^ what he said

Thanks guys! Some more eye candy this morning

:thumbup: thanks Rolexman! So the Gen AP strap arrived and my baby is finished!

Well after some modification to the inner bezel.....Success! I'm a very happy man lol

Thanks for the replies guys he's gonna try and cut it to fit. In not concerned about waterproofing as it will be on a AP hornback anyway. Hopefully all will go well

need your help please. I'm currently modding my Franken White themes and changing it into the white themes rubberclad model. My rubber bezel just arrived and my watchsmith was trying to replace it from the Steel bezel that's on the watch currently. However he is saying that the rubber "gasket" that goes under the bezel does not fit with the new rubber bezel?? Did anyone run into this problem? Is there a different gasket for the rubberclad models? Here's a picture

What my watchmaker is saying is that the inside of the steel bezel is round inside. But the rubber bezel has an octogan shape and doesn't fit the gasket correctly? Please if you have any advice I would appreciate it!

Hahaha it's your twin Cheif! Waiting for my incoming Gen black Hornback to arrive for it

Someone say Franken ROO? :)

Absolutely stunning! Wear it in good health

I agree that there really isn't much of a need to worry about the plating. It's exceptional. The question you need to ask yourself is can you wear a $40k watch

Just my 2 cents.

Hello friend,

The Safari sec@12 is a great quality ROO ( if it's the updated model with the silver outlines on the numbers / cream color dial )

However, as with all of the ROO's the date wheel is too far to the right and not deep enough. It's noticeable to Gen owners or the knowledgable AP guru from up close, yet far from noticeable to the average Joe from a couple of fee away. You can't change the date wheel placement or depth because the 7750 movement doesn't allow it . We would all have Franken ROO's I'f that was the case lol. Just enjoy it it's a great rep! I sold mine recently and I can't stop kicking myself for it!
