it was a long time since I had not worn a Silix, this one damn looks good.

A beauty indeed!

Unfortunately not. Pity.

Just spotted the BB Chronograph on Trustytime:

Here’s a dial comparison with the gen (top).

 

 

Rodico blue is your friend when it comes to dust specs on dial or crystal.

Thanks for the advice on the Tail, I need all the help I can get. Will do eventually just keep bugging me about it, Who can do it, I guess I better look at the genuine pictures to see exactly what you mean.

Here's a gen. I've circled the tail of the second hand. It's a small detail that makes a lot of difference. Carefully clip it and sand the edges to a point.

 

What about a 5517 its kind of a 5513 ??????
 

 
Check out that Smoking hot Phong insert.... YEA BABY!

Very nice! You need to trim the tail of the second hand, then it will be perfect.

For me the decline and drop-off appears to have started with the introduction of the re-designed sales section. As posted earlier, the older version was a much better user experience. Can we get it back?

Bring back the old, more intuitive, M2M sales section format. The new version hasn’t added beneficial functionality. It also requires a workaround of double posting images in the “Watches” thread as well as in the “Classifieds” to reach the Tapatalk audience. Bottom line, a more intuitive M2M sales section will reinvigorate the forum.

Mine says Hi too.

Beautiful watch and a great write-up. Thank you

à votre santé!

Very nice! Enjoy the vitamin D while it lasts

Nice one. Thanks for the shots!
How well does the lume on the hands match the dial markers? On the QC shots from Josh‘s site, the hands look a little darker.

Very nice indeed!
