  1. I hate that word reprint or redial when talking about fake dials, they were printed once, putting re before the word dial implies that it was a real dial once and has now been reprinted on its original plate.
  2. Phong takes bit coins as payment
  3. Maybe it's a stolen watch and the dial has a serial number on it that he was unaware of before he removed it... One explanation, or maybe it really does have a small chip
  4. Kind of crazy to be doing that without a hat on..
  5. Amazing job. I'd wear it on a rivet or oyster band, take some macro or closeup pics if you can pls
  6. Thanks for letting us know, great to hear. Is he in the us?
  7. These are my ten in no particular order: • Patek nautilus • Audemars royal oak non offshore • Vintage Rolex submariner • Vintage Rolex daytona • Blancpain 50 fathoms • Vacheron overseas • Iwc pilot watches • Vintage Heuer Monaco • Vintage Rolex explorer • Vintage Rolex gmt
  8. Don't know about any of this but I've seen old (genuine) military dials that when decommissioned get "hole punched", not sure the reason but it appears that the ebay dial has also been "hole punched".. I don't know if any of it is real, but that's something that stands out for me Example of punched dial Drstrong was selling here was the description 2. A Tudor 7922/7924 dial. It's the large size with curved shape. It was NOS, but a genius in the French Navy workshop has removed the feet and drilled some holes on the outer edge. My watchmaker has fixed it, but the repair is not perfect. It will look nice on a watch though : 2500 Euros
  9. I can't believe you would sell that chocolate beauty Nanuq.. That's a keeper Yes I will keep in touch with you through Pm's, I have lots of advice to give
  10. He's pulling you're leg! Mine is not for sale, and yes he uses genuine dial plates and techniques I will let you know if/when he makes any more.
  11. Ok I'll stop! Lol. You are making a good decision, make it yourself or gather the parts and have a professional make it for you like I do. It's way more satisfying and you end up with exactly what you want. The tropic 17 superdome is essential, it will be 450$ shipped, I'll let you know when one is available, next a gen crown helps to pull off the look, you can find one for not too much dough if you try and it will fit on a phong or Minh tube so no problem there. A great fat font insert is easy to find and imo important to the overall look. Phong's bezel is nearly perfect, I'm anal and prefer the gens but nobody will know except you.
