take apart the keyless works and put it back together right. Very scary if you've never done it before. For me, the hardest part is getting the date wheel back on right, because you have to take the overlay off.

How does Stainless Steel get stained?

Every pic of a gen I see it looks like the triangle top follows the curve of the bezel. I've seen a flat top on the triangle and you could really see a difference. I think the real problem with the Noob bezel is the tick marks are not thick enough.

Probably Chicken or Duck... if your lucky.

I used to be really into Scotch, I've tried a lot of high end ones and low end.. I settled in the middle area a while back, but now I'm more into simpler stuff like Jameson Irish Whiskey. I can do Jameson shots all night and not go broke. I sill have half a bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue for special occations.

I believe the 14060 dial is smaller than 16610.

I really like that DSSD, especially the pearl and the ring lettering. Is this a Noobfactory? I'd also like to know the exact source.

Actually, you have it backwards. This is a WM9 V1 with a Noob ETA LV dial and movement. The inserts are the same size though, but I think all the standard ones need to be filed down on the bottom to sit right. Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us

The LV has the Maxi Dial (fat markers) and a fat minute hand.

Looks perfect. Now you can sell it.. that's what this hobby is all about right?

Pretty nice, except it looks like you are owed a new hour hand. Also, a bit disapointed in the lower endlink fit.. I think this is the same as the GMT IIC case and the bracelet fir on the better versions of that was perfect.

I don't see an "edit" button...

Yeah, so I'm tired and couldn't spell Submariner.

Great to hear good reviews of this coming in. Can't wait to get mine in my hands. Put up some pics if you can!

I just ordered mine. Really looking forward to getting it! A modern Sub that takes Gen parts.. this is a good day.

Who was the guy with the Batman fettish, who ended up scamming a bunch of people?
