    Top Gear

    I'm a fan of top gear. wish i could get it here in SPAIN! i always have to resort to online episodes
  4. Swimming with the fishes today fellas(in a thick new york accent):
  5. sweetness.. You can't go wrong there
  6. That's pretty awesome... are you a conductor?
  7. do you keep that thing loos in your pocket like that!??? no chain, no dial cover??
  8. no sapphire.....
  9. When did that happen? They've got three or 4 watches with the word "avenger" in their name... The Avenger seawolf.. avenger skyland... and the super avenger....... Never knew they took the "skyland" off....
  10. Welcome to the forum Chitown! You've definitely come to the right place! In regards to your question: The simple answer: BUY ONE The other answer: study study study here.. then bite the bullet and choose a dealer
  11. I think i'll take you up on your offer....
  12. I throw mine in rolled up socks
  13. yeah.. i've noticed it being slow today and yeserday... at least there's no flood control on searches anymore!
  14. hahaha... nice
  15. Not sure what GEN bezel you've seen fitted to a UPO but i've always thought that it was an impossible mod as the rep case and bezel are different than gen. The insert although not available new by itself.. can ocassionally be obtained here on the forum as well as Ebay from time to time. Like I said.. I would say that the VAST majority of most franken UPO projects are the basic.. tube, crown and crystal mod. Makes the watch look twice as good and is fairly easy on the bank.
  16. bump... anyone know where these can be sourced?!????
  17. Awesome box!! I second that "SA" opinion.. SA should only be for the Avenger.. otherwise it's toooo confusing!
  18. You forgot to add 650usd for a gen bracelet! You're right.. about the cost..minus the Bezel.. (since it's not possible on a UPO). I think the most common mod is to go with the crown, tube, chief crystal and bezel insert. The dial already looks 110% better just from getting the AR... You can make a GREAT looking franken... for $150-$200usd. obviously adding the gen dial would add to the cost.. but i don't think it's as necessary as the crown, tube and AR.... Just my .02
  19. Most dealers have this watch. I bought mine from Angus @ Puretime. Mine even came with an Anti-magnetic cover over the movement.. i've heard lots of people's don't even come with this! Thing to watch out for is the Crown and Tube. Mine is already starting to strip... So the gen crown and tube is a VERY necesary mod I'll be installing new crystal, gen bezel insert and gen bracelet on this over the course of the next year pics: Anti-magnetic cover installed over Swiss ETA movement:
  20. It's still beyond me.. why I still don't have an AP......
  21. pretty awesome project. Came out pretty amazingly!
  22. That would be because Teejay is the mannnnnnn
