  1. congrats! its going to look amazing! Can't wait for the finished product! When will it be done ?
  2. Sly, you and I have the EXACT same projects cooking. I too will have a 1680 and 5512 with gen dial and movements. Im looking for a good 5512 case as well.
  3. looks amazing! more pic more pics
  4. I met with a guy trying to sell these to me as gen. Bracelets didn't match with some of the watch. Looks put together with aftermarket cases. NO sure about the dials though. What do you think? CGs look off, or it is just me? He also had a 1675 with wacked ingraved serial numbers So I took these and texted my good buddy these pics and he said RUN dont walk.
  5. yeah I think that was when he got it as a birthday gift.
  6. I like the scene where he gets a YG version of the watch.
  7. wow that my friend looks AMAZING! Thank you for the special thanks i appreciate it! I really miss that project, but I'm glad you finished it, it looks again amazing! Im actually looking for a case like that again to start my project again =). So the new Yuki cases are problematic huh...too bad. He used to make nice cases.
  8. maybe I can make this watch a 9401/0 ? http://www.yukiwatch.com/catalog/item/6785693/6696653.htm since it doesnt have "oysterdate" wait never mind, thats a no date
  9. Wow thank you, guys..you guys are awesome. so heres a little update for you guys. I get gen crystals from my watchmaker, so I got a gen 125 put on today. And a trit pearl on it as soon as I saw someone mention it. In the picture the bars are not gen but it is now. So right now, its got a gen 125, now gen spring bars, gen 580 on a gen 93150 VC bracelet. Someone asked what ingravings are on this case. its says 9411 at 12 and "stainless steel" with serial 78xxxx(only six digits) at 6 side. So the movement is a ETA 2784 but not gen but with correct dressing?
  10. Hey guys, I picked up this from someone I know but I don't know a darn thing about it. Can someone tell me whats good(dial, movement, etc) and whats not. From what I can see, the dial seems to be decent. The CG are shaped nicely. It fits gen spring bars and doesnt look drilled. Wonder wnat kind of case it is. the movement looks like it has a Tudor rotor but not sure about the movement. Not sure about the caseback either. Wrong tropic, and rep bezel insert. here are some pics. I really appreciate it you can help. Thanks!
  11. Good looking watch! does the yuki dial have lume?
  12. Stilty, do we have the the calendar and GMT gears that The Zigmeister is talking about? I was told by my watch guy that you can use the same ring but need a washer to raise it a little.
  13. wow!!! just awesome stilty just awesome. I'm really glad you finished the watch. I was wondering how it was going...I actully logged on today after a few weeks to check here to see if you posted anything believe it not. I'm still looking for a movement for mine but nothing good yet. Wow, It juts looks so awesome. Hey, hows the case on this one? better than your first one?
  14. Thanks for the info...really appreciate it. So do all rep 580s have the notches in the back?
  15. I'm can't seem to find much info on rep 580 endlinks. Anyone got any? How good are they? Please post pics for me. thanks!
  16. wow this movement is on a MBW? any more pics? congrats on a awesome watch.
  17. Oh no, I was never questioning about the Tube...just my crown. I took a picture of the tube because I wanted to know if it was okay with my current crown. I love the tube, its perfect. Thanks!
  18. Thanks again for repling. Not sure if this helps but heres a shot of my casetube.
  19. Wow this is awesome information. Thank you!!! I think my case tube is gen 703 but Im not sure either. It does have a o rubber gasket around the tube and I also used to have clarks 703-0 tubes and this crown fit. This crown fits my gen tube and screws in no problem, so is this not gen? Heres are some pics of my project. The bracelet is a gen vintage 93150 on a gen 580 endlinks..fits perfectly but the lugs are about 1mm to wide. Atleast the gen spring bars are a perfect fit for the lug holes.
  20. Hey guys, Im almost done finishing up my franken 1680, So far I have gen dial gen bezel insert gen 127 top hat crystal gen tube gen crown? gen 93150 bracelet gen end links gen spring bars gen NOS tritium 1570 hands Yuki 1680 case/caseback...movement drops right in. I just need the 1570 movement to complete it. But im not sure if this is the right crown for a 1680, can someone help identify this crown please.
  21. Hey guys, Im restarting my 1680 project and wanted to know how do you age the case? And how do you guys age the bezel to make it blue...I've seen some crazy vintage pieces here and man you guys are amazing.
