  1. good to know!!! I never thought of that but i guess you do need all the parts to make it work.
  2. This will prob be my next purchase for sure did you go for the asian or ETA movement? Im gunna get the asian copy incorrect hand stack version.
  3. so your not going to tell us how you did it? lol nice CG work. looks GOOD
  4. wow i dont remember seeing that! nice work Polexpete Are there any noticable flaws on the SSD dial? Afterall it is a noobfactory dial and pretty darn good as is. Im wearing my SSD right now and i dont see anything that really stands out as a flaw on my dial compared to this pic edit - now that i look at it.. the white printing is a little "brighter" on the gen.. and the 5 min marker lines are a little bolder on the gen.
  5. yay MBW franken!!! haha awesome watch my friend. I have the same one.. noob dial and bracelet, MBW case.. gen crown. Very nice watch
  6. love the SSD!! out of all my Rollies and MBW frankens.. my SSD gets the most wrist time awesome watch dizz
  7. wow those stock threads are brutal!! new cut ones are nice and clean. good work
  8. [censored] thieves!!! I woulda flipped out and said it was a $700 seiko and tell them to open a claim on it for internal postal theft. Or take some pics of the box and write some letters to the big wigs at USPS or whatever.. If they wanna lie and steal then YOU lie and get them to look into it. You'll never get anything back but maybe it will open some eyes. Im sure this happens ALL the time It sucks when you cant even trust the post office anymore.
  9. The "coolness factor" quickly wears off with the iphone.. its super cool but i went back to my blackberry and the iphone sits in the desk drawer now.
  10. Yeah the swordfish came out a while ago. I think it looks cool but how do you tell the time at a glance when most of the dial is covered by those dual cyclops things? not very practical and i dont think its selling as well as they planned. If you want a Graham, the chronofighter is a better option.
  11. i want to order one of these right now.. and before i saw this post, i was gunna order the ss version.. now i think i want the PVD.. dammit
  12. which sub is it and where did you get it from? Some come off easy, and some like the noobmariner are HARD to get off and usually get bent in the process. dizz
  13. interesting.. i guess i read the orginal post wrong.. ive also noticed that some of my reps always stop with the second hand in the same spot. But Ive never noticed that any of my a7750s stop at 57sec but i will keep an eye out just for fun. I just gave a couple of mine a shake so we'll see that happens in a couple hours. @The Zigmeisterzuuuumba - When you have a minute, can you send me a quick PM? I lost your email addy and all my info in my laptop that blew up a few months ago. I;m using a diff email addy now too.. DoubleRedRolex@gmail.com. cheers dizz
  14. i have to agree with freddy.. 99% of watch guys wouldnt spot a new super rep if it jumped up and bit them in the ball sack. Its mostly the rep nerds like us that know all the ins and outs of the watches. I would be willing to bet that the senior guys here know MORE about gen watches than the senior guys on gen forums like Timezone. We seem to know EVERYTHING and every flaw and detail between rep and gen watches... no gen forum guys can touch our skills when it comes to small details. Anyways.. I still dont understand why ROlex doesnt AR thier crystals.. just doesnt make sense to me. When i get my new GMT i'm going to send the whole crystal for double AR.. why not? I bet after doing double AR to mine.. i could put it next to some dude with a gen and CONVINCE him that his is fake because of the glare on the crystal LOL or at least convince them that his crystal is aftermarket haha. I wouldnt ever do that but i thiink AR on a rolex would put it to the next level. Im gunna do mine and post before and after pics and you guys can be the judge dizz
  15. time to go for service.. shes prob dry or gummed up
  16. cool project!!! Im working on the same sorta thing.. noob case with lug holes, 91350 bracelet, and an old NDtrading 1680 white dial I didnt even know the diff between a 16800 and a 168000 until i read your writeup here! Good info! dizz
  17. sorta like what i did here to my noobmariner. i love lugholes!
  18. yeah i dont know what rolex is doing.. i dont mind the new deepsea but i have yet to see one in reaal life. The new GMT is not bad and i like the bigger day dates. BUT i dont like the new crown guards at all. I guess im on the fence on this one but i can see what your saying. Rolex to me has always been a tool watch and the new sports models are sure getting away from that look. i cant wait to see how badly they mess up the new daytona... yikes.
  19. ive bought reps for $800+ and also bought reps for $100. These days the watches seem to be going up in price. The avg now would about about $300 i would say. dizz
  20. great comparison. There are a few differences but they are minor. I think the MBW bracelet is a great alternative to the gen dizz
  21. i miss my old snowflake tudor sub had 93150 bracelet, triplock crown... it was a VERY nice watch.
  22. yes Tudor, which used ETA movements, is a sub-brand of Rolex. The older Tudor watches used to use Rolex crowns and bracelets and clasps with Rolex logos on them. Those are the ones most desired by collectors.
  23. i think if you had a new pp account and were making bank transfers all of a suddden it might raise a red flag. for example i am business verified and have had my account for many many many years. I dont think they are going to care if i move $1000 around.. $10,000 maybe.
