Around USD 500, still cheap considering the huge price you have to pay for a vintage Daytona!

Just hover on the first photo and the package reads...PA462-20A, right a crystal that costs $10.50

Lots off aftermarket stuff also! 

If I remember correctly, it will fit. Same feet position. 

Love the bevel work! 

Different sellers!  The one from Propofol's link is selling fake cases. 

I wasn't looking for a 5035, I know these things are not bulletproof and expensive. 

Thx, Will try the ETA route! 

Indeed JMB,  impressive work. 

I bought a few years back a complete case, bracelet and dial. 

The problem is, to find a suitable automatic movement. 

Hi K,  good to see you again,  love the PCG

Gorgeous! 

Love your Frosty,  Nanuq! Mine says hello

Am I reading this right? He's asking $75k for a franken he built?

You read it wrong,  it's $75900 

I'm sure you can Pingle it to 75000 because you're a forum member! 

So it's $900 for the watch and $75000 for the custom work! 

Don't get me wrong,  it's not my intention to break your watch down. 

With a great build like that, it screams for better hands and it will cost you peanuts. 

The hands from Phong or Yuki are just not good in my eyes. 

Tail from the seconds is circled in red and not close to genuine hands. 

Ultra rare with the 500m. dial! 

Not until now.

And the seconds tail a tad to short.

Great build!  You just need decent aftermarket hands.

Not really! 

Oops sorry,  I caught him and at first I didn't know he was a member at TRF. 

The thing is when I see,  I am a member of the NAWCC, IWJG, AWCI............... For most people it's the same as,  OK that's a good guy and they know what there doing. 

Tim Strong is/was a scammer and need to be caught. 

Don't think people from the regular Rolex fora will point a finger to the rep forums.

Many members from the regular Forums are members here or to another rep forum.

It's the only way to know or to discover the new techniques on the aftermarket scene. 

Good job Nanuq!  

Mary's bracelet is actually very good,  early gmt's have the 8 figure endlinks and the weird clasp link like the bracelet from Mary.

Brussels decisions?  Belgium is just a very small country in the EU! It's not the capital city of the EU... 

Lol 

I was looking at this case but the 5 in 5512 is not correct in my opinion. 

No marks from the bracelet on either side or the lugs,  excessive metal on the tube side, etc...

For a start, doesn't a 1016 need a 19mm bracelet?

Nope!
