May be the photos. I just compared a few and it looks pretty spot on to me but you may be right. I am no expert.

More pictures added

Link? PM me if you don't want to disclose publically.

I have one for sale as well if you are interested.

XWORD,

I think my comment is based on when I purchased the watch about a year ago. Now the chrono is 1:1.

Nice....torn between this and the chrono version.

I was torn as well but with the chrono not being 1:1 I went for this one.

Seems as if I only post pictures of my pieces when getting ready to sell but anyways here are some nice shots for you all to enjoy

This is the Santos 100 that Joshua sells with the boxes. I upgraded the strap to this one from eBay which I am extremely pleased with (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Alligator-Band-Strap-for-Cartier-Santos-XL-23mm-/160776560587?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item256f079fcb#ht_1905wt_1163). It is right up there with the HKtan straps I have seen.

Sadly I sold it yesterday. It was a beautiful watch but the collection needs to slim down a bit according to the boss

What ever became of this rumor? Are there still talks about a 1:1???

I just realized I never posted pictures of my AP Safari so here they are. Offered it up for sale to someone but after snapping these photos I am having second thoughts!

Here is what was done to it:

Francisco Movement

Service and Regulation by Spinmaster

HK Tan Hornback

Case Repolish

Contact pbdad he did the work on my milgauss (see sales thread). It really transforms the watch.

As soon as I receive it I'll post pics.

1: Start with trimming the insides and see how it looks. It's easy to go to far if you don't check your progress often.

2: Yuki's riveted here. Or the folded I mentioned here.

Thank you.

Will the 2mm springbar fit these?

Ok so:

1) trim the CG's

2) new bracelet

Now can anyone tell me which is the bracelet that would fit this 5513 w/o having to mod the end links? If you have links I would appreciate it. I am a noob to these vintage pieces. I prefer a riveted bracelet...

Keep the suggestions coming

I actually like this riveted bracelet but I will look into Yuki's...

Any further mods needed immediately? CG's look alright?

As the title states I just purchased this modded MBW 5513. What do you guys think?

I haven't received it yet so these pics are from the seller.

Specs according to sales post:

MBK 5513 from Reg (Narikaa)

Modded by PBDAD (vintaged dial, case, pearl, cartel riveted bracelet with 2mm springbar mod, 2mm lug holes, crown tube install)

Yuki parts (gen crown and tube, yuki pearl)

Gen-like service crystal mod and Water sealed by a known local watchmaker (tested it on my 2.5 ft fish tank)

Found the end links and clasp now i just need the bracelet...anyone have a lead on one?

One of mine...

Dumb question but what is VRF?

Hey Guys,

As the title says I am looking for some leads on a 78360 bracelet and 558 end links. It can be rep or gen and I prefer the date just type clasp.

Thank you!

Woke up feeling like a Tank today but incredibly too lazy to set the date and time...

Just picked this one up from tabularasa415...1:1

This is my first AP and I am a bit confused on the deployment fitment. Does this look right?

I have a small wrist and if I adjust it to the 2nd to last hole on the strap the deployment ends up almost hitting the case...

HELP please

I'll take one.

I almost pulled the trigger on this one...glad I didn't as I have no experience on these fixes/mods!

I wallow it will fit but does anyone know the actual length of the rep straps?
