Thats a great looking watch.

Thanks for the info. Guys I guess I got lucky with my pams

I not feeling them either. I never ever heard any WIS claiming to own or have own one.

Zenith Handwind

I which I could add to this thread. But everything has already been said. Dont do it.

Does anyone have any of the following bezel protector just lying area

1) PAM - I need 2 my luminor and one for my radiomir

2) Rolex - I need 4 my subs and one for my DSSD

Same as it has been every year since 2005, a proper Navitimer

A navi world to be exact.

It really amazing to see a lot of my reps are within cosc.

I prefer to frankenize a watch. but you need a great base to start with

Just go for the TW best by BK mate. A lot of the "improvements" in the wm9 are even better on the BK.

I said it once and Ill say it again... the only reason to get a wm9 is to frankenize it to the fullest. A rep wm9 parts imo is not the same quality as the BK TWbest. You get a wm9 for the case construction.

I have a nice LV gen dial waiting for the powers that be say its ready for prime time. But I think im going to sit on this for dial for version 2

That is an awesome build RA.

Since this year is coming to a close what are the top 5 out of the box reps in 2011 ?

I gotten lucky based on a watch, clothes, and the car I drove. it was what it was and hopefully those days are behind me. One day ill even give up my 2 seater roadster.

Get a mesh bracelet and itll really pop

Pics please

I would go with a used JLC ultrathin if you want a timeless classic. I also love a JLC reverso. it would help if we knew your price range. FYI Since I've been wearing reps and saving my watch fund money, my next gen will be a GO panomatic moonphase.

I was going to make a snoopy franken project with a OEM dial from orfei but the lack of a decent caseback was a deal breaker for me.

I doubt if a respectable rep bezel will be out anytime soon

I also had an airman when I first got into the watch game. I sold it, biggest mistake I made. I never saw one again anywhere close to what I sold it at

Nice watch, did you get the car, I would have to see recent pics of the girl sometimes 15 years has a way of making a girl look a little different

Thanks pretty awesome. Some great people over on RWG thats why I not only made RWG my rep home. Great look watch BTW.

First off I'm very much a rep noob, But I decided on taking on a project watch, A blue snowflake tudor. So I'm asking for direction and any help you can give.

I will post pictures and updates along each stage of the build. I have a maximum budget of $1000

So here are some basic questions

1) which case do I need and where is the best place to source it

2) which hands do I need and where is the best place to source it

3) which dial do I need and where is the best place to source it

4) What is the best movement to put in it. I really dont need to have stamp rotors and such. This hopefully would be keep watch.

5) After sourcing the above parts what are the mods needed.

6) Who should I get to put all the pieces together - I have zero watchmaker skills and dont want to learn on a expensive project

Again any opinions and input are welcome.

I cant wait to see some updated pics

Hopefully itll be taken care of soon. Josh is a real standup guy

maybe the xstal is the best option at this point.

seems like you found youre answer rather quickly with your own decision making skills
