  1. UPDATE: - Noob-Bracelet Endlinks - gen style springbars
  2. I opened this thread, because some people think the modern MBW sub has a too big date-mag and the rehaut is to deep. One of these watches is my modern MBW with gen parts, the other is gen. So what do you think? Thanks for looking...
  3. The date-mag is not contingent on the rehaut. From four different factory watches you have also different cyclops! IMO the WM9 rehaut is not deep enough. The old MBW modern case with holes in the lugs has the best rehaut. Like I said, that's in my opinion. But the WM9 is still one of the best out there...
  4. The red font is OK. About the color we can discuss...try the google-search and you will have hundrets of maches, then you can make your own decision about it.
  5. I tend to gen. The pic is not the best...
  6. I think so... ...like this: http://cgi.ebay.de/erbstueck-rolex-getrage...1QQcmdZViewItem Or this nice baby (but the guy says in the description that it is a rep): http://cgi.ebay.de/ROLEX-Nachbildung-OYSTE...1QQcmdZViewItem You want more? http://cgi.ebay.de/Fuer-Bastler-original-R...1QQcmdZViewItem This hits are found after five minutes of search!
  7. There is nothing to work, only to adjust. It's really a very easy fix...
  8. OK, maybe there are people who can do it, but all I've holded in my hands had a matt finish, and not shiny! You don's see that from 1 meter, but by closer looking... But I will think about it, to order C1 and try a job on a noob-dial...
  9. Thanks my friend. I am not a friend of reluming modern dials! I owned a couple of month ago a TT Sub with relumed dial (and also other models). It's OK in the dark, but by looking on sunshine at the dial a lume-job is visible! The noob-dial has a good lume IMO. Not perfect, but for a non-diver (like me) it's perfect...
  10. And the best pic deserved a new post, IMO:
  11. Thanks for the nice comments to all! Like promised, here a few pics more...
  12. Thanks to all... I bought the watch with that crystal mounted, the crown is very hard to catch with your eyes! Sorry for the dust...
  13. Thanks! More pics I will add in next days, promised!
  14. Send it to me, I can rescue it! You have only to take the choice what it should be - Daytona or Yachtmaster???
  15. Thank you, Sir. I hope so, 'cause it's made with love...
  16. I think this is the most unimpeachable method:
  17. Thanks! I am sure you will see it... Take more: The MBW is (according to previous owner) about 4 years old. I really don't know what generation it is, because on the last gen (like Paso's) is the date mag too big. On this one it is correct. So I can't assign it... Bracelet is from silix with hollow midlinks, outer clasp is OK but the inner was incorrect stamped. So I used the inner parts from a clasp that I found in my part-case. Of course with all correct numbers and very clean logo-stamp. At last but no least, what I forgot: The bracelet is also brushed and polished to have a shiny finish like gen...
  18. Oh, I forgot that the bezel is reworked on a lathe to make the gen insert clipping in! Thanks to you all, guys!
  19. The work I did: - gen insert - gen crown - gen tube - CG's - noob dial - datewheel from the SSD - case completely reworked - polished bezel - polished rehaut - bezel reworked on a lathe to clip a gen insert in - noob caseback - bracelet with hollow midlinks mounted, brushed and polished it - installed swiss ETA 2836-2 with rolex engraving - clasp (from 2 several factorys made 1 perfect) - set movement to +-2 sec/day So what do you think?
  20. The gen EL's don't fit all, they have to be bended a little. I have seen that some fit without modifications, and other not. I use at the most 455B from wholesaleout, they are perfect without any bending or modification, and they accept gen springbars...
