I guess it depends in who's blowing the watch hahahahaha

Yes no problems

Sub for me<br /><br />

Got 35k miles on her since 2011. Gas guzzler, but the diesel convention is coming next year. For now she's got the updated ring and pinion to 4.86 rolling on 35" tires. Last night in the snow the drive was more than fun

Full carbon diver. Me likey

The problem I have with WSO's parts its the fit. If the end link on the case. You can always find 380 end links over the VRF and go gen. I had a nice pair of 385 end links that fit perfectly on the 7032 and kept those because the fit and finish was so great. Sometimes fit and finish is more important (at least to me) than factual importance. <br /><br />455 end links come on the Yuki and PT 93150. The fit is not bad, but these need to be opened up for gen bars. <br /><br />That said, I would steer clear WSO and search eBay and the usual suspect forums for the parts. If the 2mm bars don't fit well, some JB weld and SS tube works well(I forget the source)<br /> Just my 2 cents

Submariner (again)<br /><br />

Lets not forget the Cask Strength MCAllan.

Look at this for comparison. You can see the outline of the bevel of the date window. 

Been wearing this almost non-stop. 

White seconds hand, correct? As Maurica sys, " That's it"

Oban, but on a regular basis, or just after work either McAllan 18, or Highland Park of the same age. For an everyday highlands Scotch, the prices are ridiculous where I live and the smoothness coupled with a nice cigar is alright by me.

Looks awesome. Leave it as is. Now, the hands Gilt hands that are aged are the trick. baking them in the ven is a trial and error thing. 

I one day will start working on my gen spec big crown. 

Thanks for sharing CC

@Eric,

Did you try using the holes on the clasp? You can go up or down half link sizes by using the different holes on the clasp. This way you keep the proper fitment of the diver's extension and have the fit you need.  For example, I have a 7.25"-7.5" wrist and normally leave one link out and use the third from the last hole and it fits just right on most oyster bracelets. 

Seems there were some bracelets shipped like so. The 12h side has the circle as previously stated. Email TC. Seems to be an issue with the V3 orders. I received one untouched V3 from a fellow member and it came like that. Problem solved by TC.

Oh my god that is sexy! This is making me get one just like that.

6309 for a change.

That is looking superbly nice CC. I like it a lot better now. Definitely inboard with Freddy in the matte. Fine mist, rather than speckled. You may even try heating the dial first before spraying.

I'm super jealous now.

That 60s dial looks sexy as hell!

Still wearing this one. Gen dial, hands, insert, ST case and serviced y3135.

That is one sweet looking Seamaster Ubi. Sweet indeed

Imagine if Adrian can get the 6538 case done with the correct slim side profile and straight lugs? I would sign up for at least two. One for the Bond homage and the other for the 5510.

I might sell one of them one of these days, but for now I'm having way too much fun. This is the dial for the next build. Have a phong case and gen 8mm crown. Im still looking for a gen bezel and 1030

Awesome looking dial for sure!

Isn't there a 6241 movedel that we can use for this build that ACTUALLY has a gen like bezel construction?  I love the big crown Bond, specially being a skin diver and spear fisherman. I love wearing an old watch for its simplicity and history as well. The Bond is still a grail, but waiting for a good canditate. Already build a 6538 and a 6200. The SIlix is not a bad candidate, but just doesn't cut it for me.

Just MHO
