i bought one of these when they 1st came out, but the watch was too small it was using the datejust case. I'm glad they fixed it. I would love to own one of these again with the normal crystal. maybe one day

Ray Thanks I will do that!

to get rid of the huge laser etched crown that screams rep lol. my mbw's crown is waaaaay smaller. i wonder if the crystal will swap over. (doubt it)

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=250318400846 "Clark" Sapphire crystal for Rolex 25- 295-C althou i did see Rolex 25- 295-C 295C2 is this the same crystal and does it come with the correct gasket?

try changing the date and see if they are all low.... some date wheels have only specific days that are low.

ok that makes me feel better about prying out the bent spring bars....i'm so afraid that ill take them out and not be able to put a bracelet back on. lol

what is the correct term for the wider hands?

dude, thats HOT!

i just realized that the hands i have on the current YM wont work they are asian hands..... and the hands from my ETA are not MAXI anyone got a set of hands that will work on my eta? or where i can find a set? thanks in advance!

Chefcook = did the the noob braclet fit without having to mod it? did the spring bars fit without having to drill out the end links

the clasp of the noob IS very good. but the wm9 one is slightly better.

the noob bracelet is accurate with the hollow mid links, the wm9 is solid mid links so its heavier then the gen. The wm9 clasp is better then the noob so i'm mixing and matching parts to make the perfect bracelet :-)

thanks for the reply. i guess ill try to remove the bent bars i hope its not too much trouble :-)

so i got my new sub today and its very good looking. needs the typical pearl, and cg's worked and it should be pretty much good for most people. i was going to install my noob bracelet but i cant even get the original bracelet off. The spring bars are bent! =( i'm scared that if i actually get them out i wont be able to put the bracelet back on because it needs to be bent. any suggestions on how to do this? (i also dont know how close the endlink will be on the noob and if it will fit better/worse then the original bracelet. help :-)

I have gone thru 4 YM's over the last year or so and 3/4 stopped working after a month or so including my current watch. I think I'm not meant to have a YM. All my other reps *knock on wood* have been good to me. I'm going to swap in a spare eta I have sooner or later but that's gonna be a project in itself

My submariner will have about 1000.00 when my WM9 case gets here..... and I only have a genuine crown on it =( but its super lumed, and The Zigmeister serviced. i guess i can sell my old mbw case here too to cut some of that down hehe welcome to rwg, let the wallet emptying begin

i use a green scrubby pad that people use to wash dishes normally. just make sure to use the pad in the same exact direction and only in one way....

i love that they finally fixed the case size..... now for a better dial.....

pics details?

i had 3 orders thru Paul and no problems..... he even sent me a date wheel for one of the watches that had a bad one..... Other people havent been so lucky with him My recently purchases have been from the "blackberry" dealers who reply right away (josh, andrew, and soon to be PT)

what is the best way to split the end link with out damaging it? i didnt even realize they came apart.....(i thought the end link was solid)

thanks ubi for the reply! I love all of your frankens! I dont have the parts you used to do the custom bracelet hehe

chef have you done the swap personally? i'm >< this close to pulling the trigger now!

I have an older MBW with noob guts that The Zigmeister worked on, its already got a gen crown and i have a spare noob bracelet i'm thinking about buying a wm9 and just basicly swapping the movement/dial/crown over to the new wm9 case. anyone know if the bracelet and crown fit without mods? thanks in advance!

I did it. Ordered from Josh. I hope she loves it
