Thanks, Ya its a leica q, but for me any camera with a macro mode will work and take nice watch pics. The Sony was good for macros but had bad autofocus and a lot of my other pics suffered, this one now has great autofocus and can still do the macro work. I agree that one hobby leads to another, I wouldn't be into photography otherwise

First shot with new camera, not bad, bit of a learning curve

Every once in a while I get an itch to wear something less sporty. I like it

A couple weeks, I traded my double Swiss 1675 and some cash for it. I prefer swiss only gilt dials and gilt hands, this one was really cool, crackle or spiderweb dial but the cracks are tiny and uniform throughout the dial giving it a cool look Imo
-
Look at that dial! Which build is this one? Is that a 5508? I love the white 6 o'clock radium marker.
Amazing vintage pieces today!
6536/1 gen!

Try to match the serial to the date code on the caseback
Only way to do it right!

Amazing build, and wow the look of the bezel is absolutely amazing, the combo of that dial and case and bezel etc is really really nice

Sounds like a perfect night

Saw that service dial from E, wasn't bad. 6000 is about right for that gilt dial, even though it's kind of unaffordable.
-
Awesome! Have you seen this dial for sale?

I know the feeling!

I found a bunch of threads on the MK?? discussions while doing general research on Subs. Conflicting information and in some cases from the same sources...I trust my friends here.
Yup it's one of the most confusing things about vintage subs, there have been new revelations (about pad printing) and now it's all very clear but nobody has made a definitive thread on vrf meant to try to change the way we categorize them
-
long 5 - mk1 (kissing and non kissing)
skinny 40 should be mk2.
mk 3 should remain mk3 (skinny, medium and kissing)
I'd be more then happy with that!
-
They are more rare which is why not many have seen them or know of them. Kissing 40 always got the mk1 tag but they are just mk3's printed with worn pads, and dbane' insert is an mk2 that was printed with a worn pad. The order is also wrong because mk2's (long 5) came first and should be called mk1
It's confusing but the way it SHOULD have gone is that we call long 5's mk1 and we call the current mk3's mk2. Then if we happen to have a "kissing 40" version of one or the other we just add that to the mk designation.. So we should be calling dbane' insert an mk1 kissing 40 simple and correct
Skinny 40 only from 63 had its own designation
"Skinny 40" .... Doesn't really need an mk associated with it imo
To be fair they had no clue back in 2012
