Anytime, B!

I have had mine back from Ziggy a couple of months now. He re-lume the hands and the indexes @ 12, 3, 6 and 9. The dots around the triangular 12 marker were not done. I am almost certain that this is true to the genuine article.

I am not in any hurry. Have a crystal out for double AR so I plan on doing everything at once. Thanks sssurfer!

Currently I do not have a picture but I can take one tomorrow and post it. Thanks

Wouldn't have expected liking this strap on the 3717 but it looks fantastic. Who is it from?

Victoria, No strap or goggle needed to make you stand out in a crowd. Have fun on holiday. BB

This is no bull; Taurus here.

I have the original movement that came with the watch. What I was looking for was something unique. Should I back track and install the original movement or leave it the way it is?

I purchased the movement below from t and had if installed by Ziggy in my 112 turned 219. Even though this movement is beautiful and functioning well it is not correct for the model. Is there any way to attach a swan neck regulator or the appropriate bridges from another movement? Is this a good idea to begin with? Am I out of my mind? Should I be happy with what I have? I would appreciate any and all advice or feedback. Vlydog

As for the movement, what is likely to appear in this model?

Salutations Euro Timez. May your business here be fruitful.

@ziggy It this compatibility issue works out, I would be interested in one of your dust collectors; if they are for sale. Thanks

@avitt my 2846 movement is new. In fact the sellers description on the bay was..."new and in the box." I am certain that it is not serviced.

@ ziggy Are the ETA 2789's a suitable alternative to the 2846? If so, I would be interested.

Thanks tmg. The reason I ask is that the 2846 I bought has much rotor noise. I not sure a little grease will be the solution.

I plan on swapping out the MBW movement in my 1665 for a slow beat movement. I purchased a new ETA 2846 but it has a noisy rotor. Are there any other movements that would be at home in this vintage sub? Thanks.

Is grease the only solution?

Winning bid was $15,100.00 It was picked up by another well known fleabay seller moelarrycu. I have purchased genuine rolex parts from him in the past.

This is the best news I have heard in a long while. We are with you in both spirit and in thought. Seize the day!

Purchased a 21j Eta 2846 for instillation into my MBW great white. It is beset with rotor noise. Are there any ways this could be silenced? Thank you.

Greetings Forum Members, I need you help. Can anyone comfirm the part number for spring bars needed to fit my MBW Great White? Found this on the bay. ROLEX PART 23-9291 GENUINE SPRINGBARS 20mm x 2mm stainless steel "springbars" PIVOT LENGTH 2.8mm x 1.2mm. Thank you

Ziggy, Great work as usual. This is one of my favorite dials to date. Is the varnish you speak of similar to those used to give a dial an antique look? I seem to remember a tread about such a technique. vlydog

Beautifully done! The vintage lume is perfect on this dial. Thanks for sharing.

Is this the standard movement in a 1665 Great White?

No wrist shots of my own this morning but what a fantastic start to the weekend; first class contributions all.
