It has been like that for at least 6 weeks where I am at. PLUS, it isn't just a straight scale either. Mine last 4 have ranged between $32 and $40 and I have NO idea what makes one time more expensive than another as the most expensive transfer was for the least amoutnof money.

At 23 yrs old, I had a sector and a Tag 1000 both of which were bought in a pawnshop just off of campus. There were so many fake Tags running around at the time I was always worried that people thought the Tag was fake. I miss that watch and laugh becuse the guy whom I sold it to still wears it even though the jubilee style bracelet is seriously spent. I could only dream of a Submariner as I had school loans out the ass.

This one

PM sent!

his bezels are the EXACT same as the one for $29 so save yourself the funds there. (it is the one on top, the other is the original TW best bezel before being upgraded) His inserts are hit or miss but he has replaced the ones that had only half full pearls the other look descent. (if you don't screw it up trying to thin it out) One set of hand from him was reallygreat but the other set had a too short second hand and the hands were flat with no curvature what so ever. [sorry no pic} The date discs are not to bad at all, better than the stock TW best (sorry for no straight on shot but I do not have one on my laptop and I am not at home this weekend) I have orderd one of his retaining rings but have not recieved it yet.

The absolute best rendition of "Lady Be Good" ever recorded. And a very good version of the very over played "Take 5" Arne Domnerus does an amzing job on sax and even better on the clarinet.

I am glad you like the watch! I LOVE the 217 and thanks for the extra crown gaurd.

So, basically unless it is a watch like the ferrari scudera with: 1. seconds at 9 o'clock 2. no chronos 3. no large center seconds hand You are limted to the asian movement if you can't find hands?

THANK YOU! I posted this question on the other forum but THIS is exactly what I needed to know. I needed to know which was the correct crown for my 16800 project and if the other was correct for a 1680. I have this one on my more modern TW best sub project just because it was new. It is beautiful but know I know it is incorrect: But I also still have one of this type crown that I got used. It is difficult to see in this pic but has the shorter wider coronet: I have a MBW 1680 on the way from TTK and I am VERY happy to know that I already have the crown for it! That is ONE LESS thing I will have to lay out funds for in it's modification.

That is an incredibly nice 1655 TTK! And considering decent reps are near impossible to find makes it all the more impressive. It looks like I am going to be addicted to this damn hobby!

ditto

forgot to say I will look tonight

Not off the top of my head and ebay is blocked from work. Good thing they don't know about this site. He was in isreal and had a TON of watch parts.

The crystal was $90 bucks on ebay. It has an almost invisible scratch. Too much?

My daily watch until I got my TW best in. Wonderful watch but the hands bug the crud out of me.
