I reckon 6-8k is not enough also..

If so, what is the best option for a good franken yet cost efficient..

Much have been discussed about parts but price is a mystery...

Hi all,

after the bad episode of :

http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/160241-watch-arrived/

i serioulsy is very cheese off..

i have since decided to go all out super franken..

before i do that, can i know the price breakdows for the follows:

Price for Phone Case?

Price for gen luminova service dial and gen hands?

Price for V726?

Price for Yuki bracelet?

Price for gen T21?

so basically is all gen except for case, movements and bracelet...

or it there anyone in the forum able to source the above and build this watch for me?

thanks...

Be it as a good base watch or good enough as a out or box

But his mod is it total replacement of the date wheel or use his date wheel paste over existing?

i just pulled the trigger.

i understand this is the noob model BK is using for his famous modding..

the thing is, i wouldnt want to pay 400 vs 200 for that datewheel modding and rehault alignment..

Does BK sell his datewheel? if yes price?

if not BK whose datewheel comes as close as the gen?

the misalignment is quite a itch...

also, i inted to double ar the crystal and VAC and Cheif seems busy..

who else can i send to?

i know yuki and phong case set are the way to go.

i also read that mbk 6538 are a little off.

but i just want to get a cartel one to try out before i embark on another mod journey.

can some gurus provide me the link to get the best out of the box 6538 at moment?

whats a torobravo???

wow...

thanks but only VISA available at moment..

mastercard no no...

paypal pending confirmation and with fees...

i have checked all dealers but all pricings are so different...that im worrried the cheaper ones may not deliver the real V2...

which dealer sure will deliver this latest 243 V2?

can provide me the link?

thanks

hi,

as you have noticed, once you have raised this bezel issue, i have posted in the forum for advise as shown in the blow link:

http://www.rwg.cc/topic/146028-rolex-dssd-bezel-came-off/

most have said seldom have experience or rather no such issues before,

it would be good if you could take a photo showing the bezel came off beofre the full packaging remove.

now you deemed as spoil is not very fair to me.

please advise.

does it came off so easily?

i remember read before some where you need to ply using a big force to get it open..

hi all,

i just sold a dssd to a forum member.

i have wrapped and paid special attention to the crystal and ensure the watch is positioned in such a way that there is no way the crystal will get hit for some shipping mishandling.

im glad the watch arrives at safe hands but however, i was informed the whole bezel came off with all the small parts that came with it.

the new owner has tried to fix it back but the bezel wouldnt hold it there.

did we miss anything?

please guide us.

thanks....

Noob is better than the Trevor's or eurotimez?

What are the main differences?

what you guys think?

is this the V6?

Works by Pb are:

Cg shaved

Lug holes drilled

Gen t39

Silver datewheel

30atm tested

The rest are from previous owners...

Mjmj,if can please elaborate

My bad to show Pb address

Mbk case

Ndt dial

Gen crown

Gen t39

2846

Joyous day today.

been sourcing fro the right watch, read about PB magic touch and after 3 months of waiting not forgetting almost 1.2k spent on this DRSD, here he is sitting on my wrist now.

the wait is killing but the end product is worth all the wait.

cant wait to share this joy with you guys here with all the valuable inputs.

here are some photos : )

the watch which came as he is, somehow lacking of something

on the way to PB Magic Hands

the finished product from the Magician

the lug holes are drilled and chamfered

been waitng for its return that opted for FEDEX and keeps tracking it

here he is arrives

unpacking and the waiting is finally over

saw the gen t39

nice of PB to protect the T39

on my wrist!!!!

I'm in the oil and gas trade.sometimes just need to wash under the tap.

Dont intend to use it for swim.

Seems PB is the man to go for more mods...

Now the question is....

Who in the forum can I ask to test or even make my water resistant?

Thanks for all inputs.

Hi all,

I just got a mbk 1665 from reg.

I like everything about the watch except that it cannot even stand washing under the tap.

This happens even before I change to a gen T39.

The same happens even with the stock crystal.

I have asked my watch smith to check all seals and gasket and even lubricates them to ensure all is well.

I also understand the HE valve is not a true valve in the sense that is does not drilled through the case.

As such,what could have a cause a leak that whenever I'm inside an air conditioned place the fogging effect will start to surface?

I hope some experts can point to me as I'm quite frustrated after spending a bomb on a gen t39 which is quite a must to bring out the watch and this has to happen.

movement is from the MBK, which is the highbeat 2836-2. Runs great, nice and quiet, and keeps good time.

the slow beat 2846's from the PT offerings are not so great, my was junk and needed servicing. I have heard others with similar sentiments.

I did the crown guards myself with some sand paper and a metal nail file.

wow..your a DIY man.

i read about we can actually convert the higbeat 2836 to lowbeat 2846 with some modifications.

anyone can confirm this?

i have ordered a gen t39.

guess i will just change the t39 and diy myself drill the 2mm springbars first.

the most obvious flaw would be the highbeat 2836 and the silver datewheel.

who can help me with this?

some basics with the mbk are listed here in my recent thread, don't know if any of it will help you out.

hi,

thanks. I have read your post before.

so your movement is 2836 or 2846?

who did the CG shaved for you?

Is Clarks T39 comparable to a gen T39?

I just placed an order from Reg for a 1665.

You mean to say the current mbk is no 1:1?

I am really keen to do the following mods when my 1665 arrives:

Gen tube and crown - source from eBay or?Price range?as long as 7mm crown is okay?

CG shaved - whom can I look for? Price range?

Gen crystal - I know the source

Slower eta 2846 with silver date wheel overlay and open 6/9 - this is tricky, whom can I get from? Or can I just get a 1570? Can e case really fit e movement and date lines up correct in the date window?

Hands - the original mbk dial is clean and neat and I don't quite like too patina - but is the original mbk hands alright?

Last - I would like to mod the HE valve.who can I look for?

I am starting my Franken 1665.

I would like to look for one member whom can mod all e above for me. Anyone in mind?
