  3. Just wanted to share the great work that@Ado213 did for me recently. Taking my very beat up TC and giving her a complete service, drilled lugs, installed open 6&9 Dwo and basically giving me my grail watch. Only thing left is to replace the dial one day but no rush. Loving this. Thanks again@ado213
  4. Who did your work..? I still haven’t done anything Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  9. Hey mods can you please delete my address?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Mate it’s so comfy I love it! I’m located in Sydney (Mascot) Australia. You?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Honestly though if anyone ever reads this thread I cannot recommend this combo strongly enough. Particularly since attaching the Tudor buckle it’s fantastic. Only issue is still not having the properly fitted endlinks. As anyone who owns one of these will understand, the holes for the springbar is very near the ends of the lugs. This means that whenever you use the leather strap or other options the blank and ugly walls of the watch are on display. My current set up decreases this problem but still if someone knows anyone who is capable of making a set of custom jubilee endlinks for this I’d be very grateful.

  12. Talking to myself here haha... but I’ve managed to attach the clasp from the Tudor bracelet to the seiko jubilee. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkSorry for quoting myself.. above^ Anyway so I found a somewhat satisfying result by just pinching the end links together. Still think a custom full size endlink will look better Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. So I’ve had a love hate relationship with my first ever gen purchase a Tudor Black Bay Red with Rose logo and tonight I may have solved (at least temporarily) my issue with the way the watch wears. I’ve been wearing my seiko diver that has a pretty comfy jubilee and I tried it on the and it fits ok well except for the endlinks of course.. Anyone know who would be best person to reach out to?? Thanks in advance Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. As the owner of a gen Tudor Black Bay Red (Rose log) I regret ever buying it especially since they bring out this beauty now!! The B.B. wears huge!! Doesn’t look big but because the case is soo thick it feels huge and I never wear it anymore since getting a TC V6 a year or so ago. The Tudor B.B. is beautiful but not for me at 41m. Might have to flip it soon.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. @ephry73 I will take your advice and let the TC case be what it is. I will have the lugs drilled and y serial numbers engraved and leave the rest as is.. [emoji1598] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Thanks for all the info guys! What if I was to just do the lug holes and date wheel to the open 6&9 it will be correct for an R-serial (1988) with “service dial And hands” ? I can live with this.. but the question remains: should I [censored] with something that is already great?? I’m torn as Im in no position currently to by expensive ST cases, dials, movements etc..

  18. Hey guys, I have a beautiful TC V6 which I love and wear everyday even over my gen Tudor BBR but my grail watch is a 1983 16800. I am considering having Ado or jmb drill the lugs and do the appropriate engravings between the lugs. I will also have a open 6&9 date disk added. I will leave the dial for now as I guess it could have been added as a service dial?? Any thought on whether I should do this or keep her as is? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Absolutely gorgeous! This watch is now back on my wish list!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Gorgeous piece! I think if I were ever to get a Daytona that would be the one! Is it Franken? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. 3 weeks in full sun faded the red on this dial pretty well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. That's beautiful mate! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. So I received the watch.. Was not the one in the video with CHS and thankfully not all that 'wokky' at least to me.. I am however a bit confused about the CGs and crown. When I'm wearing the watch I feel they are wrong so took some pics to post here and when I look at them they look fine. Can you give me your opinion? I feel I'm going a little mad.. Ps the watch came on a really really flimsy hollow link bracelet so swapped it for a jubilee I've had lying around for ages. The thing that's stressing me out about the CGs is that they are too long and the crown is too small??? Some pics: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Hey @marrickvilleboy is it true you are a watch smith and in Sydney? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
