No problem! I just read about it. The nostalgia guy sent a prototype to an rwi member to try out, and it worked

Z You know about Clark's new GMT bezel? It was designed to replace the loose fitting WSO bezel on these builds. They have talking about it over at rwi http://www.ebay.com/itm/230817937487?redirect=mobile

I like it. To my eyes it's nowhere the mess the new Rolex's with their supercase-ceramic-oversize-compete-with omega watches they have been cranking out. I don't like the deep sea either. Massive watch with puny band. These new Tudors at least are balanced looking.

Mines gen but the mid case

To be fair, Jmb offered to do something like Andy did. I just lost my mind while talking with Phong through emails and ended up buying the valve. Andy's looks great

Mine says hi

@sneed: you know you are always the exception buddy!

sneak peek

Looks great Z! The cg look like RA's work?

Thanks cougar!

The Ofrei pearl is pretty small. You might be able to install it on top of something you filled the hole with. Ofrei pearl is 2mm

Wow, nice watch! Thanks for the info

Moderate? LOL!

The adjuster stuff looks Dg

Those are the correct measurements...just gotta dig them out at Cousins. Someone will be along shortly that have ordered them from there

Cousins website is a mess to me. This is the part number and description from Ofrei's http://www.ofrei.com/page_155.html Rolex® 23-9291 Bars single shoulder, shoulder to shoulder is 19.63 mm, pivots 2.8 mm long, bar diameter is 2.0 mm, pivot diameter is 1.2

As far as I know, only the new ones have screw down crown and bezel lume. LHOOQ will know when they started it.

Don't be ridiculous. Most here have bought from Josh. I have probably a dozen from him over the last couple years.....never a problem.

I'd like to know too. Where are you guys getting these?

Yeah, I'm sitting here singing Joeys revision

No Andy, I see a big difference. Remember I own the same exact case and I know what the original looks like very well. It drove me crazy until I finally broke down and bought the Phong valve.

Unless your replacing the insert with a gen I don't think there's any point. You might consider just changing the pearl with a Watchmaterial pearl for an improvement. Use a dental pick or similar and pick at the pearl until you can get it out. To remove the whole insert, heat it up with a hair dryer softening the adhesive, then using the hole the pearl was in...just lift off the insert...very easy. I replaced the insert with a gen insert on this watch for a friend recently. The gen needed a tiny bit of sanding to fit.

Beautiful Andy, all that hard work has paid off. It looks very genuine. As for your hev work, that's a 100% improvement! Mine is with Jmb getting a Phong hev installed soon. Yours is a huge improvement! What crown did you install? On your wrist shot it looks very thin like a 702 Congrats and enjoy that fine SeaDweller.
