  1. 16750 is Hour hand > GMT as well
  2. Not sure but I wouldn't begin to guess with hi-res shots of the movement, case/serial, and all aspects of the piece
  3. Bring it to a watchmaker and replace the crystal with a gen Rolex crystal. That is too nice to screw around with it yourself. It is a nice piece (though not all factory original, it does have later Rolex replacement parts)
  4. Stick with the 40mm Tudor Subs. The 40 is classic, the 36 is just small. You can find gen Tudor subs (76100,79090) for a little over 2 and occasionally a Snowflake in the low 2k range. Well worth in both watch and in resale to get the 40mm.
  5. I think the 1680 might be the best all around. Many more collectable - though you can get in trouble with Reds - it is just the quintessential sub. Part of why I chose the slightly more cool & underground 1680 cousin - a Tudor Snowflake My kids college fund generation project
  6. I bought a sub bezel as a backup for a gen from him (WSO) that showed the correct picture on the auction but what was delivered was completely the wrong size and shape. He swore me up and down I was wrong even after I did side by side comparison photos. After a while I did get a refund.
  7. Halfway between you and RogerThat This is like a New England Edition Thread
  8. Thanks & glad you like. I have a few more I should list though not that Pepsi
  9. Ahhh, there it is. Sniff. Though now I understand the lack of interest in the black
  10. I picked up a nice 1570 - they are not cheap. Some buy the non GMT and convert but that might be as expensive as getting one all together
  11. I'm curious too as I may have a couple similar with tritium dot
  12. Funny - most of the Communists I've come across (other than my boss) tended to have a rifle pointing my way.
  13. Not crazy Q&A at all Just building something I want Let me ask you a question. If you are in a spaceship that is traveling at the speed of light, and you turn on the headlights, does anything happen? - Steven Wright
  14. Other than the usual suspects like here, Ebay, other rep sites, TRF and especially VRF - what are good sources to find gen rolex parts? I will be hunting soon for a gen case (hard) and dial (which is not hard) and I'm hoping there are some other worthy places to check... Best! John
  15. Thanks - I've added an Ofrei pearl until I get a tritium... Last night I had it on in a dark enough room to see still a faint glow from the tritium markers and hands which I had not yet seen in the 5 months I've had it.
  16. There are a bunch of variations on the gen dial but most of the ones I have seen have much fainter = signs between the meters and feet. Font spacing is also off as well as the actual font with the more Z like S in Sub...
  17. Pick up one of the Red/Black roulette date wheels and have a 7021 Snowflake instead
  18. Dude! Watch out - your steering wheel is one the wrong side Looks great!
  19. I kind of like it and have been thinking of finding and rehabbing an older Tudor Cali dial
  20. Clearly you were not in the Air Force. You must be an Army guy! Were the beers in the Coke machine?
