yeah BK offers the new updated case, bezel with crystal and crown tube for $80. New SSD bracelet is apparently an additional $40 So all yoiu had to do was swap the movement, bezel insert and crown and you had a new updated SSD with thick bezel and better bracelet... but now it looks like there may some discrepencies here... dizz

good thing i havent ordered the case upgrade from BK yet.. i better hold off until this is sorted out

i cant wait to see how yours turns out!!!! This movement and dial from my noob will end up inside a MBW16610 soon so i was thinking the same thing about a 16800 or a newer nodate sub with a 93150 bracelet..... The possibilities are endless!!!

WOW a GMT big date! thats sweet

i post here... RWI and RG sometimes.. i browse around timezone once in a while but not often dizz

Heres my hardcore-noob. Its a work horse and shows the mileage. haha MODS Swiss ETA movement Drilled out lug holes and SEL's - gen 2mm spring bars Modded crown guards reshaped and polised caseback to look like 1680 Entire bracelet beatenm aged, vintagized and oiled Entire case beaten, aged and vintagized Aftermarket insert installed without pearl

These are different crowns and tubes. these new ones 24-703 are cheap.. the vintage 24-702 ones cost 10x more if you can even find them. Ive been looking for a 702 tube for years.. dizz

If its a rep then i would sure like to know where to get a couple for a reasonable price!

Heres my lugged up noob.. YES it was hard to drill the lugs AND the SELS. Looks pretty damn good though. Its an awesome mod! I can wait to see what you are going to do next!!!

has anyone heard from him? I would love to see more of his work!!!! You can just stop loving these watches.. its not possible! How can you quit and never come back? haha

I also have this crown... and cant find a tube anywhere for a reasonable price... sucks.

not a chance. Ive seen it, it looks cheesy lol

very nice!! A gen 1603 was my first gen ROlex ever!! Its the ONLY datejust that i life and would wear beautiful watch!! dizz

thats a super nice datejust!! Im on the west coast canada and we;ve had a GREAT long weekend so far! Weather has been fantastic.. supposed to rain on Tuesday though .. yuk thats a super nice datejust!! Im on the west coast canada and we;ve had a GREAT long weekend so far! Weather has been fantastic.. supposed to rain on Tuesday though .. yuk

well they were stuck.. now we have goofy looking new models.. i dont mind the deep sea though. You're worried about the Exp II and im worried about the next generation Daytona I cant wait to see what they do there.

i wish quartz was an option. You could choose Quartz A7750 or Swiss ETA7750 How about a quartz sec@6 daytona in the near perfect noobfactory case? WBK has quartz HBB lites for just over $200.. he says same case, dial and strap as the HBB lite and ultimate, just with quarts movement and no AR like the lite version. not bad... anyone know the weight difference between a A7750 and a quartz chrono?

Yep you can get these.. recently one of the trusted dealers on one of the forums here posted pics of his HBB with quartz chronograph. Apparently the same case and strap as the HBB lite, just with different movement.. no AR. I think about $250? This would be a super reliable daily wearer.

HAHAHA i just spit my fukken water all over my screen!! LOL Thats the funniest thing i have ever seen!

Wow i definatly wouldnt do that. This isnt like oiling the motor on a blender or something.. "a drop" of oil would gum up the entire movement, and probably ruin the dial as well...

Ya but it only fits the noobmariner as far as i know. If your not sure what fits what then its just best to buy a gen crown and tube and drill and tap your case. The noob tube hole is pretty centered top to bottom so you should have enough 'meat' to accept a larger hole. dizz

Thats funny.,. i just downloaded "fight club" yesterday and watched it for the first time in years.. great movie.. i like brad even more since hes been sponsored by Rolex.. Can u imagine? Not like he cant afford to buy them anyways haha. @Omega Fan - ive seen the pictures on your bedroom walls, dont lie Dont you remember we bought them together that one day at the mall? LOL im totally kidding. Im gunna watch Oceans 11 again right now! Cool movie! cheers dizz

HAHAHHA WTF? I clicked on the thread fully getting geared up to start ranting and swearing about little punks jacking your collection!! LOL I got myself all worked up for nothing! Pretty funny post though.. silly gnomes.

this isnt good. Yet another reason for everyone to watermark their pics.. Who the hell is this Brady guy anyways? dizz

i love these watches and im gunna buy one right now.. this thread convinced me! gunna be the crazy hours color dreams black dial... gotta find one with the right font... woo hoo! dizz

I'd be interested in these if they were ever to come up for sale. brevettato/2-brev-3.jpg vintagecortebert001-1.jpg
