  1. On the classic SSDs (not the BP or superlumed Ultimates) is there a way to remove the bezel without damaging it or the insert? I don't think these pop out like gens do, correct? Thank you for the help!!
  2. Catch and release. It will eat at you!
  3. LH, thanks. Daytona -check Submariner -check Explorer - still thinking... But these pics certainly don't help the addiction.
  4. I have had 2 MBWs both with faux HEVs. One was an obvious tell while the other, I couldn't tell. I guess it depends on your particular watch and your tolerance for such things.
  5. Lovely watch! The 1016 is the watch I keep flirting with, the smaller size being a concern. Can someone post a pic next to a Sub? I have an 1803 which I find on the smallish side. Half way though the day, I get used to it. Thanks
  6. What is it with these 1016's? One is never enough???
  7. Life is indeed full of surprises. It's best to enjoy it while you can while always keeping a little reserve for the many bumps.
  8. I think these "watch makers" don't realize the value of our watches. Most people think "canal street $25." I had a similar experience. I was referred to someone locally a few years ago. I handed him 2 watches. I only wanted water pressure testing. He understood these were reps (a MBK 1665 with gen crystal and insert and BK GMT II with gen Pepsi insert). He said to come back the next day. I said okay. He took both watches and just tossed them into a drawer! I said to be careful. He answered they were not real. I said they are as real as the shitty watches he sold in his shop and cost twice as much if not more. I took my watches and left. Best solution is to use the modern here. There is risks, shipping, etc... But sometimes, that's all we have.
  9. Check out Bergies's section. You might find some reviews there on this particular bag.
  10. My issue has always been the incorrect hand stack or way-to-big LEC on the crystal. That's why i went gen on this model.
  11. Did you have to brush them? His come polished,
  12. Posting is gone. It was your typical Zenith movement + Daytona dial project parts.
  13. http://www.network54.com/Forum/207673/thread/1375122915/FS+-+16520+project I love the first (and only one at this time) comment.
  14. I had a WM9 two-tone sitting in a beautiful box. First time I took it out, I noticed it had tarnished. Put it back in the box and a couple of weeks later, I took out and more tarnish! I was shocked!! I cleaned it with some product I forget the name and since then, I keep that watch in a Rolex green pouch. Have never seen a spec of tarnish on it since. Strangely, I think it was the box!
