I agree- That does look good.

I probably have a new rotor you can have...

So, what about my 5008/5007? Think it might be bogus?

Just get a new rotor and swap 1 for 1. Sometimes these things just happen...

That guy got his clock cleaned and full well deserved every last bit of it. Serves him right... Maybe next time he'll think twice before trying to rob someone.

Looks pretty nice to me. Not sure on the hallmarks or lack thereof; not the first time I've seen something like that, but you would think they'd be there. Think the 18k gold cases on eBay are the same way....

Cross posted form another Flying Dutchman post... Just the lug pin release pushers. Like IWC. The gens incorporated this feature at some point (I don't recall the serial ref); the benefits of cross pollenation with sister brands in the Richemont house...

Ooops! In my confusion with multiple windows open, I thought I was posting here. Doh!

I thought he had several of all dial/bezel combos possible? He keeps his trench coat lined with like 10 or 20 of them, a couple kept in his tux pocket and 3 or 4 more in secret compartments in the soles of his shoes. Add 30 or 40 of them in the glovebox of his DBS and 10 more in his hotel suite. I hear that on days when he's feeling especially mischievious, he'll flush a couple down the toilet in his hotel room to see if it will clog up the pipes. Usually on the last day of his stay... The maid staff hates that shit.

Maybe James Bond forgot his luggage somewhere as he was called to duty in another location across the globe? Wouldn't be the first time it's happened. You should see how many watches of his turn up at yard sales, auctions, street corner vendors, etc.

31J!! .... Speechless...

Porsche Design is the cleaner of the two, I think. Even better if you have a Porsche to drive while the Porsche Design is on the wrist...

On the wrist, with your arms moving, varying lighting etc. it's going to be pretty difficult to tell what's on your wrist, especially at a distance. It's one thing to see things in a pic to scrutinize, but out in the real world it's far more difficult to tell with a nice, higher quality rep.

MBK Nauti Jumbo... Definitely a classic. Love the case design with the hinged top/bezel like gen. At times, I do miss mine...

Both... And without movement issues:

When I had it, it was fine. No problems, good time keeping, etc. If I had kept it, I'd have eventually opted for a movement swap of one kind or another...

I've whittled it down to a small collection... Maybe 9 or so total. I've let some good ones go... Some that I wish I hadn't Win some, lose some...

If you are looking for the most accurate out of the box, WM9 is the way to go. Pricey? Yes... But so is buying the same watch 2 or 3 times over trying to find the right one

All the best on this special day, buddy!

Old version?

V1. Definitely...

Maybe I can trade straight up?

He's still around. I'm not sure what transpired exactly as I had taken a small break from the forums when all of this was unfolding, but it seems as though he is working on getting things back on track...
