My dearest friend aero...i wouldn't agree less n u have my YES 4 a new section about tudors. This brand should b separated from rolex area just because...n that's my humble opinion...the use of eta movements on most fine projects is much closer to the gen tudor itself. Here r my fantasy tuds saying hello to all. Fantasy yes, but fantastic on t wrist.Hey stanislas...does this no guard remind u of something? I wonder who stole who's idea for a ceramic bezel insert...LOL Believe me man...this project was finished 4 months ago n i saw your's just minutes ago...wow! ...great work

Ahahahahahahahaha.....haha :Jumpy:your ol lady apparently has a natural taste of humour or...she knows u very well ...but she is not far from t truth. Imagine that poor watch how will look like after a mile of dragging but go no further.Just roll over it a couple of times n see what turns out Oh...don't leave t movement in ...u ll go like this -

Hey AEROMATIC...very good comparison pics even without wearing spectacles... they came out quite ok. Thanks 4 your reference 2 my efforts 4 building this project...don't forget man...i'm always here 4 u. Being out 4 too long, but always interested on other members projects...i must say that many guys out there r real masters of t kind! BRAVO!!! Anyway...i ll try 2 put some of my own project pics in due time. Cheers 2 all -
Wow man...now,that's a tool watch and it came right out of the blue just by changing that bezel.I know...the rest was just bench work but without this change the watch would have stayed unfinished. Great work!

Great pics...one on top of t other is t best showing t thickness of each one.That lence in front of camera is a saviour.My thanks to the bus company too,that has been so altruistic.Who knows...mabe someday they 'll donate a whole bus n make a LABORGINI out of it

VDB`s Franken Rolex Deep Sea Special Project
George Loiz replied to VDBroucke's topic in The Rolex Area
Super project...im sure AEROMATIC loves it already.Have u ever thought of installing a bezel like the 6538 JB model but thick,say...5mm hight...no matter if u break the replicating rules...just to see what comes out.Im sure that it will look superb.By looking at it,u think that's something's missing,like the bezel fell off.Anyway...great job! -

Rolex sub rep bezel insert hung out in the sun
George Loiz replied to aeromatic's topic in The Rolex Area
Hello TJ...got t meaning. OK then...ill get a tin box,falf fill it with sand,put a dozen of sharp edged stones,put my 5517 rep in,firmly close it... n give it a hell of a shake hoping that barbecue was not t best idea for fading a watch -
Wow man...i just love vintage "no dates".U have a jewel on your wrist.Is it really a MBW? I must have one!!!

Rolex sub rep bezel insert hung out in the sun
George Loiz replied to aeromatic's topic in The Rolex Area
...guys..guys...what r u trying to do? Whom r u trying to fool by scratching your reps with sandpapers knives brillos and stones...or baking or throwing from t balcony...(yes AEROMATIC it's me again,your guardian angel).The only one u fool...is your selves first n then all t others..(well...not all of them).Let your timekeepers age naturally n physically,n let em remind u...not only what time is...but olso the memories of each scratch.Start writing your own story on your watches by wearing them everyday n all times n don't mind where u hit em.The most hilarius of all,was that guy who baked t bezel with some cookies...well man...next time make some barbecue to age your dial n tell us what happened -
Hey Crab...thanks for liking my work.Like AEROMATIC said,those are reps n cost no more than $300 but once having a good case and the knowledge of tools n machinery the rest is a piece of cake...and a yammy one.Pics speak for themselves but on the wrist...it's a whole different story.Thanks again

Thank u GAVIDOC...it's really a pleasure to hear from people all over the world that appreciate your work,even not being tasteful to them but being openminded like u. Thanks again

...by the way AEROMATIC...who is hammering who?

Any time AEROMATIC but...to be safe...wear your antiradioactive suit...just in case...oh...bring your voodoo doll n some pins n nails to cast out bad spirits...u know what i mean
-
I hate dates...(not the fruit,not dating women)...but date windows on diving watches.They happen to destroy the whole appearance of the dial...besides...who wants to know what date is...37 meters under water, when the only thing that matters down there, is the 40 minutes of oxygen that support you from not dying from asphyxiation. Take my word...i know.Thats why i build my own timekeepers with simple,good vision,well read under water dials...ETA movements and extra gasketing.Good reps have eccellent cases so...it's not the case,it's the sealing that counts.Give my regards to CRAB who liked my work.Thank u 2...AEROMATIC

Hey AEROMATIC man your rolly is eccellent..(yeah..tell me about it).I have a few good replicas myself that i fully modified to better water resisting n better looking rolexes.I am a big lover of vintage rollys but..like u said,u have to mortgage your house to get a beauty like the one u r wearing.If u r wondering who is sending this..........IT'S ME MAN...
