For me this seems like a noob v1. First of all the pearl looks not gen at all and the crown has not a gen finish in my eyes. What do you guys think? It is just sold for 6300$. If I am right this makes me pretty angry!!! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-Submariner-Date-Ceramic-/370907631536?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&_trkparms=aid%3D333005%26algo%3DRIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D17824%26meid%3D1678078771631928356%26pid%3D100009%26prg%3D8234%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D5%26sd%3D251347287613%26&nma=true&si=8fpnYuW%252BW8TRWykRPZBLIKwK478%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc cheers

They definitely fit but in my opinion it doesn't look as nice as the 16610 on a nato. But nevertheless your choice so upload a wristie

Thanks for your very interesting info! Always keen to learn new stuff. Im not that long into this hobby but I just bought some essential stuff to open a watch and replace hands, dial, movement and so on. Maybe raising my funds a little bit and start a franken in the near future! Good to know that there are experts like you around who are so helpful. I appreciate that!

Ok thanks for the info! Is a cheap of the bay enough for this task?
-
Thanks for your answer! So here are all photos I can get. Its a local Swiss seller and he has 98 out of 99 positive feedbacks but no clue what his former auctions were. So he states that these are orig. parts for rolex ref. Model 14060-M or 14060. Basically I only need the black lunette for my tc sub i wanna acquire. So would this one fit the maxi dial tc sub?
-
First of all I would appreciate if an expert could tell me wheter this is gen or not and moreover if 200usd is a good price for the whole stuff? The "40" one the bezel looks strange, doesn't it? The pearl looks very gen to me only this "40" seems strange. Appreciate your inputs

That exactly was my initial thought no seriously is a crystal press inevitabely or not?
-
Very nice and all the best! Is this the limited jacques piccard edition?

After I have removed the outer Ar of my Omega CrPo 42mm due to some severe scratches in the Ar I am pretty unhappy with the result. I wonder now whether a gen crystal fit or if I should buy one from Andrew for 55usd. I definitely going to change the crystel. Is there anyone who knows wheter a gen crystal fits with the gasket or not? And moreover do I really need a crystal press or is it possible to press the crystal out and in by hands with considerable force? Thanks for your help

Thanks for your comments. I definitely recommend this strap and for 118$ you can't go that wrong. As aforementioned the quality and feel is pretty nice and the fact it's double sided gator leather is pretty neat in my eyes. Oh and I forgot to mention about Toro. Communication, payment and QC pictures was fast as hell! First day order, second day payment confirmed (via WU) and third day I had my QC pictures in the mail The shipment over Spain took it's time but I'm used to that. And the received product is just great.

It is nothing new that pam 111 v3 is a super rep and of outstanding quality, but when I unwrapped it I was just blown away! I guess there are plenty of reviews of the watch therefore I don't wanna stick to that to much. Let the pictures speak for themselves Rather more interesting for you guys is probably toros brown gator strap. It is double sided gator leather of excellent quality and nice color. Personally I like brown but the variety of color is quite nice. The stitching is 9/10 so we see it's quality handycraft. The feel to it was slightly stiff the first day but first of all thats normal and secondly it gets softer and extremly confirtable after some time of usage. Over and above that the lug and tang buckle fitment is excellent. Enjoy the pictures and personally I can just recommend this strap from Toro!

Nice collection! Never heard of your delivery as ssteel mentioned. Never had any problems with swiss customs? And where did you buy the grey 3714?
-
Yes it has but not comparable to newer models. Unfortunately i didn't take a picture of that. I was told that the lugs look like that cause the watch originally came on a leather strap. It was my grandfather who changed to the milanese mesh. That's why your lugs are different most probably. Thanks for the info about the calibre I definitely read about it. Moreover thanks for your tips about the IWC forum. Honestly I don't care about its worth I rather wanna share this beauty and get to know more about it. Thank you guys for your comments and helpful inputs!

Since my grandfather knows about my interest in watches he showed me his most favorite dress watch. It s an IWC he bought back in 1958 at IWC factory in Schaffhausen itself. It used to have a leather band but he had it changed to a gen gold mesh strap many many years ago. I only know it s handwound and that it works since ever he has it. Crystal is plexi but not one single scratch since he only wears it for a night out. Maybe someone of you guys know more about the model or the movement specs. Would be interesting! Enjoy the pic

Would be interesting to have a detailed review about this sub. Nevertheless I am no expert bit for me it doesn't seem like a maxi dial right? So the regaut engraving is wrong in this case, isn't it?
-
It doesn't make waiting any better...but nice pics though!
-
Haha these nails are scary hahaha..no but seriously toro is super fast and very kind..confirmed the qc now hope you get yours soon..cant wait either...

I just ordered a pam 111noob v3 from toro and transaction until now is 10/10! Pretty fast reply and ultra fast payment aswell as QC pictures! Nevertheless I would highly appreciate to have the pam verified as a noob v3 from a panerai expert. For me it seems v3 but since its my first high quality pam I would really appreciate the kind of help Ps. Will post a review about the watch with toros gator strap on it Cheers

Ok thats good news! Hmm I am pleased with the bp strap..nevertheless the noob must be a bit higher quality acordingly to a lot other members. Never saw it my own though. Moreover I am not quite sure if the SEL would be that great with the noob strap on the bp case..So my advice is to try the bp strap first and if you feel like you need a better one try the noob..many TDs are able to source it for you! And please add some pics when you receive ur baby
-
Hmm I bought mine about 3 months ago and there the issue was not fixed. Maybe it is now but you can never go wrong with the noob clasp since the quality is better anyway. Post some pics when you receive it! The bp is a keeper thats for sure
-
Yup little off but minimal..nevertheless i would ask for a new qc picture..
-
Looks neat! Love my bp aswell but definitely need to upgrade the band..do you have noob v1 or v2 clasp and does the band fit the sel as nice as the bp does or not?
-
So go for andrews sub c bp with asian eta. I own this one and i can more than recommend it! Let us know what you have chosen..
-
Thanks for the info. Do you think its better AR than the one on the CrPo? Mine got bad scratches pretty fast thats why I removed it but now it looks not as nice anymore...
