I saw some talk a while back about a new 1-1 strap coming around January from Andrew, anybody know anything about this?

I had one of those and much better luck with mine, it ran like a top. I still regret selling it. What ever happened to Adam?

Very useful!

Has anyone heard more about this 1-1 strap?

Very nice collection, thanks for sharing. I can't believe you have 1,000 posts, it just seems like yesterday that people were giving you grief about your avatar when you joined!

Thanks for the review, it was great, nice watch! BTW, I'll take the The-Rapists for a 1000 Alex...

I would go so far as to say this is not just for noobs, I know I could be reminded of some of these facts more frequently.

My history:

I got into reps back in sophmore year (1995)....

That is a really cool story, thanks for sharing.

I have the version like yours, but I did a lot of mods to mine (Case aging, lugs drilled, springbar swap and dial aging). I have been meaning to get some pics posted but haven't got around to it yet...

I am very sorry to read this I hope you come back soon. I have followed your work and postings on 2 boards now and this announcement breaks my heart! I had a MBW 16610 in need of a relume, now I guess it will never get it...

Thank you that was amazing!

My WM 1675 with lots of mods...

If it is the black dial version, I'll buy it from you. I am looking for some parts for my MBW...

I just saw this, thanks!

WOW, very eye opening!

Nice tutorial, thanks!

What an interesting story!

Fantastic write up, thanks for taking the time!

I have ordered three times from him and transactions were perfect. No complaints.

Same here for me, 2 orders, no problems...

yt74: is your sub a noobmariner? The insert mod works for MBW and cn subs. The noob has a slightly smaller diameter, ~.996" vs. ~1.001" on the cn sub. You probably need to sand the perimeter a little.

Nope, MBW 16610...

Get a replacement insert from JeweleryOut for $10 + $5 shipping. Mill off the ridge on the back like this

First off, great post, secondly I tried this mill to snap in mod with a sub insert and I couldn't even get close. At one point it got kind of close to snapping in, but then nothing. I was very careful about trying after every single filing rotation. I am beginning to think you guys saying this can be done are pulling out chains!

No springs on these bezels, it's all pressure fit. BTW, I thought I had too many beers when I looked at your pics!

Mine says on the bag:

29-325-10-I

FOR ROLEX 29-32

5-10

I don't remember where I got it from, but may be it'll help you somehow...

Thank you, I appreciate it!

Get out your micrometer and measure the diameter and the width of the groove for the gasket. Order that size

If I had one I would have done that...
