  1. No offense to Stafano, but I am pretty certain the crown is a 24-5.30 Compare to my gen-cased 6536/1 with 6mm crown -
  2. I have a Twist-O-Flex on my Accutron & it looks great, but I do not think it works on a luxury watch like a Rolex, especially an iconic luxury watch like the Daytona. But different strokes..
  3. Overall, I like what you did, but the early Subs had smaller (24-530, 5.50mm) crowns. Here is a gen for reference -
  4. Nice work. I would go with a Daytona next.
  5. I believe it was only the initial, 1st run that received the white seconds hands.
  6. Realize that we are not experienced in EU trademark law & the proper course would be to speak to a lawyer who does specialize in EU trademark law. So take all responses with a grain of salt. That said, I would ditto Cornerstone's comments. Generally, it is not worth their lawyers' time to pursue a single person over a relatively small value. They really want to go after dealers & others who import large quantities of counterfeit goods. For the 'small fish' like you, they assume you do not have a lawyer, so 1 or 2 scary letters are often enough to get people to pay. If you do not pay, they may try sending a 2nd or 3rd letter before moving onto the next target. & like Cornerstone said, best not to post documents &/or personal or identifiable information online.
  7. Nice work.
  8. The OYSTER printing looks a bit funky & (from this angle) there does not look to be much depth in the subdials, but other than that, it looks good.
  9. Still wearing my Aryan 'Master
  10. Ditto panerai153. Anyone who followed my Phase II 6542 travails knows what a long, winding & (unexpectedly) expensive road finding a handful of small parts for vintage Rolex calibres can turn out to be. But if you have more time/money than sense or have the (financial) ability to plant a forest to find a few special trees, it might be worth it in the end.
  11. Looks real sharp.
  12. Ditto Automatico.
  13. You can say that again.
  14. I am not a big fan of two-tone (I am referring to the metals, not the mod), but, other than that, it looks delicious. Where are the movement pics though?
  15. I think tourbillons are technically interesting, but, as a rule, I do not like to see them on a dial face. Better hidden on the backside or within the case.
  16. Yes, I suspect that would do the trick.....unless you missed of course.
  17. Any web URL (address) that begins with 'https' (note the 's') instead of 'http' is encrypted, which means the characters you type into the page are coded in such a way that they cannot be read by someone who may have hacked in between you & the website. This helps to protect your personal information.
  18. Makes sense.
  19. Overall, the new layout looks nice, but I would prefer if pinned articles on the index pages appeared (more) differently than the new content.
  20. You guys with your lever-action plinkers...... If you really want to 'test' a watch properly, you need a 12-ga or, at least, a .30-06. And good to see you chambering around these parts again, TJ!
