  5. Thanks, Hands are polished steel its just the picture hiding them. I have this strap in mined And I ordered this one. Here's a better shot of hands.
  6. Thanks for looking, I purchased from Perfect Clones, I was happy with the transaction.
  7. This is my new toy, what do you think? Don’t worry I can take the criticism.
  8. Hi all it's a long story so I won't get into it right now, but I need this gasket that goes into the Bezel ring. Can anybody help me with this problem? Been searching for Rolex parts but come up short. Its for a BP Sub-c
  9. Picked mine up from the Post Office today and, I must say it’s a Beauty. Checked the movement and all is working smooth, so I set the time and date. Next I resized the bracelet to fit my wrist. I then removed all the screws and replaced them using thread locker. Some were very loose, let it set for a couple of hours took the bracelet off and soaked it in White Lighting Clean Ride. That gives it a smooth feel, and takes care of all the squeaks. I received my QC Pictures on the 17th and received the watch on the 23rd great ship time. As soon as read how to post pictures again I’ll get them up. This was another great transaction with Joshua from Perfect Clones.
  10. Going to the post office this morning to pick mine, I'll post pic's later today.
  11. Watch looks great. I have the same watch been doing some also. Can you tell me where to source the Sunnyvdale crystal. Sent from my HTC One XL using Tapatalk 2
  12. After much reading I decided I wanted to start my own watch project. I chose the 42 mm Planet Ocean with a clone ETA movement to save a few dollars, as my watch project; it seemed to be the easiest to get parts for and would accept the parts without too much modification. So now to purchase my watch, I’ve bought reps from BK and Narikaa which by the way were excellent to deal with. I decided on Perfect Clone’s, set up an account selected watch and made the purchase. I didn’t get quality control pictures like others I saw but I was not worried for I knew I had picked a good dealer thanks to the folks on these forums, to many to list thanks guy’s, well the watch came in less than two weeks. I could not wait to get home with it so I unwrapped it at the Post Office set the time, date, wound it up twenty five to thirty turns and it started beating slapped it on my wrist. What a beauty black bezel with orange numerals. None of the rep defects bother me because I planned on putting in some gen parts anyways. About fifteen minutes later checked the time not really I just wanted to look at my new watch, but it had stopped running. It only ran for about ten minutes so I set time, date made sure it was wound and the rotor was spinning freely. Everything checked out but still the watch would only run for five to ten minutes at a time. So I contacted Josh he said he would replace it with no problem or I could have a local watch smith look at it, may be something simple to fix I agreed. Plus I didn’t want to go through shipping back read some bad stories on that subject. I dropped the watch off at the local watch smith that’s another story. After three weeks I went to the shop and he said he could not find anything wrong with it he didn’t charge me anything and said it ran fine. Well five to ten minutes later the watch was not running. I still did not want to send it back to Josh witch he was very professional to deal with and would have still replaced the watch. So I contacted Katt’s Watch Repair over at RWI made arrangements to send it off to Katt. Katt received the watch and emailed me with pictures of the problems with the movement he replaced the train bridge bent fourth wheel, balance wheel and [censored] and a missing movement clamp all within two weeks with testing, shipping great job Katt the watch is running and keeping excellent time. I forgot to mention that with all the time, date setting I stripped the rep tube treads but no worry, now the mods begin. You guessed it I’m starting with the gen crown and tube I think that is going to be the hardest for me because it is not a direct fit. Here is a picture of the gen crown and tube more to follow. Thanks Caleb PS: Thanks to everyone on these forums who are willing to share their experiences and knowledge without this I would never have gotten into this hobby.
  13. Yes, I agree josh is definitely a professional businessman. He will take care of a problem the best he can.
  14. Mojako I'mm starting the same project and I read you had some trouble with the He valve. Is the part number on R2D4's ref. guide the right one? Oh yes I like the leather strap can you tell me what ebay seller you purchased from.
  15. Yes I'm in contact with dealer now. Don't know if I want to go through the shipping back thing. I've read stories about that here.
  16. Yes seams to wind but I don't think its doing any good. If I ware it it will run untill I stop moving. When there's no movement thats when it stops after a few minutes. Thanks I won't get offended by questions.
  17. His email and site are down . I purchased watch with the intentions of modding anyway, But didnt want to start out with new movement.
  18. Just received my new 42 mm Po today. Watch will only run for about 5 to 10 minutes then stops. Please help Bought from a trusted dealer here also.
  19. I hope mine don't come this way. Ordered from PC march fourth and never got QC pics. Now I received tracking number and watch is on its way. Now what?
  20. Thanks for the reply I'll try contacting BK
