  1. Have you tried to contact Ingod44 ? He got some nice dial and maybe can make a custom order
  2. Whoopy is selling a BEAUTIFUL 1680 red sub dial atm, and he also has a 5517 t milsub dial and a gilt 5512 dial. Whoopy dials are IMO the best in the rep and aftermarket market
  3. Sorry my mistake .. It is not a rail dial and it is not from ingod... I just took a glance at it .. You are completely right !!
  4. It has a beautiful ingod44 rail dial ! InGod doesn't make them anymore and it is the closest rail dial I have seen !
  5. You can find cheap 580 that take gen springs bars over eBay at wholesaleoutlet
  6. InGod Paul Newman dial are just rubbish, but the 1666 rail dial is near to perfection I must admit ! I have a Whoopy 5514 dial I have to say it is the best comex 5514 dial you can get
  7. Firstable there is no AD offering a Daytona with 7750 as there is no gen Daytona with 7750, and AD's are supposed to sell gen watches. and honestly buddy this watch looks awful, totally incorrect in every way, if it was offered by an ad and above that as a gen, just run from it This watch is totally fake in every way, it is not a good rep, more like a canal street piece of junk
  8. Gen from chrono shop aren't an option ?
  9. What are you building by the way ? and what will be the specs ?
  10. Thanks for the advice, the price of those bracelets are increasing so fast ! And I think the must have for a Franken vintage sub/SD is at least the gen 93150 buckle because of the coronet (PT one is just awful as the cartels one even though it is stamped 93250)
  11. I can not wait to see the pictures I am also thinking about getting one or just build a Franken bracelet, with gen clasp, aftermarket 580 that I already got with PT 93150 links
  12. How about its feeling ? Does it feel like a cartel hollow bracelet or more cheaper ?
  13. Hi Check wholesaleoutlet's store on eBay for aftermarket 80 end pieces, they accept gen fat spring bars (2mm*20mm)
  14. I don't know why all the factories stopped making it, they all produce the 93250 now as PT, cartel, yuki and others .. (And their 93250 isn't even accurate with removable end pieces)
  15. Very nice Whoopy mk2 dial Does the case have a faux or working HEV ? (Like phong and yuki cases does ? )
  16. Yes pictures would help us.. I hope everything will be just fine for you as those bracelets are insanely expensive nowadays
  17. Thanks mate for your support I have sold the watch and decided to not age anymore lol and I figure out that I prefer well conserved vintage and refurbished better than those aged watches

    Saw it on sale few days ago, lovely I really wanted to buy it lol but you did so I congrats you and I thank you because it wasn't cheap As it is a DW/spinmaster it is perfect for what it is and the those are the best Daytona rep so far besides the Franken builds based on phong cases Enjoy it and wear it in good health mate !
  19. I saw the picture of the LV hanging on a piece of wood in RWG in a build contest thread, beautiful ! Wear it in good health mate
  20. Lol I accept critics guys this is a cheap rep that I have purchase to improve my skills and those are my first mods.. Of course I would never do that on a Franken built (I have a Franken GWSD based on a yuki case on the road)
  21. The dial and hands ? No the dial and hands mod is good trust me but the insert is in very bad condition I need to order another one and refurbishing the bracelet isn't a big deal, refurbished will make it look old
  22. Hi guys, Yesterday night, I was bored so I decided to take my DRSD and add some aging on the dial and hands so I want to show you the result: This was when I received the watch from Josh: So when I received it, I decided to install a tropic 39 service dome instead of the stock tropic 39 super dome and fade slightly the bezel insert with bleach, here was the result: The dial looked too much new to me so I decided to remove it from the case, and disassemble the dial and hands from the movement, I have heard a lot about the hoven as an aging process for dial and hands but I decided to try something new on my own. So I have applied some fire with a lighter against the dial and hands and here was the result, of course each time I "burnt" the dial I wiped it with a piece of tissue, I have also done some work on the case and bracelet but didn't finish I wanted to add some old scratches marks and dings, and after that polishing and brushing it again and again but I don't have the materials atm. Unfortunately I have damaged the insert while trying to install it I have bent it so impossible to put it back in the bezel, so while trying to reinstall it, I really damage it and now looks like it has been beaten lol, I will purchase another insert and fade it again with bleach. I have also smoked the crystal to a brown color: What I love particularly about the hands is the lume which cracked in the second hand. Tell me what you think
