  1. You're a really master my friend! great project... I wush some day I will be able to have your skills...
  2. Randy... that's exactly my intention... glad we have similar taste I did not have the opportunity to make pics... next time Thanks my friend! next project will be soon and for both
  3. So, finally the project is over... even still needs some final adjustments, but here we go with the summary: Genuine 16233 case Genuine dial Genuine sapphire crystal Genuine crown Luenfat's datewheel Tudor hands Aftermarket TT jubilee bracelet from a good friend (thanks avara/007) ETA 2824 Custom aluminum spacer Issues: Hollow end links of the bracelet sounds like thousand little bells... nothing unexpected but I have to find some new end links and fatter spring bars. Even being quite confidence about the source, I wander the crystal is genuine... maybe just a personal feeling The crown doesn't screw up to the end of the tube... but I remember it happened in the past with my genuine Date TT. Nevertheless, I'm quite happy with the final result... now it's time for a new project... maybe a WG version. Enjoy pics (sorry for the bad lighting and quality but were taking very fast at night) MB stuff is all genuine and not for sale
  4. I could offer the service of a watchmake I know in Madrid but jot for movement servicing/reparation, swapping movements, dials, crowns... no cosmetic work.
  5. Go to eBay and search for "submariner policarbonat" or "submariner policarbonato".
  6. It depends of your personal taste. Plastic in datejusts or date models sits very high while sapphire models not. The conversion kit reproduce the same aspect of the plastic (sitting high) but you clearly see is sapphire. Is like using close 6 & 9 datewheels in old rolex models.
  7. I've never received mails from the forum notifying anything...
  8. That's just because you're a Daytona fan my friend!
  9. I have the Luenfat's datewheel and it doesn't match (too big). The number is too big for the date window- I wil measure the datewheel and I'll let you know... Randy, could you give me the diameter of your datewheel?
  10. Ubi... will this overlay be valid for my genuine Rolex Date 15000 case? I understand that yes because the original mov. for this watch was a 1570... isn'it?
  11. Don't miss the "Sagrada Familia" cathedral, visit the "Born" neighborhood (another beautiful cathedral there) and next to this is the Barrio Gotico" with many fashion shops. Finally take a walk (or have lunch/dinner) at the sportive port and have some drinks at the "Maremagnum". Take a taxi 'cause Barcelona is a huge city.
  12. I have stopped the group buy because some members have stated that the band offered by my dealer is the same than Joshua's which is cheaper. I asked these members to post some pics once received and therefore I stopped the group buy since it makes no sense going for a more expensive band being the same one being sold by a known dealer. I'm still receiving requests from some members to supply the band and I'm sending this same message to all of them. Nevertheless, if for whatever reason you want me to supply the band from my dealer (it's not "mine" just someone I knew) just let me know and I'll try to make him keeping the group buy price.
  13. ETA version with a nice AR coating.
  14. She's back... shared some mails with her this week.
  15. Wrist pics... 6.4" wrist BTW: Joe... my date font seems diffrent than yours...
  16. I'm in... not good having to pay to upload money by the CC... 2% is not fair.
  17. I wouldn't want anybody feeling reaped off because he's paying 15 USD extra for the same band hat can be bought from Joshua. Nevertheless, being honest, at the moment I can ensure the band my dealer is selling fits the way you see in pics. It would be nice having pics from Joshua's band...
  18. Guys... I'm not going to continue with this group buy since seems that Joshua's one is the same as this dealer is selling. TeeJay, please... once you receive the band, post pics like NAVI did. If the bands are not the same and this one looks better, then I will ask again the dealer and if still available I'll let you know. Ok?
  19. I'm still wandering if the rubber band this seller is selling is the same than Joshua sells. In this case, I would cancel this group by and inform the rest of people interested that they can get Joshua's one. At least, with the info from NAVI you know how it looks like and the way to improve it.
  20. PLease... if you have found a cheaper source with the same or better quality let us know so we can take advantage of...
  21. I think it would take 10 days from ordering to the dealer and shipping to you.
  22. Pics from NAVI (thanks a lot) Now all of you know how this band fits... and take in account that NAVI's wrist is a thin one... so if still interested, mail to plmemavi@gmail.com with the subject PO RUBBER... If we put 20 orders together the group buy can go ahead!
