Cool news! Hmmm, now I can finally get a correct bezel for my 7032. Good ol DW.

Fantastic work sir, I eagerly await phase III.

I'm with you By-Tor, swapped out my insert for a fresher looking Pepsi today

Yikes, Ditto! Good eye Ubi.

Exp II today

Superb work as always VDB, that looks amazing!

Good to hear from ya R! You're sorely missed... Great news on your recovery! Take care!

Kicking off the week with this:

Tasty Cubeistan! Pre-A 009 for Sunday on a Vintager Strap

Nice sneak peek Donerix and great photos too!

Lovely and rare watch! Wear it well Richie29.

Milsub for Sat: Tomorrow:

The only decent 5517 insert (with 60 minute tick markers) I know of is from Classicwatchparts. As for the bezel assembly you'll need will depend on what your base watch is for the 5517. If its close to a genuine construction such as an MBW than the bezel assembly Yukiwatch sells should work. Can you tell us more about the base watch you're using?

For Fri:

A very nice gift J, I'm sure your wife will enjoy it!

Completely agree B -I always enjoy your photos Chief! 16750 for me today

Mossanti, I'm not here to debate the popularity of the Orange Hand, its polarizing to say the least with peoples feeling about the watch. My 2 cents; if you like the watch for whatever reason then you should get it, you're the one wearing it and should only be your opinion that matters. There are no good 1655's out of the box. Please click on the link in my signature line for more about my own modded piece. I will say that there is some buzz about more vintage Rolex models coming out of China soon and the 1655 may be in the lineup. You may want to hold and see what comes onto the market. Good luck on your journey either way. Here is a closeup of mine to give you an idea of what can be done with mods and several doner watches mixed and matched.

Beautiful Burnz, congrats!

Thanks for the compliment Red! It's circa 1991.

16570 back on an Oyster today...

A little tropical twist on my 1665 for Saturday Sunday

"Well, I'm a mushroom-cloud-layin' [censored], [censored]! Every time my fingers touch brain, I'm Superfly T.N.T., I'm the Guns of the Navarone!" -Jules Winnfield, Pulpfiction

Thanks for all kind comments guys! Nylon straps sure are comfy.

I don't blame you B! Running with this combo again today:

CH, the photo you posted from NDT is not a genuine Bond Sub, it's a frankenstein watch -the movement is probably the only gen item in the watch. Check out Vintage Rolex Forum for better comparisons.
