So i have finally finished my 16710 GMT Master II. T'was not an easy project. Huge thanks to my mentor and yours ubi for hooking me up with the case and guidance.

Here's what we got:

TW Best GMT Master II classic case

Drilled lugs and gen springbars

Gen 16710 Dial

Gen 16710 black/red insert

Modified eta movement with proper stack

still need to add the gen crown and tube

Here are some pics, hope you guys like.

LOVE THE 1675!!!!!! NICE JOB

went to a jeweler, loosend it lickity split

i have a caseback opener but it stinks, i used the duct tape, no go, usually a caseback comes off with ease with the tape.

i dont do mods as a career, just for hobby if someone needs help, and if i NEEDED a new caseback opener, i would buy one, just trying to get it off without having to spend the money.

this thing is ON!! maybe i should blowdry it

so wait, just press my hand down on the caseback with the latex glove on?

latex gloves???? how so?

on my tw gmt, tried on it to contract the metal but it wont budge, anyone have any homemade tricks?

i got the gen dial set up on the modified movement and she's just dying to get in her new home, help

really starting to like those PO's............

back from the brink of death, now with modded cg's and gen tube/crown (pics comings soon)

Nanuq, its like 14 degrees here in nyc today, so what does it make it up by you, -147???????

very nice pics, and niiice lv, congrats

hahaha, i think maybe this should springboard a "who has the WORST rolex" topic, my god.......

jeeeeeeeessssus, hahahahahahaha, this one takes the cake, wow

both those dealers offer excellent products and excellent service.

Welcome to the boards, and the fun world of rep collecting. Here's a glossary of terms for you to get familiar with:

RWG Glossary of Terms

rolex makes the perfect insert and the pearl wont fall out

what do you need? Thinking of opening my doors to the public, well, the rwg public

only conus members though and only r***x mods.

again, i am just considering this, see what kind of things you're all looking to do

for a gen t-127? very doubtfull, but you never know

astorlive on ebay is correct, and they ship fast. i got a crown tube from them monday and it came today

all gen parts

lol, ITS BOTHERING ME, I HAVE OCD!!!!!!

so we can get back to biddddnezzzzz???? jebus, after all this, we'll probably get a 1:1 rep of a swatch

agree, they look ALOT stronger then the current tubes, but whadddddya gonna do

nice shots and great ref!!! i agree with ubi, much nicer design on those tubes, really like the flat top of the old style ones

very nice by-tor, ubi's legacy franken-16710 is on its way....

definatly look different, the top one looks more like the mage on the 1680...odd, maybe it's just the angle?
