Without a dial spacer ring it looks like the A2836-2 could fit the case. Stem and tube align pretty exact.

So the 2846 sounds reasonable. I can get them NOS from Switzerland at around $90 - which doesn't sound so bad right?

Anyone can chime in which are the best aftermarket DJ hands?

I've seen the one from Clarks and some other Ebay seller:

Also, what is the gen reference # of the plexi? 

Thanks in advance

I got a gen 1601 case with gen smooth bezel.

I was wondering which slow beat ETA would fit the case?

Moreover the dial size is 27.8mm correct?

Thanks in advance!

Spare DG3804? Anyone?

Then it is pad printed.

Don't know sure about serif, it is very hard to see. Maybe the pics tell you more.

Thanks mate, appreciated!

I'll get one too

Dutchy,

is the dial print 3D padded or flat printed?

Thanks

Do I need to call you guys a Whaaaaambulance?

Any updates here?

I usually drive to the countryside, take the watch, pour a bit of gasoline on it, set it on fire and throw it into the biggest and deepest lake there is.

Then I take out my COMEX diving suit and start the hunt. Bought it on VRF from some French guy at a bargain...Most of the time I'm wearing an old Noob Sub from Neil, so I don't stay in the water too long. Bezel is turning splendidly, but the lume sucks.

It takes me 6-7 hours to locate the watch on the bottom of the lake, which apparently is the exact amount of time the dial needs to turn tropical...try it yourself if you don't believe me....

Meow!

There is no UK in CONUS is there?

You know, some people don't have the time to answer every PM or to post threads where they [censored] and moan about people who don't answer their PM's...

I'll think. He trying to rip you off. He can do sh*** to report Visa! What he wants to say. I bought an Fake Rollie or AP?! Whats the Name of this Guy?

Are you really Lionel Messi?

Well, since y'all talk about it.

I aged the case to look like a well cared case with tropical dial. You'll see similar samples at the passion all the time.

Thats how the case looks on a close up:

I bet it's A1 Steak Sauce!

Damn!

Nothing can get past your sharp eagle eyes M!

Flex I've sent you a PM. I'm definitely interested!

MM translate to a V72 subdial and dial feet layout!

Mine is still at Rolexaddict's place....

I'd be in for a 1016 dial too

Spectacular! 

In all sorts of things...modding, painting, but most of all those photos....Stunning!

Okay boys, we need to start a "Bribe Akira" pool. 

 

Everyone chip in some cash and we'll finally see how he gets that great tropical look!

Nanuq, is there a specific dial you need to be tropicalized? 

Thanks for the kind words all around.

Ogladio is a true gent and pleasure to work with!

Thanks Freddy,

much appreciated!

Hi guys,

could I see some photos of Phongs "Ref and Serial" engravings?

Preferably from Subs (5512, 5513, 1680 or 1665)  I've seen the Daytona engravings, but never from Subs...

I'm interested to see how they compare to Yuki and Gen engravings.

Thanks,

Akira
