  1. Movement isn't as nicely finished as genuine... A bit crude in comparison, as the gen just looks more refined.
  2. Just get one of EL's custom made DJ's and slap a gen dial on it.

    Jetmid

    I am sure that if it really was Jetmid, he'd probably be 'flossin' a Bentley or sumptin. A Maxima would be far too pedestrian for him!
  4. Futbol wages must be pretty good. I mean, heck... They put up with stuff like this all the time.
  5. Heehee... There is always something new to learn! But, seriously... Fundamental vintage Rolex is pretty easy to know once you have the dates and production variations in mind...
  6. Diego Maradona may have worn 2 watches (1 per wrist), but Basile Boli wears 7 watches on one arm...
  7. I keep meaning to pick one of these up. I'd love some Rolex reading material. I hate to admit it, but the only watch related book I've ever owned was a Panerai Style Book II...
  8. watchmaker9 has been around for a while. The Sub in question looks very similar to an MBW or TW Best Classic; perhaps they are sourced from the same factory...
  9. Excellent decision Froggy!! I'd keep it too
  10. Agree with Ken. The only ones who truly deserve to be called out are the ones trying to pass rep for genuine.
  11. Have a look around the diameter of the bezel. If there is a section that is notched for a blade to fit, I'd start there. Since it's a rep, I wouldn't count on that being the case, however. So, instead, it's probably a matter of picking a spot and having a go at it. Maybe between the lugs, since there probaby isn't much case surface there to scuff. You can also apply a piece of masking tape to the case to prevent scratches...
  12. Wonder if there is any way to get these to work with the 2836? Genuine Day and Date wheels for a 3155.
  13. My guess, based on the appearance of the insert's font, surface finish, and color is that he is using the original MBW insert with the luminous dot replaced.
  14. I'll have to take a look... I know a 190x will work. I also believe an 18xx will work as well. I just sold one of my movements and one of my datewheels, so I am down to one now...
  15. Goddamn he is a tubby bastard. Cocaine's a hell of a drug!
  16. Ahhh... So, rather he is wearing 116520's (not the Zenith)...
  17. I need to see if I can find the pic of him wearing a pair of white faced Zenith Daytonas....
  18. Saw this on the local news last night before falling asleep and had a little chuckle... Article here. Maradona is typically wearing two Rollies at once; one on each wrist and both I believe to be Daytonas.
  19. Probably only a matter of sliding a razor blade between the bezel and case, and then gently lifting the bezel off. Once removed, simply re-align and press back on...
