  1. LOL hope not junbug 5150 Right now it's a suspension. we'll see
  2. Brobert did not like the fact I was taking to long to send him what he wanted, so he suspended me. Who's next?
  3. For some dials the mainplate can be slotted, I've done it. The datejust cannot be done. I can do it for one foot, but the other foot prevents the set lever from operating correctly. As the set lever moves to the date set and time set position the foot next to it will not let it move up. I tried slotting the set lever, but it was to weak after it was cut.
  4. Either buy the right tool or take it to a jeweler to open it. Even with the correct tool you have to have some way to hold it.
  5. Welcome to the banned club. I also was banned from rwi. Silly reason. I have to defend my work at rep geek or I could be banned there too. I love rwg
  6. A slightly thicker dial ring should put it dead center
  7. They just want to know you're who you say you are. A cc and bank account linked to your pp helps you transact business. Once you're established and identity is verified, you will have most of your limits lifted. If you think it's a spoof, call them
  8. Yes, I have. A fellow put an add up for 3 vintage watch case. In the pic one looked like an old dj case. He gave no description, just 3 old watch cases. Starting bid $.99. Shipping $6.95. I bid $.99, and won the auction. It turns out not only was the case and caseback a gen 16014 rolex, it had a gen crystal and gen white gold fluted bezel. You don't get any luckier than that
  9. SSTEEL. If I can help on any pressing issues, I will be glad to do anything I can as for repairs. You can send them to me and I will do them for you at no charge. LMK if I can help. As for going to see your mom, GO! It's very important in the last stages of your moms life for you to spend time with her. Don't wait. If your gut feels like you should find another way to get there sooner, obey that instinct. Even though we know the end is close, we are never prepared when the end actually comes. That's why it's so important to put family first. I'm sure everyone that has work with you will agree and understand. Not to mention how glad your sisters will be to know your there. Again, if I can help with your repairs, lmk
  10. I was walking through an indoor parking lot with a friend. We had been talking. There was a pause in the conversation. I heard small "klink" I asked if he heard that, he said yes. I stopped out of curiosity. Looked behind me, on the floor was my gen 18238. WOW!! If we had been talking, I never would have heard hit the floor. Did NOT feel it come off my wrist. WHEW!! GOOD KARMA!! It does happen.
  11. Yes, I got the money back. He withdrew the claim, just as quietly as he filed it. WEIRD!! The only reason I can think of, is because I agreed to a return of merchandise for a full refund. Maybe he was going to send an empty box. This is strange!!
  12. He's being honest about it. He has great feedback. Good seller. $.99 to start. I would buy it for that rep or not.
  13. Yep, scum bag's do their work in all parts of their lives. Telling a lie for them is a way of life. So, now he's banned here, repgeek, and rwi. I'm sure it won't be long before is back with another user name and email. Be on your toes everyone.
  14. Legend. Thank you for that offer. That is a very generous thing to do. However, I am able to absorb the loss. $800 is not that bad. The most concern I have now is how it will affect my pp account. I have settled with pp on the claim, hopefully it will just go away. Thanks again Legend.
  15. Seems he was selling rep watches on ebay and claimed they were gen. Probably what happened with mine. Sold it, they returned it as fake. Opened a claim with pp. 100% scammer
  16. Thanks mike on a bike. I agreed to the return on paypal. Not much choice since they froze my account for the money. At least he has to return it in the same condition he received it. LOL So, lesson learned. Know who you're doing business with. Assume nothing. Do your homework. Thanks rwg staff, you're the best
  17. a 2824-2 will work. You won't even need a movement ring, really. Cut the tabs correctly and it will not move. Good luck
  18. Yes, a 2824-2 will fit perfect. By the way, a 34mm is a date, not a datejust.
  19. If I could find any emails from him, I would send them to pp, but I can't find any
  20. I sold a watch on Jan 20 2015. Yesterday he opened a case with pp. He said he bought a gen from me ad turned out it was fake. I cannot find any emails from him. Is ok to publish his name and email here to see if someone knows him? Thanks UPDATE He withdrew the claim with pp. Maybe because I checked the box to return merchandise for a full refund. He may have been planning to ship an empty box.
  21. Close the clasp and hold the watch just like in your pic. If one side is longer, remove a link from that side and add it to the other. When you hold your watch the way you're holding it in your picture, but with the clasp closed, the buckle should be parallel to the head. If you have no links to swap, break one from the long side.When you break the link off you will have to drill the hole out to accept the screw.
  22. So the rolex rehaut engraving doesn't line up either. Interesting
