Dear all, Your opinion is needed here. I was about to post this dial for sale as I got myself a Noob Explorer II with a white dial and decided to forget about building a franken one. Genuine Rolex Explorer II Dial This dial has been sold to me as genuine by a long term member of this community. The member has not been active lately and I

Wow Bobby: amazing renovation. I miss it now Nah, congrats Bobby, this is a wonderfull project.

Some fantastic photos again tonight. I wish I had your skills guys for wrist shots and some more time ... Put this one on the wrist tonight for a restaurant with mon amour

This morning:

I see you have space problems Lani. My trunk is empty most of the time. Do not hesitate to send some over here Fantastic collection you have there! Amazing, really.

I'm afraid I'll get both

Oh Freddy, Oh My God, ...yes I love. And pls feel free to send the 25 meg file per email Today is 09/09/09 ...and I must decide what to do: Buy or not buy? Yoko and Paul have found a new way to make quick bucks by releasing two record box set instead of one !!! And, allthough we're all angry, we're all gonna buy both So, I will have to sell some watch part and watches to fund that purchase !!!

That is a masterpiece Bobby. I like it very much and yes the dial is amazing I think the bracelet will be fitted to the watch tomorrow

I love your sig text ... So, what's up with this beauty? Any story to share ???

Wow, I'm impressed by this rich and unusual WC!. A lot of beauties again and some very artistic photos. @SilverSpeed: I never realised how elegant that watch is untill now. Thanks for sharing.

My special one, on brown leather this time

Hmmm, that is not a good news We'll see in the future if it happens to me too. So far no problems though

Oh, that. Well no I guess. But let's face it, if you know the seller, and he is like me offering a 100% refund within the 15 days of transaction, where is the risk?

I guess you mean refund Pug. Well, if there are no fees anyway, to refund, the seller uses the same way to pay the buyer back, that's it.

Hi all, Some of us already know this but I thought it is important to post it here. Basicaly it is absolutely possible to avoid fees for the recipient of a payment. Here is a screen shot of my PayPal. It's in french, but I presume all is pretty much easy to understand. Here is how you make payments usualy. All you have to do is select the "personal" tab instead of the "Buy" one. I do select Other. I made several pmts this way and none of my sellers got charged for fees. As easy as 123! So please, try it. All the best, Stephane

You are right It deserve a gen 93150!!!

Congrats Alberto. You will probably keep it forever and love it forever. My excellent MM Great White is now in Tribal's hands for some enhancements too. Can't wait to see it back Have a good time with your new beauty !!!

+1 here! A service is a must when a movement is so far from giving the right time!

Amazing as allways Trib. As BT said, it's hard to believe this is not a genuine Submariner. Bravo! Stephane PS: I might have an interresting challenge for you one of these days

Oh no! You should do a group shot one of these days...

Splendid result! What else can be said. Congrats to both of you. I see a problem here though... Each time I think I'm done with projects you come with a new gem

I'll shop for the same items as you recommend Gio. At the end of the day, this might be the only action I'm able to take myself for my watches. Thanks a bunch for your help! All the best, Stephane

Thanks for the nice comments guys. It's cool to wear a genuine watch which feels rare and unique

Yesterday & Today (hmm, sounds like a Beatles album!)

Dear all, Here is a very special watch to me. There are good reasons for me to say that, and some of you know what I mean. Thanks again to the gang. This is a Schuhren watch, hand made by Andy, assembled by Emily, coming in a luxury packaging. The watch description German made 42mm, 3 piece 316 stainless steel case Genève stripes finished hand wind movement. Water resistant to 5 ATM German made leather band with Tang Buckle Sapphire crystal with double AR coating Display screwed case back The movement 21600 beats per hour. It is based on a Unitas 6497 (base plates from Seagull) and skeletonised over the period of a month. It was then finished and gold plated 3 times. “The idea is to show as much of the working movement as possible so that it is all in the open and people can see how it works” said the watchmaker. Photo courtesy of Andy. The going train was made with polished and brushed gears to show contrast between different gears. The canon pin is polished as well. The movement throughtout has full pearlage from the dial side to under the plates! Photo courtesy of Andy. And here is one more, cased in my watch. The watch’s photos As you noticed, the watch I have is a pilot one From all the custom made watches, this version is the one we preferred when meeting at the Brussels 2009 GTG. The lume is perfect, no comment to add to this photo… The big crown is giving it a very “solid feel”. The dial is clear and easy to read. It gives all the information you want to see to read the time. I know that it sounds an obvious goal for watches to tell the time, but this watch does it right away. Epilogue If you want more information about Schuhren, visit their web site. I can only say that I like this watch very much, and not only because it is build by Andy and has been assembled by Andy’s daughter…Mademoiselle Emily. I simply like the watch! Oh, forgot to mention, mine is number 16 from the new born watch brand Schuhren. Cheers Stephane
