I have a gold dial, not nipple but I'm looking for a way to use it.

Your killin me Speed! Really nice job and nice watch !

When you hit the "buy' button, there are two options and it calculates price

It has an option for either a "pearl" auto or and eta for a little more money. I was thinking a guy could add a better pearl and relume it and do a little ageing.

I'm sure several of you have seen this one on eBay, but id only seen the black no gard sub he sells. First thing I thought when I saw it was Jmb's recent Tudor It might make an easier start on the new Tudor Black bay For 120$ or so you'd get a lot of the parts to do it. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Auto-Watch-Gilt-Dial-Big-Crown-Sub-Red-Bezel-Gold-Snow-Flake-Bracelet-ETA-Case-/190686591164?pt=Wristwatches&var=&hash=item2c65ce78bc

The sub

Yeah! I missed this one

I'd love to see a rep of this watch too. Jmb made one that came out pretty cool.

Woot!

Love the canvas E I ordered a few awhile back after I saw some on the military watch forum. Yours really looks great!

I wouldn't do anything that can't be put back 100% I probably wouldn't do anything other than efforts to restore it.

Yes, just like those reality tv shows "storage wars" people buy them.

bpolo...just wait till you get it regulated I'm sure TC will take care of your sel problem. Keep in mind he's crazy busy and popular right now. Until he came along recently the Wm9's had dried up and a really long wait for a Bk watch. People were selling their used BK's and Wm9's for crazy prices. I'm amazed TC is as fast as he is right now. I ordered my bracelets and dials recently and had them in a week.

Mines just the regular V2

I'd say wait till TC gets back and contact him. He will take care of it. And yes, it's amazing how well an ETA movement runs. Most of mine run like yours is running

As promised, off work and here's a couple pictures The sel's sit high, higher than most reps but not a bad thing for me. There's probably .5 to 1mm below the lug edge. The feeling is solid and tight. I was suprized at how tight it was installing and my old style 2mm bars locked right in.

Can you take a good close up of the endlink fit? Have you compared yours to others or gens?

Just gotta be persistent. For a new one in packaging I agree with your price. The one I referred to above, I hadn't even looked at but I was familar with the seller. I have purchased several not new but 95% from 55$-100$ on eBay, TRF and VRF. The cheapest one at 55$ did not have a mark or blemish on it. The price included shipping, the seller was in Greece and I had it in a week. They are out there, you just have to devote a week or two in finding them.

No idea how it happens but...I bought TC's Sub and SD bracelets and installed both last night. One on my MBW 16610 and the other on my SSD. They both matched up and fit perfectly. I'm really impressed with TC's products. I realize what your asking, and I'm sure it's hit or miss to a point, but both these bracelets fit better than the originals. Not even speaking to the quality being so much better too.

At work right now, can't take pics till tonight. I bought both bracelets and installed both SD and Sub. Mine sit high on both, not too high mind you..but higher than usual and look very good. Really solid. Since they both do it, I don't think you will gain anything trying the sub version ? I'll post pics later.

There's a gen insert on rwi right now for 95$ Congrats on your new sub!

TC SeaDweller bracelets have polished sides, he has two different bracelets. Sub and SD and both have the correct features. They also use 2mm bars. Yes the original bracelet that came on the SSD is nice, but TC SD bracelet is a level better in fit and finish. Heres a link to the SeaDweller bracelet http://tc-submariner.blogspot.com/2012/05/39-tc-93160a-rolex-sea-dweller-16600.html?m=1
