  1. It may be broken off and I have also had a21j movements that had this pin recessed and needed a sweep hand with a long tube.
  2. It is always of great interest to get the dealer's points of view and provide feedback. I look forward to anything Rolex or Tudor related you might decide to discuss.
  3. Bill - Is the crystal too big or too small? I've found that a lot of the PT and Cartel cases need the OD of the rehaut machined smaller .008" - .012" before the crystal will fit. Forcing will usually crack the crystal... Urban - If the sweep hand's tube is just a bit large you can carefully "crimp" it and it should work. An ETA will likely be a "drop-in" but new hands will be needed.
  4. I put this one in the sale section a couple days ago, after changing bezel from smooth to fluted, and I am now having second thoughts...
  5. After I ordered it said to contact their customer service if I didn't have it in 7 days but I think that is waaaay optimistic. I'm getting the strap as it looks a whole more correct than the bracelet. The clasp is so wrong it is really starting to bug me...
  6. Maybe I should rescue one, shave off the CGs, machine out an acrylic insert...
  7. Even though I'm not a big "strap" fan I just ordered one of these as well. You got yours yet, woof?

  9. idolreplicas.com had the same thing and just morphed into idolreplicas.net
  10. I been fantasizing about lug holes... But, I feel genuine today...
  11. I only have one at present and it's for a "project", sorry...
  12. I have gotten 2874s off fleabay for pretty cheap.
  13. No Tudor today. But, this sorta feels like an overgrown Prince Oysterdate!
  14. Small and simple is today's theme...
  15. It seems that date wheel overlays are a big/major Achilles heel of any Rolex project. I have some white ones but the font is weak. I have wanted to experiment with some but I am to the point where I don't have any time to just "play" anymore...
  16. Great lookin' watch, woof! It looks like it fits you perfectly.
  17. Staying with this one...
  18. It seems to be us against the world, Red!
  19. Gads! Major bugs in the translator program....
  20. What is meant by, "Full Ceramic Coated Blue/Red Sandwich Numeral Bezel"? Does look nice, but I'm starting to feel that all of the new ceramic insert models lack soul...
  21. The crystal has excellent clarity, would not surprise me if it was gen...
  22. All done except for the engraving!
