where did you get the DJ andhowmuch?

where did you get your black-dial DJ and how much?

I have never had them do any work yet. Maybe they won't ... but. firstly, how would they know. What they will get is not the whole watch. They are going to get just the metal parts which are to be plated, with no representation of what it is. Secondly, why would they care? They are a plating house. They don't really care about watches.

Maybe they won't. But maybe we will see. I have a Rolex Platinum President inbound to me now. After a littl time I may send that one up to them to have it platinum plated. We'll see.

ah i see. but if you want the bracelet, they will see the insignia, and if you send the head, they'll see the dial.

are you sure artisan plating will plate a rep?

does anyone have one that they have from an unfinished project or whatever? my friend got me a dj from china unfortunately the case/bracelet is crap. plus i like the oyster bracelet anyway. thanks/

omeega i tried to respond to your PM about the SMP but looks like your inbox is full. please pm me as soon as you can regarding the SMP. thanks! i would just like to see some pictures of it and price/payment options.

3x mag is definitely more real-like than the crappy 1.5x on most reps.

besides cousins? thanks. interested in buying one to put in a dj i got from rwi.

raijor if you ever need a buyer for the black with romans then i might be available

wtf.. $23.15 for a rep with ETA?

anyone know where i can get one cheap? they're so expensive- around 20 dollars for a date wheel! or anyone have surplus they would like to sell? thanks!

DESPERATELY! does anyone have a spare one, or would care to recommened where to get one? thanks.

i know the dial is crappy but i'm getting a new one anyways. this looks like the exact watch i got.

but the dial is wrong, compared to the caseback and clasp. it has the regular clasp and caseback. i opened it and it looked like it had a gen ETA 2836-2. i saw markings, but not sure the model. it looked like 2836-2. i saw the ETA insignia too. im wondering where i can get the wave dial and datewheel since this one is wrong (so maybe not a real eta?) and if i can take the hands off using ordinary tweezers? thanks.

looks real.. either that or a really good one.

some quartz chronos have sweep second hands. take some seikos for example. but dont know about subdial spacing and etc.

wow that is really weird. mine is 6 inches exactly yet my rep datejust fits perfect. i have 2 extra links on mine and it's set on the 4th hole. weird.

i have a 6 inch wrist also, but my old dj rep fit me. i had 2 extra links on it, and set to the 4th hole from the outside. it was pretty tight too.

if only you could take the best of both and combine both to make the.....

NIPMARINER!

now RWI is down too! or at least it is for me.

ah, i actually had a rep of this as my very first rep. i loved it, it kept good time, but the flaw was that it was too new (markers being pure white) and the crystal being mineral, and pretty much it looked brand new. got it in vietnam. loved it until the rotor literally unscrewed and fell off.

of waiting for a model to come in stock! right now i'm waiting for WBK to stock more asian SMPs. i wonder what the quality is like.
