  1. I have heard great things about him but I can't seem to get a hold of him to ask if he has time to build a datejust ii for me. Is there any way? As it appears is pm box is full
  2. I was wondering are most watches are able to be sourced? Because all the sites seem to have a low selection of DateJust II dials with Roman Numerals. I have reached out to Toro and he says nothing is available. I am looking for the dark blue or silver dial with Roman Numerals
  3. I was wondering if the new white ceramic offshore has been replied yet
  4. I was looking to get an AP. However, the thought of the untrustworthy second at 12 breaking down on me is putting me off. I hear of franken projects and such. I am more so interested in just switching out just the movement, as gen hands and dials are not TOO big of a concern for me at the moment. I've looked at forums and it appears that people use the Maurice Lacrox with a Dubois-Depraz module. So i was wondering how often can someone come across a movement like this and usually for how much? Plus i know it'll be really hard to find a watchsmith capable of the switch. But i would really prefer to have more peace of mind with a better movement
  5. I am interested in the http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=21_335&products_id=9078 and was wondering what the reliability on the a2836 with a mod at 6 is for a daily beater. i know mods at 6 tend to be ticking time bombs on the a7750, but i am not sure for the a2836. This one is a 25 jewel modded so i was wondering if this is more reliable and should run well.
  6. I've been looking at the calibre de cartier for the longest time and came across http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=21_335&products_id=9078 and it says modded with subdial at 6. How bad is this mod? is it a time bomb like the daytonas? but this isnt an a7750 mod but a 2836 mod. I came across an old thread saying that this mod isnt that harmful. But i know with all mods, they could be iffy. Can anyone provide input? Thanks,
  7. I found a watch maker who i will be meeting up with who says he's comfortable with repairing replica watches and can fix a7750 movements "with his eyes closed". However, i did not ask him about servicing. I assume that repair does not mean the same as servicing? Also, after i told him I had an AP second at 12 and tried explaining to him the situation. I am not quite sure if he understands that it's modded. Is there a huge change from a a7750and a modded sec@12 that would be quite different or would he catch on pretty quick? Thanks,
  8. Does anyone know anyone in Canada that could do work like him?
  9. Yes i am in Canada correct. Toronto to be exact. I can't even find anyone to service my watches. I already have an AP that stops moving at times even on my wrist. So let alone tourbillons. Trying to get as much info as i can
  10. I was thinking of getting a hublot tourbillon or a cartier de calibre tourbillon for daily wear for work and such. I was wondering since i hear it is really hard to find a good watchsmith that is good at working on rep tourbillions or servcing them. I hear a lot about servicing rep movements, but i havent seen much info about servicing tourbillons. I was wondering how long do they usually last with extended wear? or is this not reccomended? any advice is appreciated.
  11. I was wondering if using an unserviced a7750 AP as a daily beater is a viable or good idea. I am asking because I am from Toronto and I am having trouble finding anyone to service my watches. And I want to wear an AP daily. Also, my friend had a bad idea of putting his AP in a watch winder box and after a month his AP started losing time and occasionally the seconds got stuck at 30 seconds. Im afraid that wearing it everyday is like puttig it on a winder. I was wondering if anyone could help him as well. Thanks. All replies are welcome
  12. Hi, sorry to hijack the thread. But i was wondering where you toronto gta guys get your watches serviced thanks,
  13. Hi, i was wondering if anyone had connections or know of anyone capable of servicing an AP @ 12 in toronto or in the GTA it was running good for about 6 months and now it loses time and dies frequently although it still works. I have tried to PM the zigmeister as i heard he's based in Canada, but he has turned off his PM. So any help would be great as i would hate to have a dying watch. Thanks,
  14. I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions on an all black watch? I was leaning towards a hublot Bb, the hublot tourbillon, or an all black Rolex. However for the Rolex. I don't like how the face has so much writing on it on the all black Rolex. As for the Daytona's. Have their movements been modified or more reliable now? Thanks everyone
