  1. Any of you guys know where I can get a 116520 case and bracelet? I need it for a project I'm working on.
  2. The hour markings are incorrect. That's the first thing I noticed.
  3. He Valve position is wrong on that SM 300. Stick to the trusted dealers.
  4. I guess "handmade" these days means the machine was loaded by hand and the robots did all the work.
  5. The dial dots look huge compared to the gen. You'd also have to get a black datewheel. The crown looks off too. I'll pass.
  6. I just got an email from him. He's fine.
  7. I guess nobody knows or cares. I think the tells are huge. This is a stinker of a rep.
  8. Just wondering if anybody here has dealt with this seller.
  9. Cordura Lorica. It's what I have on my 3717 Fliegerstein.
  10. Rep case and rep crystal, but gen crown and crown tube.
  11. I woulda said, "I'll give you $500 for it. I collect beat-up old Rolexes."
  12. A lot of the rep dealer sites show the old pics with the old rotor. If you order it, you'll most likely receive the updated skeleton-style rotor.
  13. V3 or whatever the latest case was from last year.
  14. gen dial gen hands gen crown gen crown tube Swiss 7750 rep case Cordura strap gen buckle Along with this: Gives me a nice duo of IWC Fliegersteins.
  15. The Yuki hands are the better ones that are closer to the gens.
  16. I know! I just had to set it to "DIE 13." Big thanks to Pugwash and his excellent 7750 day/date wheel tutorial. It made changing the wheels very easy. I still have to epoxy the gen crown tube to the case, superglue the missing 3 o'clock gen lume marker on the gen dial, affix the gen hands, trim the stem on the gen crown, regulate the Swiss 7750 and finally wear it in good health! This one is going to be a keeper! Originally, my plan was to DLC the case, but I'll leave that for a later date. Big thanks to Texski for the gen parts. I've had these parts since last year.
  17. Finally got around to starting this build.
