Same here. Do not know the new Subs very well.
Rehaut is lined up at 12. Bezel insert appears to have the newer platinum paint, cyclops looks fairly centered, date is slightly left justified but decent. Looks like a nice watch.

Thanks Pan, and I agree on the pearl. Thought I had a nice gen sourced but just missed it. There is another seller that has them occasionally for fair price but has not had any lately. Sooner or later I will acquire one. May try the Ofrei in the meantime.

Great choice. Revo's are some of my favorite glasses of all time. I have one original pair of 840's left from high school and love them. Bought a couple off eBay but had to replace the lenses with aftermarket as they were to scratched up. They are still good but not as good as the Revo lenses. $52 is a great deal. I paid much more for the scratched up pairs. What is your source?

I decided to do a couple upgrades to my 5513. Sourced a gen nos 700 crown and tube still in packaging so she went back to dbane for installation and while she was there he did his amazing bevels as well. He sent me these pics today. I think the period correct crown and bevels really adds to the build.

Very sad to hear this. Alan was always helpful and a gentleman to do business with. Condolences to his family.

Very nice. A lot of work went into this build and your efforts have paid off with a beautiful piece. Now it's time to enjoy wearing it.

Personally I like this much better than the HS1.
This is a true work of art.
Gilt dial and hands with a dome crystal and coin edge bezel To top it off, look at those bevels and lug holes. Much better fusion of modern/vintage with these details from the original big crown.
I think this is beautifully executed.

Good question. I have a 2893 as well to replace a2836 in my Franken GMT. Did some research and have seen some builds with the 2893 but not much discussion on how it was done.

I am no watchsmith, but I would do the clasp for you. You pay shipping both ways and I will do it for free. Oh and FYI, if I bugger it up, I have spare TC clasps here....
