Here's some old stuff thrown together:

Aaarrrrg, I spy me booty Capt'n!

I'm heading to Canal street with the gang on Thursday. Maybe I can pick you up something

An easy solution to the "brushed" appearance is to simply leave it alone. Early silver datewheels were not brushed (MK1) Later models & service replacements (MK2) had the bright "brushed" look Final service replacement versions (MK3) where white

Nice 5514 freddy Is that a flat T-19? PS: love the HEV!

Hi What2, I hate to break this to you, but IMO, none of the reps are close enough to orig without some serious modding. Good luck with your quest. There's a lot to learn here. After hours and hours of searching, you may get bitten by the same bug many of us have, and begin building a super franken

Here's a nice example:

I've got an extra gen silver 1570 date wheel

Wow, very clever! Congrats on a terrific idea

Thanks Ronin James and his 550 Very sweet. I can only imagine what a thrill it must have been to drive that nimble machine

Like a Series 1 E-Type, a California Spyder, or a Duntov Vette, I'm sure past and present owners of mechanical icons such as these felt much the way I did today when I held my latest acquisition in my hands. This specific model watch has undoubtedly carved a niche into watch history that few have rivaled. The watch I'm talking about is the venerable red-letter Submariner. After years of searching, and watching the prices of these gens skyrocket into the stratosphere two years ago, these models are finally coming down into the range where beginner collectors such as myself can venture out and invest. This particular watch caught my eye, with a dial and matching hands that are simply superb. This is an early "feet first" watch, with a 2.9 mil serial that puts production near 1970, making this timepiece nearly forty years old. The crown and tube are original 7020 early trip-loc A curious mis-spelling on the bracelet ..and the details of the dial that simply have never been duplicated! Finally, the 9315 bracelet and T127

I've still got a new ubi datewheel if anyone might be interested

Welcome aboard! Glad to hear you found us before getting scammed

Very nice! Is that brand spankin new?

This has been well known, and discussed ad-infinitum on various gen forums, bond forums, and rep forums. It's been in the film forever, with some saying years ago that it was a mistake due to the technicolor process.

Yikes! That is awesome D! Finding everything to put that together has got to be a hundred times harder than finding the parts for one of my rollies Enjoy, and wear in good health! JJ

Looks great! Congrats to the owner and the builder; wear it well and enjoy

Thanks for posting up! Great wristshot! I'm still considering it
