  1. its a bit of work.. make sure the dial fits into the case.. sometimes you have to trim the dial all the way around to make it work. You will have to glue the dial to the movememnt. not sure about the issue with the datewheel. Did it line up with the original rep dial? What watch are you putting the dial into? If its a cheaper chinese rolex then sometimes the datewindow is too far to the right then theres not much you can do except use a different movement. heres my MBW with gen dial.
  2. HAHAHA thats a good one! interesting pic freddy...
  3. excellent comparison! and the answer to a very comon question. the white gold has a beautiful warm color doesnt it?? yumm and you can also tell by the weight if you are holding it... I dont think i've seen a platium watch in real life to compare Does this white gold /ss comparison work for other brands as well? I know rolex mixes their own gold. Would a white gold Breitling also have this warmer red color? Next time i have access to a white gold breitling i will "try" to take some comparison pics to show the difference.
  4. How you doin? lol welcome to RWG
  5. i noticed the older 16610's were getting cheaper... closer to the $3k mark... but i cant see vintage collector pieces falling in value
  6. I will for sure take TWO of the THIN flat top 3's for my MBW vintages... ETA2846 of course... one in silver if possible if not both
  7. i dont like the look of the SEL's underneath.. fit it pretty rough. that was the tell tale sign for me. lug holes look good. pearl is nice... dizz
  8. this is one of the best shows on tv. I dont get it where i live so i have to download it. Jeremy Clarkson is so funny. And i cant believe the zonda beat the veyron around the track... but that new spyder sure is NICE. Didnt like the hard top at all but the convertable is dead sexy.
  9. i drilled mine to 1.5mm to make them look super worn out the the springbars are nice and loose... but.. on a newer model with less wear i agree with the guys 1.2 and you can even get away with 1.3mm if you have to.
  10. this is why im gunna figure out how to easily watermark all my pics. everything is way to easy to steal... very sad
  11. youve got some nice watches there and even nicer straps!! I like the hornback gators on pams. its just an awesome combination.
  12. i assume you can get these pins from some please like wholesaleoutlet990 or the usual parts places? Ive never looked for these but i do actually need one or two to resurect a few clasps...
  13. just take it to any place that has a watch fixer guy and get him to toss in a new pin Like Nanuq says... easy repair
  14. 1:1 is marketing [censored]... it all depends which factory is building it... a good source tells me that there is yet one more version due to be released before the end of the month. Thats all i know right now... It might have the same problems as all these other versions but who knows...
  15. rumor has it that there is yet ONE more version coming out this month... the one we've been waiting for...
  16. yeah its not really any better than the other versions.. the bezel insert is terrible. I thiink you need to buy all THREE versions and make a franken to get a proper one.. just like in the old MBW noobmariner switch-a-roo days haha
  17. get an asain movement noobmariner.. they are about $100 and amazingly accurate. Anything else in that price range in JUNK. To really get anything better than a noobnmariner, you need to step up to MBW or WM9 but then you are getting up to $500-600 range dizz
  18. then pick up a phone book from a neighboring larger town or use google
  19. wow you can sure build some SILLY combinations haha
  20. very sad.... that bezel insert it terrible... what are these people thinking when they build these things?
  21. beautiful watch.. i am still looking for the right version for me....
  22. @cableguy - you're gunna start a daytona also? haha.. they seem to be a popular item right now!

    Comex love

    not the best dial thats for sure. Markers are horrible. Im sure this will one day turn into non-comex branded 5514.. Keep the caseback but using a reg 5513 dial.
  24. thats scarey.. good thing nobody was hurt.. could have been a psycho.
