Look at my group shot pictures above, all my watches are always synchronized Pics from my DRSD are old ones. BTW, let me congratulate you for your job on dials cause it's a real pleasure to look at it and compare it with gen pictures without be frustrated because of flaws

Hey Whoopy, what do you mean "correct date", you mean matching the date of the post or correct date font?
-
Great piece, where is the dial coming from?

Here is my baby Specs: MBW Case, Caseback and Bezel construction + insert Whoopy Mark 2 DRSD Dial Yuki hands Swiss ETA Gen Superdome T39 Ofrei pearl Case work (bevel reshaping, CG reshaping, gen spec lug holes) and aging done by Rolojack that built it perferctly on any side. He even faded the insert as i like it. Onto the pics: Tapatalked

Dots placement are not ok almost everywhere, fonts is not ok especially on 2's and 8's and 7's Doesn't worth $200 to me

1) Let's say you bought it $800, Live happy with it and think you bought a Gen one at a bargain price. 2) Let's say you bought it $2000, can you live with a reasonnable doubt with regards to this expense? Personnally if I were you and be in the 1st situation, I would be more than happy!!! Again, the price you paid it will solve your dilemma

Anybody purchase one of these "Genuine" cases? How art they?
davids100 replied to whoopy12's topic in The Rolex Area
For me the case construction is pretty decent but the engraving is a total giveaway. 8 in 1680 is horrible, all Es have the same issue i.e all three lines have the same lengh and you can see in the same line numbers engraved exactly the same where on gen you'll never find 2 digits written the same way in a reference number or a serial number.

Nice combo dbane!! As I said, in pictures this looks very attractive. Do you wear it often as is or do you prefer the SS bracelet?
-
I have a lot of different Nato both in colors and material and always I have the same feeling rising: it looks great on pics but when I wear a Rolex on a Nato strap I feel I'm missing something. It's weird, always the same story, looking at beautiful pics on forums or blogs, try the same combo on mines, wear it for few hours and put the SS band back on the watch. Got a Bulang and Sons Vintage brown leather, put it on my DRSD or my 7032 Monte Carlo, very beautiful. More beautiful in the watch box than on the wrist.

I say send it to me ASAP Look, whatever it is, it does the job. Now if you ask Gen or Franken... hard to tell for sure without a x10 view on the printing. So my guess is to this point of precision who cares if it wasn't a Gen? The price you paid for it probably the answer
-
So I finally installed a Gen T39 on mine. Double pains: price and installation itself. On my old MBW there was a retaining ring that required a huge strengh to be fitted. Here is the result: So what did I use the Gen T19 that was previously installed on it?? I put it on that babe: Tapatalked
-
Great list of parts for your next and last build. Great project here. What about the hands? Did you source a Gen handset as well?
-
Hey Freddy, I bought both myself straight to the two sellers watchNY and Demesys and they are 100% identical. Tapatalked
-
as long as it's below $180 you should go for it cause it's the price you'll get from WatchNY if you buy it to them. Go for it, it fits a Gen Tropic 21 smoothly without needing to shave anything (where with DW bezels you have to shave either the crystal or the bezel)
-
By the way you are probably talking about this eBay item: http://cgi.ebay.fr/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=201153941840&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 And it is indeed a WatchNY bezel sold by this seller that had few of them in sotck. I bought one of theirs myself and compared it to my WatchNY ones, 100% identical. Best aftermarket bezel for the money. Should end around $130 (WatchNY sells it $180)
-
WatchNY as well for me, I got two of them. The tell on these is the side sitting from the plastic to the steel
-
Need a side view to be sure
-
That's the same one on mine so. I want the high rehaut effect so I ordered a Gen T39. Here is mine: Tapatalked
-
Chuck I am about to install a Gen T39 on mine and I didn't expect to sand anything cause my watch is an old MBW one. What do you mean by sanding the retaining ring? Bezel one or is there a plastic ring around the base of the crystal? dbane883, your crystal looks like a Service dome. Is it a service T39 or a Superdome with height reduction? Tapatalked
-
Nice trio there What is the origin of the 3 6 9 dial? Where did you get the turquoise bracelet?
