  1. FYI, Costco sells Ray Bans for very good prices. I bought a pair of 2140's and 2132's both polarized recently. They had several models to choose from. And you get the comfort of the costco return policy if broken....
  2. Hi there, I see a few options for you. Buy some watches and contribute some posts to build up your profile so folks will be more likely to deal with you and get the DD down the road after you have established yourself. If you are set on a franken Day Date, search all the rep forums sales areas frequently looking for a member to member sale of a mymanmatt build or similar. They do come up from time to time. I sold one a few months ago. Just for reference nice DD builds are generally 1K+. Although you may run into the same problem M2M with folks being leary because you are new. Try and connect with some of the senior members here and get one of them to vouch for you. One of the issues you are running into is that people have filed Pay Pal disputes against members and kept the watch and the money, so many of us are less likely to deal with people we do not know or have not dealt with in the past.
  3. Here you go, a very underrated band from the 70's and one of my all time favorite songs. Who is it? "With all darkness closin' in, will the light reveal your soul? One sweet kiss on your clay cold lips, I'll not sleep you'll never know Where do we go? Where do we go? Where do we go from here?"

  6. Gen should fit. I took a dremel to my TC bracelet and softened it up. Especially the clasp. There are some threads about treading bracelets here. The clasp I sanded down quite a bit and then brushed and polished it. Feels and works much better. Sent from my droptop using telepathy [emoji466]️

  8. You see them on VRM and other places but generally prices are high. I found mine over on RWI. There are a couple of guys over there who have lots of parts and are more reasonably priced. Here is one that is available on VRM but priced too high IMHO. http://www.network54.com/Forum/207673/message/1431369654/FS-+LOTS+of+assorted+Vintage+SUB+and+GMT+Inserts
  9. Great pictures S. Hard to pick a favorite, but if I had to, probably the DJ second to last photo on the rocks. The way the sun hits the dial and lights up the diamonds is really nice. Sorry to hear about the ex. Good luck in court.

  13. The members build the best ones. Look in the members sales area. Mymanmatt has built me a few and Stone P has had some for sale lately. Sent from my droptop using telepathy [emoji466]️
  14. Wholly smokes dbane, just incredible work here. Now I am wishing I would have had you cut holes and bevels on my TC case. Man that looks great.
  15. Thank you friend, but she is a franken...That is a mymanmatt build with genuine goodies.
  16. Thanks guys. Yes she needs a bath. Just unpacked it and took a couple of quick pics before heading out for work. Highly recommend Michael Young "Classic Watch Parts". Great work and service and actually the turn around time was pretty quick. Price was very reasonable. Wife and I leave for a work trip/vacation on Thursday morning. First leg is a "leadership conference" for work at a swanky resort in the San Diego area. Best work trip of the year. Basically get paid to play golf, use the spa and eat at nice restaurants. Then we head over to Palm Springs on the 19th and will stay there 7-10 days at our timeshare condo. Looking forward to some time off. So hopefully by the time I get back, this baby will be ready for some wrist time. Hard to believe this watch is near completion. Been a really enjoyable process. I learned a lot and made some really great connections with people along the way which is the best part. Thank you for tolerating all the posts......
  17. Awesome looking piece. Congrats. Much prefer these over the modern version.
  18. Thanks CC The ultra close up on the the crown looks great on my phone, but not so good here. Not sure if the compression blurs those but they look really clear in native format.

  21. Bracelet is back from MY. Man he does great work. Looks and feels like new. I think dbane is putting the finishing touches on this so should not be long now. Sent from my droptop using telepathy [emoji466]️
