  1. I like it. The only modern Rolex/Tudor I'd buy. Well, I wouldn't buy, I'd use 'Nooks recipe and make one of those then take the family out for a steak dinner with the $200 change
  2. If it's an alligoat recommendation then you've got no worries. Enjoy.
  3. Well knock me down with a feather, I never noticed that, I've never read anybody pointing that out before. All power to you and your efforts - I stand corrected. Well done that man!
  4. The knowledge here never ceases to amaze me. Nice one guys.
  5. Here you go... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ETA-movement-part-date-disc-silver-2824-2836-2893-oyster-date/122760855411?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649
  6. I'm no expert but this has already been done by polexpete. His overlays are widely used and seem pretty good to me. They're readily available on fleabay. I'm not trying to p*ss on your chips just letting you know that your admirable efforts might be best spent elsewhere. How about a white one? For some reason pp has only made his in silver. Or, how about a datewheel that slots straight on to the movement? I know some modders hate overlays coz alignment is a real pita!
  7. I have the printing skills of Stevie Wonder and the computing skills of an amoeba. Now, if you want to put on a production of Hamlet in an inappropriate venue with a tiny cast and a budget of thruppence ha'penny I'm your man!
  8. You know what we really need? A flat top 3 date wheel that fits straight onto an ETA 28xx movement for use in 1665 and 1680 reps. We've nearly got it cracked with polexpete's DWO but it's an overlay and a pita to fit/align. I'm sure one of you geniuses out there can make a toothed wheel that just pops straight on, no aligning and all that jazz. I've got really nice vectors of the date wheel in the correct fonts sitting in my hard drive if anybody would like to take up the challenge?
  9. That leaves me only one option.... I'll have to tunnel my way in
  10. It's OK I suppose if you like that sort of thing . Now, if I trained really hard you reckon I could swim to Alaska, sneak into ,nooks pad, tea leaf the thing, swim back to UK and be asleep before the trouble and strife notices? Worth a try methinks Nice one Nook ;-)
  11. Obviously it depends on your circumstances but cash in itself is not an appreciating asset a daytona is . Personally I'd take the cash and buy a classic car
  12. One small observation: When you scroll down the homepage first you see 'the lounge' then secondly the 'trading zone'. This sends a message to the casual observer that we are more about buying and selling than we are about the appreciation of watches. I would suggest that the 'brand forums' be put before the 'trading zone' to emphasise what our priority is. If indeed talking watches is our priority. If not please ignore everything I've just said
  13. I'd love to send it to you as Manny is my hometown but rules is rules. Jump on board, upgrade to VIP and the pinkie is yours.
