Greeting All,

I like to thank Mike (Rionrlty) for a great services. Sent him my BK sub for movement and crown services.  Rec'd my watch back today, and it looks and runs great. 

Hope all stay safe and healthy!

-sincerely-

Looking beautiful, it looks *gen* to me (and I owned a gen DJ 1603).  Did Matt or yourself source the parts?  Thanks.

Great looking watch!!! Excellent decision to upgrade it with gen parts. Thanks for sharing!

*Beautiful* and a great built.  I kept scrolling back & forth to look at the pics, very nice

Love your DJ.  My first rep and gen Rlx are DJ (1603), still have it.

Just curious, your DJ crystal's cyclob is AR? I can't tell from the pics, Thanks.

It's great to be young and beautiful; Love the music. Kewl, thanks.

Lovely watch, lovely pics :-)

Great post and awesome (BP case) Sub-C build!  Thanks for sharing.

Quick question: Based on your build, would you think that BP Sub-C case (may) accept gen dial (with feet cut) ? If not, ... any insight as to why?

Best Regards

Newbie Lurker says Hi.. to the 5517 rep guys out there. . .

 

Being new, im not sure who MBW is or where I could get a 5513 case to start the build.. any ideas guys?.  PS can the MBW cases be waterproofed for swimming at pool depth?.

 

Cheers mac

Hey Mac:  MBW = Maria Best Watch.  DO a search on "Maria Best Watch" and select "Rolex Forum" and you get some additional info.  See the URL link below and few comments/explanation from some members here.

JKAY:  Maria was a dealer here several years ago. He ran "Maria's Best Watch" = MBW ... this dealer has not existed in at least 3 years.

           He sold watches which he sourced from the "MBK" shopping mall in Bangkok .. the letters are an acronym for "The Mall of Everything"

           You can still source the same watches or watch parts from MBK via various dealers here.

WOOF:  Narrika is the main dealer that sources the new ones called MBK.

Very nice collection.  Love the leather watch straps/bands.

Hey rsg1211.Welcome to the forum. 

Regarding your question about package delivery, I checked their website, it looks like they use local delivery to ship in their country and when it gets to USA, they use USPS.  Please verify it.

• The United States (==>USPS)

If watch****.net uses certified mail then someone at your home will have to sign for it.  You have to contact/email them for info.  Or that someone on the forum who has dealt with them can give a better info.

Good luck

Very nice choice of watches, classy and excellent collection!

Compare the brightness of the TC dial font to the gen dials of that era

I see, thanks :-))

Have both TC & BK WM9 subs and gen 16610 dials.  IMHO, both TC & WM9 dials are accurate (close to gen than other reps).  However TC dial's print (whiteness) is "noticeably" lighter (in color) when comparing side-by-side with WM9 dial.  Itcould have been rep dials are inconsistently made/produced.  But that's what I have.

Both dials have good lume, don't see difference.

Dial's size and feet--no info.  You can check TC blog and WM9 sub review for more info.

Thanks for all the replies guys. Yeah should have been more specific. I'm looking to get a Rolex DSSD. And was just wanting to know the best dealer. So I'm not ending up with a lemon so to speak.

I did have a quick look down the various forums but couldn't see any in dealers. I'll have another go.

Regards DSSD, I like BK but that's just my opinion. See all TDs and make the decision yourself.  Use the search box, type "DSSD" to read old postings. Good luck.

Hi Redroom:

I frequently use UPS.  their website has features for you to calculate time and cost to ship an item.  USPS website also provides capabilities to calculate the price.  You need to know the buyer's postal address. Hope this helps.

Congrats, great looking watch.  You may consider a TC v3 sub bracelet.  http://blog.tc-sub.com/2012/07/79-tc-93250-v3.html

I have a smilar BK WM9 v2 w/ gen insert, crown, tube and crystal with TC v3 bracelet :-)

'RWG - Friendliest watch forum on the planet' :-)

Antoniothegame:  I'll pm you some info.

Beautiful photography, both look great! 

The 14060 has that 60'/70' classic timeless look whereas the 2054.20 has a bit more contemporary modern look.  Love the 14060 and its time period :-)

(2) I believe that the TC V-series (ver 4) which was reviewed on this post is no longer available, but you can contact TC for info.

(3) Once a while, I've seen TC subs are being offered (by forum members) on the RWG sales section.

Good luck

The watch looks vintage and beautiful!

Try Londongeorge87. I don't know if he has gen crystal for Milgauss GV but I just got a gen 16610 AR crystal from him-- Trustworthy RWG member.
