  1. @ Chief, do you have some pics from the back of the watch?
  2. yepp, you can get them on ebay... Just glue them on the existing datewheel... Fits good... Hope this helps...
  3. Great work Chief, this one looks fantastic.... I think you can change the datewheel with a gen one... The Noobmarinerwhheel is good but the datefont is too big... Than its a perfect masterpiece...
  4. You are missing the point. The datewheels are not perfect. Far from it. I have handled 4 genuine 1680's and have hundreds of detailed photographs of many more. The datewheels I received have jagged edges to all the dates. So much so it made my MBW 1680 look like a cheap New York rep. The datewheel I had previously was from Luenfat from Ebay and apart from no flat 3's looks a million times better, so I will be leaving that on. Now, either I received 2 faulty ones, or they are all like that and consequently not suitable for a 1680. You may get away with it on a 1665 but, personally, I would rather have the one that's on mine already, so I won't be installing one. I don't really care for the material, although a metal disc would be more durable, all I wanted was a product fit for purpose which these clearly are not. Sorry you don't like criticism but even Tribal says they are not too good for a 1680 but Ok for his 1665. I have higher standards and expectations. Lets see what other members think when they start installing theirs.
  5. After i have finished my 1680,the white SD is done too... Here we go Comments are welcome
  6. You are right on the 1680,but in real it looks not much blurred... It doesn`t bother me.... On the Sd it looks perfect...
  7. Thank you all... But on the 1680,you must lift up the Dial a little bit,and put the sticker directly to the existant datewheel... randy told me to coat the sticker with a lttlebit of water,so there is more room to adjust the sticker... Thanks to all envoled in this project,that makes the vintag beautys perfect...
  8. Today...
  9. Blurry pics,but who cares
  10. Great watch
  11. Tribal

    Gen or Rep

    YM fake,datejust seems to be gen,but hard to tell from this pics...
  12. Nice one... I have a gen Tudor Sub....
  13. I must degree,first gen Tube and crown... You can install a gen 3315 Datewheel... Biggest thing a better case with deep Rehaut and thick saphir...
  14. Fantastic Count me in for two..... That ones make my vintages perfect...
  15. Thats fantastic Randy, thats the best Daytona i've seen..... Best Franken ever... Fantastic
  16. ME too, need two of them or four......or ten
  17. Does Rolex still manufacture the Tudor cases... or are they completely independent company these days?
  18. Thank you.... no gen Dial because good ones are hard to find and when they are good, they too expensive... I think this one is the best Rep dial out there in the moment... Maybe sometimes i can catch a gen for a good price...
  19. Not my cup of tea,but thats only my taste.... I have an old Tudor Submariner 79190 with Rolex marked Case and crown... I don`t like the newer modells...
  20. Ok,thanks for reply... I realized the update but haven't seen that the friends all gone...
  21. All in all, it might be easier to order Paul's "Perfect Sub" for $149 plus whatever it costs you to get the money to Paul- WU, bankwire, Moneybookers....
  22. Hy Supporters,my friendlist is gone... What happend
  23. Thanks for the link @ Randy and Chief, there is only the 16800.. Than the Sub collection is complete... By the way, i want to see pics of your beauty Chief...
  24. Thanks, the lume on the hands are not so good as on the Dial,but they work... Do you have a link for the hands? The insert is an old spare rep Insert,just to become a feeling of the look when its finished..
  25. Hi Guys, here is an other Frankenproject The case is an older MBW-Case without Lugholes... I installed a gen Tube and Crown on it. The Dial is changed with a better one also the datewheel... For the pics i took a spare bezelinsert but must be installed a gen one The barcelet is a SEL with hollow midlinks.. Ok enough of words,here some pics.. Not finished yet Comments are welcome
