Joe is working on the pointed guards for mine. Now, the question is: will the dial on the watch on the right be 'correct' if it were placed on the 'pointy CG' watch on the left? ...or do I have to buy that older-style dial (gilted and glossy)?

No disrespect to you Topaz, but I think that we should try to save as many of our informative posts as possible. They are a great resource and will disappear when the "old" RWG comes crashing down. True, they can be recreated over time but why reinvent the wheel.

Joe- A genuine 1675 "NOS" dial is on its way to your shop for install

Joe- You will have to see if the Michael Young bezel fits this case. I am sending you the one I bought from him for the Milgauss. I think it is the same size as the Bond. It looks very nice. Deeper teeth than the WM. If it doesn't fit then I will have it put on my 6541...which is in desperate need of a better bezel too.

Which look do you folks like better? I am leaning towards the earlier model (left).

Do tell...what is the movement and how has it been working?

I never get tired of looking at this watch. Great pics and post Ubi

I think that this is going to be my favorite too. The combination of the brevet, domed crystal, rare dial and white bubble seconds hand makes this a serious looker.

Awesome watch...I'm wearing it now FYI- "the Michael Young effect" means that the dial markers are slightly raised with the application of the new lume.

Starting with a WM vintage GMT (and Joe's skills): We had the small GMT hand made for the ETA movement: With a bezel lift and some case refinishing we should have something like this (but a little less beat up):

I bought a tent and light kit for $75 off a seller on Ebay: I use a black backdrop (included in the above kit) and the acrylic watch stands to hold my watches. I also purchased these off of Ebay. I place my Pentax Optio S4 (5Megapixel point-shoot) on a tripod at the tent opening. (I really want to get a digital SLR so I can use filters and have standard manual adjustable features, like shutter speed and aperature) I use Microsoft's Digital Image Suite software (i'm using version 7, but version 10 is now available) to adjust the image contrast/brightness and clean up dust particles (which become very obvious using the macro setting and bright tangential lighting.)

Ahhh...now that you are here..."crack, crack"...get to work on my watches

This is going to be such an awesome piece...I keep waiting to see a movement make its' way into this case (I'm sure you are too.)
