Nice write up here. I have a Joey B bezel assembly and insert sitting in my window aging. Sooner or later I will start acquiring other parts. One thing though, had anyone been able to buy anything from InGod recently. I thought I read somewhere that they are no longer in business. If that is the case the dial is going to be an issue. One of the reasons I have not moved much on this.

Very nice build. One of my all time favorite models.

Shipping wise it was my fault. Took a good 4 weeks for a piece to get from US to Australia on an M2M sale. It was somewhat expensive piece so the buyer and myself were both sweating pretty good. No tracking, no nothing, it was the first piece I sold outside of US.....I was ready to give a refund when it showed up. Then I recently used the same shipping place to send a piece to UK and once again no tracking for like 2 weeks. It finally left LA yesterday. This time I paid for USPS priority international and it is still taking forever. Needless to say I will never use that shipping store again. Problem was it was the weekend and I wanted to get it out. Been better off waiting until Monday and just going the post office...the buyer would have received it sooner. For receiving, 4-5 weeks is the longest. Now on some modding work......I have waited months.

I like this list but would add any explorers from the 50's to current. And a 11613. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Looks great. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Never heard of them. We have a member on the forum who builds awesome custom diamond pieces. He built my friend a Franken day date that had diamond bezel and markers and it is beautiful. Not my thing but the work is impeccable. I posted pics of it a few months ago. If you do a search you can locate the thread. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Will do. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Cool piece. Who makes it? Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

TC guarantees his products for a year. I bought one in March when he had some issues with the movements. I sent it back to him and he replaced the movement for no charge. It did take some time to get it back but nice to see him stand behind his products. New movement is working great but it's only been a week or so. TC is first class professional.

Yes, that T52 you have there is one of my favorites. Hard to believe the consistency will be the same moving forward. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Lately I am only interested in vintage pieces, but of the modern Rolex's that is a good choice.

That makes sense. Really had not thought of that. There is more activity so more to handle. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.

Elegant and classy. Nice choice. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.
