  1. ubiquitous, yours is a rep dial, right? how does a el primero fit, if all pre2000 daytonas come with wrogn dubdial spacing?! is it specialy made for the el primero or what?

    Mine is a refinish on a genuine dial base. So technically not genuine in my book, as it's not the way it was first issued by r-l-x. I consider it to be a redial, or 'aftermarket'. But not original.

  2. it was in the film "KILL BILL" - he was making swords -

    Hanzo was actually Masashige, a member of the Hattori family of Iga and was a clandestine ninja during the 1500's in feudal Japan. To my knowledge, I don't think he had anything to do with fabricating swords; rather he was a skilled swordsman and assassin.

  3. Take a look specifically at the crystal size and bezel.

    Genuine SD's have a smaller diameter crystal, and wider bezel. If you had profile pics, you'd also see that the crystal is thicker, to accomodate the deeper depth rating. Of course, if you saw a profile pic, you'd also see if the HeV was correct or not!

    Like Bob says, however, just because the pictures check out okay doesn't necessarily mean you'll be getting what's shown.

    Caveat emptor!

  4. Gee, I wonder why he didn't het any bids?!?!

    :lol:

    Watch looks interesting. At first glance, because of the subdial layout, it looks like a piece of junk. But if you analyze the photos a bit you'll see:

    -Asymmetric pushers

    -Nice 571 end links

    -A dial with a coronet placed too high

    Hmmmmm... It is a very intriguing watch indeed.

  5. Well, that is a genuine 'flat' T-39, but not the one that's really 'correct' for the DRSD. The DRSD originally came with a T-39 Superdome like this:

    The Superdome, however, is commonly replaced with the 'flat' T-39 these days, as the Superdome is, and has been out of production for some time now.

    BTW- Here is a side by side comparison of a genuine superdome and a genuine flat 39. The Superdome is a friends' watch I installed it on- The flat is my 1665 white font SD:
