  1. Sorry but turn stem clockwise or counter clockwise?
  2. Thanks much This one will do for now. If the watch was a super rep it would be a little different. I might use him or yuki on my dw 6263 rehab though. Im needing end links, spring bars, and a gasket for the case back.
  3. Insert snapped right in. No glue. Pearl is too big but all in all nice for $14.00.
  4. How do this without destroying watch? Ive searched the net far and wide and just got more confused. This statment on a watch forum really confused me. "I made the mistake of removing the stem while the watch was in the hand-setting position, rather than in the winding position. Subsequently, the stem would not fit back into the keyless works" Im very confused.. Should I press the release lever while inserting stem? Is there a trick to this? I would also like to know what to avoid doing too. Any help is greatly appreciated.
  5. DW may still have dials He must be busy at this time.
  6. Spinmaster was able to help. Im going to do a Paul Newman dial.
  7. Help spinmaster can you supply a 7750 6263,6264 dial, hands, feet?
  8. It seems he cant find the dials for the 7750 anymore. The spacing it slightly wrong on these watches. I dont want to spend 1500 on a movement. I worry that if I cant find the 37mm watches Im out of luck. My watch is 36mm but I think the 37mm watches dial may fit? I dont think the dials on the 39mm watches will fit my watch.
  9. My 7750 based 6263 finally died. This is a 7750 based DW 6263 with gen crystal. I tried to remove the dial and basically destroyed it.. It was welded with glue to the movement. Ive contacted DW and it seems he is unable to supply a dial, movement, hands, feet, ect. Then I noticed on joshes site these http://www.1-pc8838.com/rldv10017-paul-newman-whiteredblack-asia-7750-chronograph-p-650.html I was wondering if it would be possible to transplant movement dial ect to my DW watch?
  10. My 1665 great white. The damage is done already as I already ordered the insert.. At least it was cheap! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180434809349
  11. Are these inserts OK..I dont have to have perfection just something thats ok. http://stores.ebay.com/WHOLESALEOUTLET990/INSERTS-/_i.html?rt=nc&_fsub=185586010&_sid=268970040&_trksid=p4634.c0.m14.l1513&_pgn=1
  12. True this is a just photoshop and a amateur attempt but you get the idea. The gen crown is a little smaller but the reps cgs are too small. Still I'm happy with the watch. It has the charisma of a 1680. It feels like the gen. The PT 1680 I had some time ago didn't. I'm not sure what it was about the PT 1680 but it just didn't have the presence this watch does. That said I'm going to a buy anther PT 1680 for its silver date wheel lol.
  13. Bracelet is ok. Not great. It wont fall apart but its a lot lighter than the noob mariner. Not sure if thats correct for this model.
  14. There both out of the box. The great white 1665 is from PT. Its my beater. Ive done my best to make it look as believable as possible.
  15. Had to post up some pics of my 1680 and 1665 side by side.
  16. Just some pics I took today. I haven't seen many pics of these on the forum.
  17. Its the crown. Its too big. With a micro setting on a camera its HUGE lol
  18. The 1680 was the only gen Ive ever owned. So I was greatly excited to see joshes white 1680. Funny thing is it was so long ago that I owned the gen I cant remember much about it. I didn't hang out on the forums back then and didn't really study the watch. Just wore it and thought it was cool. One thing thats not right on this rep is the crown. Its too big. The pictures make the crown look much larger than it actually is. Especially in close up shots. The bracelet feels a lot lighter than I remember my gen. But that was 10 years ago. lol Anyways here are the pics. All in all for $200 a pretty decent rep. The crystal is super nice on these reps the date mag is nice to.
  19. Not trying to rant here. Just wondering how long before my vendor comes to the rationalization that the package is LOST. No updates for 40 days... I know he is not wanting to send a another watch and have two watches show up but damn. Your item left GUANGZHOU EMS, CHINA PEOPLES REP on December 09, 2010. No further information is available for this item.

  20. where did you get it?
  21. Beautiful watch. Has to be a future classic. Why cant they make a reasonable rep of this watch
  22. Thanks for clarifying that. I would have kept searching lol.
  23. I like the thunder bird but Im not finding any that have the correct 36mm case. Most are 38mm. Where to buy the most accurate I dare ask..
