  1. love the polished mid links...
  2. ill try and replace the crystal before it goes then, what did you mean about the dial? is it any good? or do you think it should be changed
  3. thanks for the advise alligoat, the dial is in mint condition but the plastic crystal (think its plastic anyway) does not do the watch any justice. ill have a look at vrf. thanks jeejay it is nice but i want to start a franken sub, so it was either this one or my other datejust that has to go. cant part with my other one. thanks
  4. sorry, forgot to say i'm in the uk
  5. hi all, thinking of selling my gen 16030 datejust, just wanted to know if anyone here on the board wanted it, if not can you point me in the right direction as to where to sell it. dont really like using ebay as its full of dealers giving stupid offers. also, what do you think i should sell for? it has no box or papers but was serviced in 2005 by the last owner. it has a 3035 quick set movement, the case is in great condition with miner marks, (will polish out) the bracelet has some stretch but still tight. sorry if the pic's are large. thanks guy's and hope you can help. craigb
  6. wow... very nice friend you have, yeah yuki is probably the best option.i'm not sure about the sizes but im sure someone will chime in, good luck with the project,
  7. i do like a dj, but the one flaw that sticks out to me with the rep's is the sel's. they are to large, and fill the hole lugs. they should be a lot smaller just like the sub sel's or the milgauss. why dont the factories correct this? and if im correct the dj11 only comes with an oyster band at the moment.
  8. very nice, im thinking of changing my dial, do you think anyone on here would be intrested in the blue dial and hands?
  9. nice dj... is that the 16030, heres a shot of my gen 16030. stick with the original bezel, sorry if the pics a little large
  10. thanks for all the info, i have already got a gen dj. but mine has not got the bulge at the crown and thats why i asked. would of bought it though.
  11. here is the link. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180531766419&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
  12. afternoon guys, came accross this datejust on ebay, was going to place a bid until i noticed the strange shape of the case, crown side. take a look and let me know what you think.
  13. as soon as you have finished the watch be sure to pm me. im currently looking for a sub.
  14. at 1400 thats not bad, but how on earth can you let a watch get that bad. good luck
  15. thanks for your help, i didnt remove the rotor just in case i couldnt get it back on. well all the lose lume is now gone. thanks
  16. hi guys need some help. some of my lume dots have come lose from the dial. and i need to remove them. ive circled the screws in red that i think that release the movement, am i right in saying that the yellew circle is the stem release? hope you can help me. craig
  17. thanks fxrandy i will definately get in contact with him. panerai153 thank you for your advise about ebay, i would of thought it would be safe on ebay as of peoples feedback. maybe not. and to vintage1680 i think your 100% right. you guys do know your watches. thanks for all the help. i'm definately going to buy a gen, but might also get wm9 for everyday wear, well thats if one comes up on here.
  18. ok thanks guy's, as soon as i trawl through ebay i'll post some for you. thanks for your help.
  19. hello to all. i'm currently looking into buying a gen sub. but would like to know what to look out for to stop myself getting burned. i know the basics like the cg's, insert. but not sure about the rest. like how smooth the bezel should move, dial's. any comments would be a great help. thanks craig
  20. i would of thought the end links would fit a bit more snug, but i think we should leave this one to the real experts here on rwg
  21. they do still have them, just too ashamed to show them off, i thought i was going to get ripped into for showing my old dog off. i had an amani watch from spain, it stopped working on the plane home, couldnt handle the altitude.lol
  22. you have got to drag the other one out.... realy it cant be worse than that one. do you remember how much you paid for it? other member's need to get their old dodgy ones out. then we can decide who has the worst rep! lol
  23. oh my god.....i didnt think they was ever made so bad. i bet you thought you was the daddy with that on your wrist when you first got her. super reps dont come any better than our two little beasts. lol
  24. i wish mine had come in a shiny tacky plastic box. if i remember rightly mine did come in a box, but it was cardboard with a rolex sticker on it.lol. i want to see some pics of your folex. never mind who has the best rep. i think we should start who has the worst rep!
  25. Well guy's i thought i would help take the stresses and straines away from everyday life with a good old laugh. Here is my very first rep, bought in 2001 for the large sum of 10 pounds. i now use this beast to learn how to mod, you will see that i did try to mod the cg's, Hence the word try. all im going to say is that wm9 need to be worried because i think this is the new super rep.
