I sold all my super frankens and parts and now I have enough money to buy a gen Daytona, not a PN of course

The dials used by Bamford and TM are original Rolex that get reworked or made new with swiss ink?

It seems that in Alaska there's an abundance of vintage Rollies

$1200 was for the complete set of papers, boxes tags etc

For the watch parts alone I'm in at around 5K

You can check my build log I've updated yesterday

I still have to find a modder for when I'll have the case.

Slay with his amazing builds really put a dent in the explorer fund but I couldn't resist the tropical 1680. Except for my Suunto since I parted out and sold the 1675 I have no watch and have to rely on my cell phone to tell time and that makes me sick

An update on the parts gathered

Phong's mid case and case back are the last items left on the shopping list.

It's all in pieces still, I started a build log. I am currently trying to find a modder. It's all gen except for case and case back that are Phong's. In the meantime I just  bought Slay's tropical 1680 as a daily wearer.

I just would like a full set

Without spending a fortune

My Exp 1655 full set all gen Rolex costed me $1,200

I keep coming back to this thread, really an amazing work

Are you going to sell it?

They would sell like hot cakes

If it fits a gen movement I'm in for one

It looks amazingly close

That is really baffling, they should have enough evidence to shut him down. Some poor sod will get burned....

eBay makes a good 9% commission on sales though so that's why they might let this [censored] run and then, when only somebody starts to cry and opens a case they apply the buyer protection that will take a few weeks to resolve while the $$$ sits in eBay's bank account generating interest until they issue a refund

I can't believe that POS has watchers for that watch, can't they just look at a gen picture and compare? That guy needs his ass kicked

The photocopy is the best!

I didn't go past the first 2 pictures, and just saw it LMAO

Sent from my iPhong using a rep app

it's one of the worst fake I ever seen, and he's selling it for half the price... Tell him to look at the others on sale on eBay and compare just the dials... I guess that asking for a picture of the movement is out of discussion...

some ppl have no shame I reported it, hope that eBay pulls it right away it has too many watchers already.

I couldn't care less, it's a beautiful timeless dial design that because of it's clean simplicity would never bore me.

I could be interested, PN white dial steel bezel.

Thank you
