    Sub/Mil 5517

    If only those hands fit ETA, I will be over it.
  2. Checkout the gen LV from this site. It look different from the norm. Just the pic, or a variant? http://www.alanfurman.com/noframes/rolex1.html#ro_sub
  3. Whose rack are those They look like 2 puppies playing under a cotton blanket
  4. Vintage GMT Master with correct bezel and thin case.
  5. Cheapy aftermarket insert.
  6. I agree with you folks, there is something in this basic sub, this watch is still has the most wrist time of all my watches.
  7. NANUQ <noun>, (na-nook), Native American for "Polar Bear" NANUQIZE <verb>, (na-nook-eyes), meaning to do this to a watch.
  8. Nice Maserati. At first I thought i still have the hang over
  9. How are you doing Sir!! I have not seen you here for quite a while,,hope everything is fine.
  10. RSW Keep on Lovin You You should've seen by the look in my eyes, baby There was somethin missin You should've known by the tone of my voice, maybe But you didn't listen You played dead But you never bled Instead you lay still in the grass All coiled up and hissin And though I know all about those men Still I don't remember Cause it was us baby, way before then And we're still together And I meant, every word I said When I said that I love you I meant That I love you forever And I'm gonna keep on lovin you Cause it's the only thing I wanna do I don't wanna sleep I just wanna keep on lovin you (solo) And I meant every word I said When I said that I love you I meant That I love you forever (chorus) And I'm gonna keep on lovin you Cause it's the only thing I wanna do I don't wanna sleep I just wanna keep on lovin you Baby I'm gonna keep on lovin you Cause it's the only thing I wanna do I don't wanna sleep I just wanna keep on lovin' you
  11. But why collector Big Stream,,,I think he is more obscure than most collectors with big websites and all. Did he [censored] off anybody here lately?? He seem such a nice guy.
  12. Since when did this CN sub bezel became hard to remove?? Are this different than the usual piece of thin wire retainer arround the bezel? The last sub I had (BeginMariner) was the same thin wire retainer arround the bezel just like my 2 year old subs.
  13. Very nice Euno!! Is the 6 and 12 a bit thicker than normal? I am thinking of getting the AMG chrono version, but I'm a bit worried about that seconds on the 6.
  14. I'd say the short hands and dial print on that wo-mart black smp is not good. I have seen one from River before with longer hands and good dial print. I do not know if River can still source it.
  15. @Maxse,,I hope you were not flashing it intentionally,,,or maybe,,,he noticed you were eyeballing his GF Either way this sure will hurt anybody of us who get called out with a rep.
  16. Regardless of how much you paid for it Tickle me _____ It be $10 or $10K, the fact that you have this piece is awesome. When I said "rebuild it" I meant, just make it run if not running. I would preserve as it is by not changing the look of it but only replacing wornout parts to make it run. Can you post some more pics? Side, caseback and crown side shot maybe?
  17. From time time my wife and I would go to this richie nieghborhoods yard sale and I am always in the lookout for items like this. I know they are out there. Even if your find is a rep,,it is still a very good buy for us vintage lover. Open it up and see if it is a gen(which I suspect it is) and see if you can get it restored. This is supposed to the late 50s 6536,,,my only concern is it should only have the "SWISS" below the 6,,but who knows Rolex have so many types of dial. Congrats on the find
  18. This is how Jay/Angel make you feel better. What they really mean is "we do not have it in stock at the moment, do not worry, you will get your watch soon" Just kidding you,,, actually most members that are familiar with Silix do not even bother about the tracking#. Happened to me twice,,after 2 weeeks after payment, I sent them an email enqiurey about the order. Jay said "oh sorry here it is",,me not knowing that the oink stub is already in my mailbox. Don't get me wrong, it is just normal to remind our dealer about our order. They can forget too,,or something can happen along the way.
  19. By-Tor, I bet you missed those two dearly Beautiful vintages guys, I wish I own them all
  20. Just give it a tap and turn the extractor slowly counter clockwise, just be gentle. I have used the screw extractor and the rat tail file and they work. The part of the tube that goes into the case are sometimes,,like paper thin, so do not be surprise if it break.
