  1. Thanks ! raffletime has only yellow lume i am looking for white lume i asked helenarou they only have sterile flake dials MK emailed me that they will soon have tudor snowflake dials but only 26mm
  2. Hi Im looking for a 29mm tudor snowflake dial with white lume for my fantasy ceramic submariner build i checked rafflestime but they only have yellow lume flake dials this ceramic case is a sterile one which fits a 29mm dial ,the build will be based on the pelagos submariner thanks in advance !!!!!
  3. A simple check is if you shake the watch face up from side to side you should hear the rotor a sort of scraping sound , but if you shake the watch face up up and down and hear a sound like something is loose then it could be your rotor has come undone just needs refitting with is screw ,
  4. get in touch with raffles time he sells these cheap movements and other parts i have had bad swiss movement watches, i ordered two ceramc subs swiss clones one was perfect and the other was badly finished and had stem/winding issues, my first ever 15 usd rep 10 years old and still running great with a china 21j Good luck !!!
  5. Hopefully the laser etched engraving are not too deep ,i have a couple of 5513s and a helenarou that needs doing and a tudor flake !!!!
  6. Yes i agree , i purchased a rep date just for my sister a swiss eta but women will not wear the watch every day and when they want to put it on they want a watch that is ready to go so quartz is the best bet , also the datejust hidden clasps are a bit of a struggle at time to open and complaints of breaking fingernails trying to open a tight clasp, i would go for another brand !
  7. Thank you freddy ! i checked it and you can see the tube threads are stripped, i think caused by exactly how you said the only option for me is a athayia or helenarou crown i dont want to spend up to 280usd !
  8. Veeeeeerrrrrrrrrryyyyyyy niiiiiiicccccceeee ! Love it , these subs have something that is a cut above the ceramics IMO !!!
  9. Two of my yukiwatch 6538 cases have had problems with the threads the brevet crowns can not screw up tight and just pop out leaving the watch unprotected you can push the crown up to the case without it threading . I have emailed yuki but they do not supply tubes only crown/tube sets do we have any other options ? i like the curved finish of the yuki brevet the athayia brevet crown is flat , but a very good buy. I will order a helenarou crown tube to try but i think that the crown is 8.2mm size helenarou crowns have very good strong threads as fitted to my homage blackbay .
  10. Thanks stevedrk ! appreciated also your brevet crown is from helenarou ? he was not engraving cases when i ordered my HR case looks super !!!!
  11. Nice indeed ! i have ordered one of those red seconds hand to put on a 6538 style build thought it would look cool with a matt dial !!!!
  12. Fantastic build ! i used this case for my black bay homage ! one question your bassy bezel is the one that came with the henenarou case ? i thought it was solid stainless steel also the t-19 did it fit easily on the helen case i wanted to replace my sapphire crystal with t-19
  13. Quote : I sell as is and i only refund if item is different than picture , I guest he has got it covered ,Right ? ,instead of saying i refund if item is not genuine rolex case .
  14. Hey georgloiz how about making me another one of your special pearls wanna put it on this deal !
  15. WHY DO I LOVE THE BIG CROWN SUBS PLANNING ANOTHER FANTASY BIG CROWN SUB USING A RED BIGDOT SECONDS HAND BUT WITH A VINTAGE LOOK
  16. Yes ! result a big negative never ever heat a dial i have ruined a few the heat lifts up the painted finish causing bubbling !!!!! :nono: :nono: :nono: :nono:
  17. I myself prefer to replace the rep movement with gen used eta movement from ebay for vintage watches i purchased 4 movements for 35usd shipped for me only way to guarantee gen movements , having said that i have purchased swiss eta reps and have had a few issues and purchased asian eta with no issues and keeping perfect time a few months ago i ordered a couple of ceramic rolex subs and went for the best swiss clone movements the one is perfect no issues keeps perfect time while the other has the famous clicking when winding by hand and very stiff crown also the movement was badly modded and damaged, the movement which is the heart of the watch is the only part not shown on so called QC photos i have had two times received a swiss eta watch with asian eta fitted we have to accept that these watches are replicas !
  18. Amazing ! Great collection and nice to see mild ageing i prefer instead of over the top ageing !!! !!!!
  19. The yuki 5513 looks good in there site photos !
  20. Thanks Freddy ! making a case look 50 years old is right up my allie !
  21. Thanks Guys for your replies much appreciated !!!
