Hey K.

Thats bad news... i feel for u still im glad ure alright and no one was attacked.

Hang in there, Laz.

im sure its gonna have the same case as the 2008 WG sub but in SS and black dial with ceramic insert...

Laz

Well it shod from all the topics about it and people moaning for one for ages (me included) i just don't see why none from the makers realize this earner opportunity ... sheesh sometimes im amazed by the ...

Laz

Great pics of great watches gang! Im back to EXP. II atm my favorite watch...

Haha now there u go... i just love answers like this, damn its good to be here

Laz

Steph is right no real rule with ends i saw a few gens with 580s also. IMHO 585s would be ideal but not a must in any case.

Laz

Sell the superdome

NEVER Superdome =

Laz

Ehehe Steph u weasel

well u might have a point but i fell in love with the superdome that came on this GW and thought to myself why not build a RED for a change...

Now that said Tribal has a DRSD back for me on hold and an MBW DRSD dial all do im not a fan of the red lettering on that one maybe ill just keep the GW dial and back if i decide to switch that down the road ... still if i build what i have pictured in my mind with use of an more vibrant red letter dial i think the switch back will not be needed

Man i love this pre-project decisions i swear this is the biggest fun!

Laz

OK time for a bump guys here is my latest MBW 1665 GW but due to the Tropic 39 Superdome that came on this watch and me already completed one GW project i decided today with Tribal to build a DRSD from this...

here is the curent state:

t39 superdome, ubi flat DW, nicely moded insert and some CG work...

TO DO's:

swap to DRSD case back, gen ends and bars, reworking the case, HEV. valve mod, pearl mod, gen crown/tube, DRSD Dial swap, luming and vintagizing hands and dial.

No better feeling then when u know new project is on the way

All is in pipe and decided except the dial choice im personally not to keen on the MBW DRSD dials as the red text is to dark for my liking and not printed sharp enough. I'm thinking to go the NDT dial way... ?!

Comments and advice welcome.

Cheers Laz

Interesting comment Stephane i have the same feeling about the ROO... hope someone will have one to show on the CZ GTG.

I'm wearing this one today:

regards Laz

Its a nice watch... truth to be told i even considered getting the genuine but things changed when i handled the gen. in Vienna at an AD.

Still a gorgeous watch nevertheless a good rep would be a nice alternative.

Laz

for your consideration Explorer II Snow White, 16600 Dweller, 1665 MBW GW...

Ure pictures are always a pleasure to look at, thx for posting. I think this will be a BD gift for my best m8, he is fund of this IWC model.

regards laz

Saw it 3 hours ago i liked it better then Casino Royal ... but to each its own ... lovely comex u have there freddy

Well the tritium glow life is been said to be around 10 years + or there about. I know Kelster has a gen tritium sub. maybe he can comment on the luminosity of his dial and hands.

I have here a gen tritium dial on a 16800 Frankenstein, this one is for sure older then your dial but i can confirm that mine has absolutely no glow at all.

As for super luming a gen tritium dial most of the people would consider it a blasphemy... personally i agree and would not touch it...

Hope this helps to some level... regards Laz

HI Robbie.

here u can see my now sold 1680 sub with documented list of mods and pics: http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=45271&hl=

cheers Laz

To each is own i guess... i personally never opted to put SL on a vintage project... still some people love it go with the flow

PS that has to be the strongest lume i have ever seen on a rep watch or for that matter on a gen. (presumably its a stock photo)

Laz

Alright so what u have on

i just unpacked a package and put this on i needed a vintage rolli back in collection felt a bit lost without one

Laz

Hi all,

i will be that weekend in Prague. If u guys might plan a one day trip to CZ capital that would be great... if not ill come down to K.V. to see u guys

Cheers Laz

To be praised!

Real reference post with tons of valuable information... thx for taking ure time!

regards Laz

I got a new D-SLR there fore playing with it now here is one of the first shots i took my dweller

Laz

i love the look of this watch. I think the black dial works so much better. please god, make the rep dream come true

i have handled this exact gen on Saturday in a local AD here, its nice indeed all do just another copy of the sub

i would rather go for a blue dialed sea master
