  1. I have a few of these myself...they are great But if you have big watches (44mm PAMs and above) and big straps...then do not order the 12 watch box..I have this and the lid doesnt close properly....If you have small wrists etc you should be fine but because the 12 watch box is shallower, the watches will not fit properly... Ammo straps or Deployant etc set for large wrists will be a problem so choose the 6 or 8, I have a couple of 6ers and these are fine..no probs at all
  2. F....I like that mate...never seen one before And Freddy...thats a beaut mate...sweetness itself
  3. Cant agree more Mario's work is fantastic Though Mario does have a better nubuck in terms of the patterning if you are after the JV look.. I did a pictorial comparison a while back with Mario's strap and a gen JV..
  4. That one escapes mate...I can only think of one thing it could mean and it aint that sort of forum
  5. a gen on a rep forum.....why do that when the latest rep version is the softest and most accurate to date...!!! ;)
  6. Firstly mate Welcome I hope you enjoy your time here...but please have a look at the noob guides etc... There has been a few threads asking this same question and are on this section within last couple of pages...please take the time to search around using the search tool or just scroll through a few pages on here But to answer your question....there are a few out but if you wait there should be an upgraded rep very shortly...indeed you can pre-order if you wish....just go to the dealer section and look for PureTime (Angus) he is having an upgraded version made... Dont bother asking what its like, has anyone got one etc as what you can see on his site is all we can see.. Good luck and hope you find what you are after....
  7. Ass? yes!!...smart? ..definitely not
  8. Yes mate but its covered by that hex tube you see in pic so maybe thats why you cant see it... I can calliper it if you want...where do you want the gasket to sit up in the crown..? Or rather are you modding it or is it staying a 005K?
  9. which still means you need an E series?
  10. Mate...Mind blowing pics....absolutely love them The watch looks great...lovely combo... Great Share
  11. They should be everywhere next week.. but some do have them
  12. Great looking Straps D...tell Z he done a great job I think that strap third from left would look good with black stitch on my non matching 202a Blimey I just noticed I passed my 3000th, !!!
  13. Bloody hell my eye sight has got worse !!! Is it realy Olive green as it looks Ecru'ish to me !! No mickey taking now !!! I really love P's buckles they look fantastic !!! Are you doing any more or is it a one off mate...? Sweet looking combo D, Well done mate...as always you have shown us your gift mate
  14. Here is what t looks like with Hex tube removed...
  15. Thats why I said "visually" I am not sure how Angelus movements came into this thread? as they only relate to the 203 and 267 on the 47mm case...but if you are after one be ready to pay 5K for a very in accurate version which will need a lot of modding to meet the OP version Angelus.... for 217 and 127 you would be talking H and E series movements which can be bought around the $1500 mark or the equivilent if you buy a gen to part out.... I considered this myself for my franken 217...but decided to invest in what could be seen on the wrist...So it has gen CG, Gen Crown, Gen dial, Gen Hands, Gen 217 (not 127) Crystal, gen bezel, but for the movement I used an LH Destro movement which for me was good enough and a modded CB... Now thats was a few quid in itself !!! So you wont get what would be considered a great franken for under a $1000 My be a nice EL with some Zig and gen touches but no more than that...
  16. I would say some time mate... But will be interesting to see the rep vintage lume thats coming on the new 359
  17. Nice mate..thats an Ultimate is it not judging by the sub... Hows that crown looks tight from your pics? Enjoy mate
  18. Thats a good spot mate I am not really one for those sort of details myself.... I know A etc has said the picsare of the actual watch but a few dealers have told me in discussion the pics available are the prototypes and not the final production watches...but whether that will affect anything we see in the released pics is another question... No more than we should expected with the inscriptions !! and the depth issue wont be an issue as its easily sorted...the overalll finish of the case will be very interesting .. Overall though I like the idea of having a decent looking destro at last...
  19. Some Old School cartel cases were also visually front loading.... Though you cannot mix and match with them with things like the CB etc
  20. Not released yet.... Just check the relevant threads
  21. I wear righties on my right hand so opposite to what you mean but same principle and it aint a problem mate...
  22. Mate Your balls are bigger than mine... Either that or you have a secure bunker... The EL looks like the V3? Very clearly see the differences...just underlines how good the EL is but not that good...if you know what I mean.. Bezel shape, Lugs, Boat etc etc I know A is using his own 1950 for the proposed new version...it will be interesting to see if they get it right... just better than EL would be great Great share W If you get the chance next time you are home alone could you take some daylight shots mate...its a great current reference
  23. Lovely Don !!! Really nice mate
