  1. Well, with sapphire, too big case, and no lug holes the AK isn't much of a "vintage". Then again the DJ isn't what I would consider "vintage", either, but it doesn't look bad.
  2. I've had two GMT Masters - one on a rivet and one on a Jubilee. I think that the Jubilee and he GMT are a match made in heaven! I think my current GMT will be going from Rivet to Jubilee on Monday morning!
  3. Let's get this party started!
  4. Some of these can be modified for use as an "overlay" but none that I know of is a direct "bolt on replacement" for the ETA hour wheel, or am I wrong?

It's finished off with a rep riveted bracelet and funky case-back engraving. It's not perfect but looks nice on the wrist and I deem it "wearable" anywhere where WISes aren't coming out of the woodwork. Here's some pics:
  13. I was going to say that a Seiko comes to mind...
