They have never made the exact same watch in stainless and WG. The whores are just taking advantage of demand and shitting on their loyal customers.

New gen breitling parts purchased on ebay
elconquistador replied to tframo's topic in General Discussion
Bezel is gen. I have a gen Evolution bezel here that looks the same from the back. -
Had I thought this was a viable option, I probably would not have gotten a gen.

Just in. A fantasy BR03 from Trusty.

Thinking of selling all my watches for a Rolex Explorer
elconquistador replied to Big Dazza's topic in General Discussion
You can get a nice explorer II gen for around $4k which I think is more versatile. -
7750 stem removal is a piece of cake. Just don't push the release any harder than you need to.

Take off the crown / stem then use a cape cod to take burrs off the male threads getting the cloth in there with you fingernails. For some makes a big difference.

Cannot pay sellers - Any Bitcoin accepting?

Haha. Does he take monopoly money? Don't be the last one holding your pyramid coin. -
Is the crystal stepped like the gen? Would be awesome if the rep sapphire could replace my gen plexi.

Here are mine. Actually from Lancaster, PA (except for the cases) -
Ahhh this watch was made for a croc band. The with the band it reminds me of a Seiko. Still nice but looses something.

Should work. I briefly had a franken SMP chrono with a gen dial.

Vac service and turnaround update!
elconquistador replied to vaccum's topic in Vac's Modification Shop
I am a first time customer and Vac did a beautiful job on my 3717 that got a swiss movement, lume and a crystal upgrade. It took a little while (he did have a family issue during), but totally worth it. There are watches I did not plan to get because of bad lume that I now will get and pass on to Vac. -
Nice name BTW. Was HIV taken?

I had JAW in California make me a custom chromexil wallet for $65. Fantastic material, secret pocket for a wireless subway card and leather that will last a lifetime.

Montblanc Timewalker 7753 with OstriX Supreme strap
elconquistador replied to ricardmg's topic in Other Brands Area
Not kidding. I have 2 of the 7753s and had one 7750 version before it. Compress the strap a little against one lug and use a spring bar tool with a curved end. The new strap you put in will obviously be much easier on and off because it will not be nearly as inflexible. It can't be. -
Montblanc Timewalker 7753 with OstriX Supreme strap
elconquistador replied to ricardmg's topic in Other Brands Area
The stars are decorative. It uses spring bars like every other watch. Because the rep strap is stiff, getting a tool in there is tough. Same at the buckle end, springbar. -
Breitling Super Avenger ETA 7750 with Dial
elconquistador replied to 436NR's topic in The Breitling Area
Looks great. I have a similarly frankened BCE. -
Are you in the Us?. I am pretty sure I have at least one properly working A6497. Pay shipping and you can have it.
