Congrats to the two winners. Can't wait to see a finished product. Thanks again Whoopy's
for all of your hard work on this project.

Ha, the seller answered my question "You are correct. I noticed this and took it to my watch maker and the watch has been repaired. It is like new."
Really, so now he's sent it to his watch maker and had it repaired during his 6-day auction but Never mentions it in the AD!

I reported it as well. I hope someone does not shell-out over $2100 for a fake. I also asked the seller "how can you say this is in like new condition,
when the 7 o'clock marker has fallen off and is sitting at the bottom of the case".
Let's see if I can an answer before the auction ends in 1 hour!

The 6 & 9 look like crap. Case back is missing the Omega Logo engraving too.
Plus what's going on with the marker at 7 o'clock?

I'd be interested in one for my 1680 project.

UPDATE:
As of now, 6 orders have been completed. Once the remaining 10 have been logged, I will send the custom brass dials to the printing factory. In addition, once the rest of the orders have been confirmed, I will be raffling off two 20mm isofrane-type bands (of my creation) to the preorder-ers who have helped realize this project!

Sweet, nice offer Whoopys. Good luck to all who are on the pre-order list.

As you all may know, the Ploprof V2 only really has one mod that is needed. That would be the Bezel Lume.
On the V2 version, the factory lume is done on the bezel ring and not on the insert. So when looking at it, you
can see the lume is sunken down below the insert. In this before picture, you can see it if you look at the dots
between the 50 and the 10 on the bezel, you can see the lume is under the insert. You can also notice it in the
top triangle.
Now after the insert was removed and lume was applied to the back-side of it, you can clearly see the difference here:
OK, so now for the Money-Shot. I only walked outside to get the mail, and with about 45 seconds of natural sunlight, this is what it looked like when I came back into the house.
Thanks to MD2020 for another great mod!

Thanks for all your hard work to recover the site quickly.
As a IT guy, I understand how bad things can get quickly and how hard it
can be recovering data.
Thanks,

*** STOP *** If you want to place a Dial Order, please add you name to the Per-Order list on
This post >>>>> http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/160148-whoopys-dial-project-preorder-list/
Adding your name in this post is confusing the numbers of dial request.

Sorry guys, my wristie pics are going to be of the same watch for a while.
Can't seem to put anything else on in the mornings.
But this is a new pic just taken a few minutes ago.

Keep the Daytona. It's a beauty and like others have said, you don't really run into these in the wild as often.
I'd love to own your Daytona, but even your Franken is probably out of my league.

Lovely watch. Is it the photos or is the cyclops / crystal installed a couple of degrees rotated anti-clockwise?
I think it's the angle of the picture.
Thanks for the Congrats. I think this be on my wrist for quite-while.
So I will apologize if my wristies will all be the same for the few weeks.
