  1. Haha I think I have one of those on my modded seiko
  2. This looks so good that I just want to lay down and cry in the shower [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
  3. Looks great! Dumb question - is the case engraved?
  4. High on Fire! Was on their concert last week.
  5. Athaya sells really good crowns and tubes. Dont know if he has any without the logo though.
  6. Hi fellow watch druggies. I would like to share with you my project - The Tudor 7032 Monte Carlo. Ive been gathering the parts for some time but now I feel that I would like to focus om making this watch to a reality. Im still missing a lot of parts but scavenging the interwebs for parts is part of this hobby right? These are the parts Ive got: 1. DW Tudor 7032 Sterile Case 2. DW Tudor 7032 Dial 3. Gen NOS Rolex T-128 crystal 4. Classic Watch Parts (Michael Young) centre seconds/chrono hand. This was bought in a group buy on RWG a couple of years ago and has also been repainted by the janeto for a closer match to gen. One of a kind (5 total I believe?). 5. Yuki hour and minute hands. 6. 1 Subdial Hand, also purchased through a group buy. Unfortunately Ive managed to get just one hand, will try to get a second one, otherwise I will have to use Yukis. 7. 702 Crown. Im not sure but I think its Athayas crown. Sourcing a gen 700 would be nice. 8. Gen tudor Clasp. The parts that Im missing: 7734 Movement Datewheel. It feels that getting the correct datewheel is impossible. Ive been in contact with a member who said that he could etch a datewheel but I have not heard anything more about this. Second correct subdial hand. Bracelet. Not sure what bracelet is the correct one. Endlinks The Mods that I would like to do are: Send the Dial and hands to Big dazza for relume and aging. Engrave the case between the lugs. Make the caseback engraving deeper. Try to engrave the movenent bridge. Not sure if anyone has tried it. Send the watch for case aging and assembly to a modder due to my bad temper when assembling small parts together. Here are some images of the parts:
  7. Yes it would. As I understand it his mystery movement was a st-19.
  8. Hi! Does anyone know where I can find a retainer ring for a 6542?
  9. Good point! Completely agree with you.
  10. Expensive! Why not pay a grand extra and buy a gen?
  11. Nice! Whats the total cost of the build?
  12. Thx! Do you think the double AR mod is also nessesary?
  13. Btw does anyone know if its possible to machine down the thick case?
  14. I think im going to go for one. Btw do we have a QC pic thread on the forum?
