  1. Looks great! I notice your TC bracelet has a circular stamp on the inside of one link, mine also. Anyone know why, do gen 93250 bracelets have it?
  2. Hi, I fixed a hand misalignment problem on a cheap sub, but when the time came to recase the movement, I could not remove the stem by pressing the release button. Searched the forum, plenty of threads on stems that will not go back in due to depressing the button too hard and stuffing up the keyless works, but could not find anything on stems that will not release. Anyway, removed the hands again, then removed the dial, stopped short of removing the date wheel. Underside of button appears to be sitting inside a fork arm, should the button be sitting on one of the arms? Movement is a 21j, could be a DG 2813, not sure. Any advice much appreciated

  4. Hi Doug, A good friend of mine, a Scottish guy called Ross worked on the bridge repairs at Weipa for two seasons on the trot. He is a Subsea engineer and was part owner of SureSpec the inspection company. Would not want to be the first diver in the morning going into the safety cage in murky water, in case it had an occupant with sharp teeth, ha ha.
  5. "Also, given that the time of a sat dive is controlled from outside of the saturation complex, there is actually no real reason for saturation divers to even have a watch because their time spent underwater is irrelevant. Because their bodies are saturated, their decompresssion times will remain the same (assuming they are always at the same depth for the duration of the dive), and this is controlled by the panel operators so there is no real need for a diver to bother looking at a watch (since they can't leave the chamber anyway)." Very true and anyway if you want to know the time you can always ask the topside via comms, wether in the water, bell or chamber. A sat diver once told me that his submariner (no He valve) exploded while decompressing, said he gathered up the bits and posted them to Rolex who refurbished it for him free of charge. That was in the early days of the North Sea.
  6. I see he has a second one under his other items! Report it guys
  7. I like the Speyside single malts, especially Glenfidich 18 year old. They also make a 14 year old called Rich Oak which is very good and great value duty free.

    TC DWO V3

    Pure luck really. I went into a small watchmakers shop in an arcade in Perth Australia and asked him if he had a green LV bezel insert for a 16610. Said that he did not have a new one, but he had a used one which he had replaced on a guys watch. Has a couple of scratches and the luminous dot seems to be cracked but hey, $50 for a used gen, I will live with that. Was going to fit an outlet 990 one which I had bought on EBay, it has thinner font and the flat 4 unlike this one

    TC DWO V3

    Thanks for the update TC. Looking forward to receiving mine with the new DWO. Managed to source a genuine LV bezel insert to complement it.
  10. I have a 1680 single red with the same problem. Which type crown are you going to fit, are you going to change the tube also?
