Where did you source the date wheel? If it's a Lello, then be aware there could be some alignment issues. My Lello date wheel is a bit off, but nothing a gentle nudge with the crown in position-1 can't fix. This is despite a full movement servicing and tweaking by Rex. Good luck with your project!

VERY NICE!!! Wear it well...I hope to come back from my vacation with a new gen!

Thanks for all of the feedback! I'll take pictures and post them when I return to the States! Now...which watches to bring with? Hmmmmm.....

I did the MBK / MBW shopping spree last Fall in BKK. That was fun! I believe the name of the store is NDT Trading? Someone correct me if I'm wrong...

Good evening! I will be in Singapore this weekend. Can a local recommend a good spot for strap shopping? Or perhaps a good place for gen shopping? I'll also be going to Siem Reap and Hanoi. Has anyone had any luck with rep-shopping in those places? Any advice would be appreciated...Thanks!

Eff-the Submariner! This will be my next gen-diver purchase!

Already have one, otherwise I would all over this! I paid MUCH more for mine.

I'm not affiliated with the buyer...I just wanted to pass this along. http://forums.watchuseek.com/showthread.php?t=187169 It's a great deal!

What's "reasonable" these days for a genuine Tropic-19? I need one for my 5512 project...

What happened to the thread that was "tracking" movement failures in these things? Anyone applied the "powdered graphite" approach to help with the reliability?

Great post! I was contemplating a similar post a while back but then I had to reconsider. From the time when I got sucked into this crazy world, I think I've been through close to a hundred watches! I'm always amazed at what I sell and then re-acquire...

Even on the gens, the lever arm is not flush with the CG when closed...

HOLY CRAP! I just saw this thread! Sorry to see you go. I'll be sending positive thoughts your way in the hopes that your situation improves. WHEN and I do hope WHEN you return, you'll definitely be welcomed back! Until then amigo...Take care of yourself and your family! P.S. If by chance if you ever find your way in the DC-area, let me know...I'll have cold one waiting for you!

I've tried applying single AR but I need to have it done again. The single AR was applied at a lower temp to preserve the integrity of the cyclops. I would like to apply double-AR at a high temp and then apply the cyclops.

Have you tried searching the "Dealer's Section"? Here you go... www.puretimewatch.com www.kingwatches.net

Wow..Thanks for this! Perhaps I can finally finish my PAM048 "Ultimate Project"!

DEFINITELY a great, new policy!!! I also buy from the gen forums and it's SAD-SAD-SAD that they don't implement similar measures.

Did anyone spot the bottom left?

Thanks...I've already looked there. I can't seem to find single shoulder pins longer than 22mm.

Anyone know where I can find XL, single shoulder spring bars? I would like to fit these to my Graham ChronoFighter. The lug width is 24mm but the pin needs to be a bit longer to protrude through the lug ends. The lugs measure ~ 30mm from outside-edge to edge. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Just for emphasis... 6-9-12 Navi's could also benefit from these date wheels!!! Please provide us more details...I'm assuming you've overcome the printing and alignment issues?

Still stuck on the Graham...

I'll try to post some photos tomorrow...

Oh Really?!? Please send me the link...

Oh hell yeah!!! I would definitely buy one of these...I already have the SS CF Diver and I'm now hunting for the PVD Diver!
