  1. Hey Doc, I would be interested to see what kind of set up they use, mine also sits pretty well mid click also. Its not some thing that bothered me and at this stage wont be pulling mine apart, was just thinking out loud.

    Thanks for the info :)

  2. Thanks for the nice comments guys.

    @docblackrock

    Yea its a 1942, I have not done anything to it though I did leave it out in the back yard for a week when I first got it.

    Another strap that gets a great patina is the gabo ones, they start off quite pale but darken over time (will look great with a pvd) I should have some pics of before and after if you want.

    @Finepics

    Thanks might give it a go.

    The bracelet is from a old abay sub I picked up about two years ago on trc that was broken, so it has been used for parts and practice. I know alot of people dont like the hollow bracelets but I like it on this one, feels very well balanced.

    I have been thinking about redoing the case like yours as I really like the rounded edges.

  4. Thanks for the nice comments guys, it has gen insert, t39 sd, crown and tube. I have drilled out the lug holes, did a little work on the crown guards and changed the bracelet to a hollow link one.

    Its was purchased from maria and has been at this stage for a good while and a keeper for sure.

  5. The gen crown will not fit on a rep tube so you will have to change the tube also. The modern sub I have has a smaller diameter hole in the case for the tube so the hole would need to be drilled out and retaped, not sure if this is the case with all moderns though (my vintage one was a direct swap). Rember The Zigmeister saying some were just a swap but if I remember correctly they were not a TW case.
