Nice when it fades to pink !!! Very poetic how you feel about it. Don't ever sell it indeed.

Very nice story ! I would suggest that you contact Tribal as you're EU based. But, Ziggy would be a possibility too of course. Replacing the crystal is an easy thing but should be done very properly to save further water problems. And, yes, pls post some pics Cheers Stephane

Well looks like you're all set now ! Congrats Loonie. Cheers Stephane

Thanks Andy. Informative post that shows, if necessary, that we might be the only humans to spot the differences ! So, long life to our hobby and RWG

Well, the tropic for your 1665 should be a T39. There are flats (around 80 to 100$) and super domes (no quote here as it's a matter of luck but mine was 250$)

This is very interresting guys... So somewhere in mid september 2007 the MBW case back got better ! Well it still needs a lot of mods of course but it's a good base though.

Lonnie I really wonder why I didn't "create" a total heavy worn sub yet. I agree 100% with you: no scratches = fake. Can you please PM me and let me know your advices to create a completely destressed one ? Cheers Stephane

PS: please, tell me if this MBW tube is compatible with one GEN Crown........ Well, I don't think so. I allways had to replace the full set. But, yours seem a "new" MBW (My best watch).... Can I ask when you ordered and when you got this one ? (Pls I'm not looking for a "Paso is great, deliver fast, blabla" reply...) I wonder if MBK changed their supplier for case backs and if so if it will remain forever or just for one batch? Cheers Stephane

hmmm, that case back ??? Sorry if I didn't get it all (I'm french speaking) but is this a "new case back" on 1665 MBWs ? Stephane

I'm curious to look at the future of this: 12. For members who are not native English speakers....there is no need to be concerned about speaking with me

I saw Rolli's post about a Fer002 and decided to get that one on today.

Ah ah, smart man Josh ! With the hype ahead for your review, he will sell some great numbers

hmmm, put it in a table vise (with rubber protection)...it will even easier. Cheers Stephane

Wow, this thread comes back again Well, that watch doesn't exist anymore. I got my self a new one (see my sig). This one is currently being modded to become a fantasy one. ...and of course, the genuine box is still in my cabinet Cheers Stephane

Hi Laz, I made the test and my NoobMariner, with Asian mvt, changes at 23.55 ! Allthough it's not midnight, it swaps immediately from day one to day two... Cheers Stephane

Not the same V., not he same MBW Not MBW (special custom made like BT) Very old one from the bay So many GMT II out there...like subs Cheers Stephane

Hi V. Yes mine is sold. The general impression I have is good. I personaly don't like Jubilee, but why not if you do, fine of course. Having said that, I didn't see many GMT in real and might not be the best one to comment. From that picture the insert looks great to me, the dial too. I have a doubt on the cyclop position but, hey, we're really anal, remember that. I'm sure your dad will be happy. Cheers Stephane

Well I'm so happy to have mine ! Come on, aren't we smart enough to build beauties from scratch instead of poking on a genuine fake ?!

too late !!! I bought 3 super domes, paid 2 and finaly got one (Imagine how much that one costs now) How bad that is...one of these days I will say from who I had these problems by the way. It's has been 2 months only though, so I still give this person a chance to honour his word. Now, back to the topic: Again, it's a matter of giving your word. I did. So this baby will never be sold to anywone unless the former owner give me his green light. But, having said that, I do not want to sell it anyway ...more vintage should arrive soon ! Cheers Mr Nanuq

INDEED Mademoiselle Strap. It looks very nice, but 879$ ? Ok shipping is included and trackable worldwide. For that kind of money I would require that Laeticia Casta brings it personaly to my door (oops, to my living room). That is a dream for some TTK cutomers . Trackable worldwide...how sexy this is Thanks for keeping me updated. It is a very interresting world...the strap world. Cheers Stephane

It will: murphy's law. Keep it But if you change your mind PM me

V. Can you please do me a favor ? I would like to see these 800$ straps! I never imagined this might exist in our little rep world. I know there are because TTK once showed me a very nice French site. But hey, 800 is a hell of a budget isn't it ? Would you mind posting a picture and share with us... Thanks Cheers Stephane

Mine is much better for sure But not genuine, legit, or whatever

Trio, PT can get most of the watches you want ! So does Narika and TTK probably. Not seing them online does not mean they cannot have access to it. Just ask them. They are willing to make business, don't wworry Cheers Stephane

Cableguy, I would be more than happy to send you a 2836-2 and get your 2846. Let me know, Cheers Stephane
