Doh !!

Nice and very different sort of Seiko But come on mate !!! Wheres the pic of the Samurai Umbrella ??? That lume looks like it could be very sweet!!

In which case mate its just the bracelet OP always have different model numbers for watch models available in leather or metal bracelet. It comes from the fact a lot of cases were made differently if they came with a bracelet fitted. There were little grooves to accomadate the bracelet and its movement. Now you can buy micro adapters

Hi guys Just got an Email from B&R straps (Not Official) They have a sale on this weekend from Saturday 27th to Monday 29th. When you got to checkout enter " Black25 " and recieve a 25% diiscount on everything on the site. (according to Email) As well as Leather, Exotic in varying sizes they do Nato's and lug bars and screws for SS and PVD watches. And the hex drivers. Here is link to website - http://www.bandrbands.com/

The one at the top is the 196. Maybe you can see the differences now

That doesnt surprise me Guess that leaves annoying the owners into selling them

I understand some a being made by Taka but wont be ready till after Crimbo

+1 Pics would be good, would be interested to see the variation It cant be a charge issue in the QC pics I have seen from other members given the hands arent kicking out the charge. Setting aside even if those ones were charged they were still the wrong mix One of the CG issues seems to be more related to the variation in the Oring on the crown, I had another one pass through my hands and the Oring was a different size !! Though the movement issues are consistent I have had a couple or three of the 7753 daylights serviced now by different WSs and the issues were consistent. fortunately I was able to have all the dodgy parts replaced with ETA parts

Thanks for taking the time mate. The gen CG looks nice as does the watch I think it underlines why spending more on an LH is worth the price every day of the week . There have been a few comparison threads of the LH, Gen, DSN, Snembo etc by Doc, Tx and UR and all show where the differences are. As I recall TB based his on a 111i as did WSO but the closest without doubt is LHs. I recall posting some pics myself of the LH and Gen. In your hand the LH and gen are very close on the watch on your wrist they are indistinguishable The only difference was the overall thickness. Always good as well for compoarison to see the CGs from lug side as it sits on the watch The TB with its flaws still needs a lot of work once recieved IMHO but a great budget CG Thanks again mate

I want a Rolex !! Blue Ceramic ... but until I manage to learn where and what to look for I am wearing this old beater and staring at LHoo's

PM HackR if he dont know noone does He will help if he can... nice bloke & great member

I was hounding BK for a few model subs, he mentioned there was a new version coming soon including the TT with better finished gold plate. Also I was chatting about some new PAMs coming soon with a dealer of repute here and he mentioned that a few new Rolies were on the horizon his exact words were next few months but we all know what that means I didnt press him on the Rs as they aint my sort of watch !! Though I got the feeling as with the next batch of PAMs it was not far off Of course Jackjo does a nice line in SSDs

From the ones I have seen there are 2 versions, the cartel as in your link and a cheaper version that has a 3 by the DW !!

How do you mean? France? ;)

Blimey you have few there mate Look forward to seeing the specs and better pics for the sales

Nice share Thanks mate

If you look in that link you can see its supplied with a 6497 so I would assume yes mate I am sure someone on RG did this mod with a 21J version from TS and the CB The one on WE comes with 6497

Defo the black for me or the regular issue grey would look good too Nice pics

Definitely appealing I like the stubby wide crown and the full size bezel with the feeling of a deep rehaut It really lifts the look of the dial and feeling of size

Try a retitle "Rep Service or Watchsmith in Metro Boston" with Sub heading etc Maybe catch someones eye Good luck

I assume you mean the 6154 Vintage? Or this fantasy one http://www.retrospec...h.com/1954.html If not the Big Egi small is 52mm that DSN does If so there is a fair bit about it but best to just type in on the search tool. I have seen the better ones such as VDB to the self build versions. All look good

Looks great on the NATO Never sure about the inscriptions/font on the dial with that military style though (for me) Did you do the AR ?? Or is your AR being repped

You will struggle with all the usual guys coming up to Crimbo. Maybe if you share your location then some of the US guys might know a smaller local watchsmith who will work on reps for a simple service

Mario is a little gold nugget, fantastic skill and great craftsmanship. Great bloke

Mate !! Now you have spoiled my surprise !!! But thanks though I was expecting a PAM !!
