  1. G'morning one and all, I've always wanted a Speedmaster Professional with leather wrist similar to this one: I always stepped back from ordering one due to the incorrect spacing of the subdials. IIRC Josh stated some time ago that a new advanced version with proper subdial spacing is in the works ... anybody have any new information about that? Thanks a million Carl
  2. Guys, you rock! Thanks a heap! Now it's all clear to me and I obviously bought the wrong version of the watch, better luck next time ... I guess that's what they ment when they told me "you'll learn a lot in here kiddo"
  3. wich are worth millions for me n00b Thanks, guess I'm learning new things every day here! So case I'm willing to invest some bucks to replace the crappy rep movement (2813) with gen one, what's the gen equivalent I'm looking for? Is there a specific one ("Yes, B&R uses ETA XXXX in their gens") or is it a trial and error?
  4. I just received a BR03-92 from a trusted dealer here and was quite disappointed that it had the 2813 movement only (21.600bph) instead of the advertised 4813 (28.800bph movement), I got a credit towards my next order though I still like the smoother movement. - What are the costs of replacing the existing movement with a new Asian DG4813 (I got the tools, experience and an engineering degree and wouldn't mind swapping it myself) ... and first of all, where to get the movement from .. or even better, what's the ETA equivalent to the DG4813? - Which dealer sells the BR03 series with DG4813 as advertised? Thanks as always for your help!
  5. Partdon my ignorance ... what's Davidson and Little Hero?
  6. Same here, Andrew did an outstanding Job! Great communication, granted my special wishes (extra strap, ...), and always helpful!!
  7. As I wrote in my original topic: "(sorry ingenieur for borrowing your photos)" Should read thanks as well ....
  8. concepta told me he currently is low on gen dials ... just wondering if anyone knows where to get the smooth recess rep dial?
  9. quite ... the smooth recessed one (like the black above) is nearer to the old gen portus...t he difference wasn't noticeable on Andrews QC pics though ...
  10. Having just received my all black portu from Andrew, I compared it with other reps and sumbled upon this one: (sorry ingenieur for borrowing your photos) See the smoothly recessed subdials? ... comparing it to my gen 3714 that comes much closer to the gen. My rep now however appears to have a dial similar to this (imagine it in black) what's the deal here, what's everyones oppinions on the two different dials? Anyone know where to get that "more genuine looking" dial from? Thanks
  11. No, it's a rep dial. Check the 4 (curvier) and 6 (more bulky), also the unstamped numbers are a hint as are the thicker prints in the subdials.
  12. What's the average shipping time (via Andrew) from UK to Germany via registered mail?
  13. I asked the same thing some weeks ago. I went for Andrew (Trustedguy) as he ranks among the best out there, also Perfectclones is an excellent choice. Will have my rep modded by concepta later this year.
  14. I sent an email to Andrew this morning asking about a specific watch and received answer within hours ... so he is there!
