  2. My New Watch (Build) is Complete!

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Yes folks, my new Monte Carlo 7032 is finally complete. I spent a lot of time sourcing parts from all around the world. The heart of my beauty is a 70's Heuer 7734' but it had a 30 minute chrono. So I had to source the 3 parts needed to convert it to a 45 minute chrono. Not an easy task finding them that's for sure. After I finally got all of the parts I needed, off to Doctor Frankenstein, a.k.a.Mike (MD2020) for the build. Mike took the movement completely apart, cleaned it so good, it looked brand new again. Then using all of the parts I supplied, the build began. Mike even did an Awesome job on a vintage lume on the hands and dial. So here are a couple of quick pics of my new baby.

    I also had some additional work done by Mike on another watch, but I'll post that another day.

    Thanks Mike, your work is Outstanding.

  9. Watch winder because I'm lazy

    I have a dual winder myself. I also wish it could hold more. Just make sure you get one that has adjustable settings for every watch slot / holder.

    Mine I can set either holder for Turn-direction (CW, CCW, Both) and I can also set each for how many TPD (Turns-per-day) 650, 785, 950 or 1150.

    Great to have the options, so it will wind any watch.

  16. Zeleni Kukuruz banned?

    Well, it is at least "interesting" that both ZK and tomas consistently misspell "why" as "way"... :g:

    Yes this is 'somewhat' interesting reading, but Not really. Besides the misspelling, tomas has been here 4 years and Only has 94 post :g:

     

    I'm new here, but have been on many other forums for Years! If he really wants to go through with his 'plans', he will only get banned on every other forum too.

    I don't know Z, but if that's what he wants to do to his so-called 'friends' then I guess we don't really need him back or other members like'm.

    I'm not trying to [censored] anyone off here, like I said, I'm new here and don't know Z but this is all basic forum etiquette.

    Yeah, you could say Mike does a pretty good job. Here's my little project I sent him in many different pieces. And here is what he did with those pieces and a Dirty movement.
