    My first 6538

    Nice job, but yes it looks like a T39 on there. A T17 profile should look like this:
  5. Don Pepin Garcia Cuban Classic Robusto
  6. Very nice choices today guys! 16750 for me:
  7. I'd say a J&W Nanuq. Case looks too thick to me, shape of the ax hands are off, the dial -bleck!, aftermarket T39, case is way too new (granted I can't read Italian and if the listing says NOS) and the insert sucks.
  8. That's a beauty sir! Great dome to the crystal.
  9. Great work JMB, as usual! The Tudor caseback is not only flat but a different shape, the teeth are actually channeled into the caseback unlike the 5513 where its stepped -if that makes sense. Higho's photo shows it well, I also took a quick side by side shot of my gen 7016 next to my 5517.
  10. I was quite happy with the results on this one. I found polishing it after the bleaching with a cap code lightly gave it some shine. Many gen you see with a natural patina will be faded but still have some gloss to the insert, unfortunately when you bleach one it strips off the glossy finish. But there's still nothing like natural aging....
  11. How are ya sir? Long time! ;-)

  12. Many of you have the same sentiments that I do -a bit saturated, bored, or have most of what I want. On another hand, I've stayed away on some levels as well since I'm trying to curb my watch spending and this place is a bad influence for me... I found lately that I gravitate to a handful of watches and many sit in the watch box. Perhaps a thinning of the herd is in order. Maybe collectors of all sorts hit this funk or point where their passion wanes. I've been giving thought to primarily fine tuning some pieces I haven't been 100% happy with and just spend some time with the friends I've made here and missed from my long RWG vacation.
  13. Really nice results Donerix!

    -S

  17. Hello RWG'ers! been away for a long time..... I hope all is well with everyone. Wearing this old thing today And tomorrow
  18. It would have to be PAM's for me. I liked them back in the Pre V days, I thought they were unique, huge but not necessarily for me -until trying one...
  19. To be festive -a hint of red today
  20. Fantastic Grifter and kudos to PBdad for his work! Boy, my old franken 1655 looks like crap compared to the options out there now.
  21. Nice choice today sir! We think alike...
