Hi, I have the opportunity to buy a full Rolex 1500 gen box, I think I could use it to make a 5500 Explorer ...
I have read in several places that the problem of this compilation is how difficult it is to adjust the glass "plexi" to the case...
they think it's a good option?
thanks and best regards.
my dial is "only Swiss" from the transition period 1964/65 for this date the correct bracelet would be a Rivet or a Jubilee (if I'm not wrong)
to the glasses with light you can add lenses with more magnification.
thank you very much for your help
Your work is spectacular! I like all three oysters 😍
Who is Mary's? WSO I think it's an ebay store
thank you very much for your help.
thank you very much, the dial is from Helenarou (all the pieces are bought in 2014).
I bought a watchmaker's glasses with led light and graduation from +1 to +3.5.
the next assembly of a rejoj I will realize it more comfortably :)
hello, this is my first oyster project 😅
these are the pieces that I have compiled, they are adjusted in budget but I think it can look good...
first assembly without crown because the stem is very long and I have to cut it
I had trouble putting the needles (my eyes get worse with age ) Also leave without putting the screws that hold the movement to the box ...
any advice is welcome
Hello, I have a medium-term project in mind, I want to make an exhibition case (museum style) with the homage of the 8 most iconic watches of the Oyster brand.
What 8 "vintage" models would you put?
The 1016 and the datejust for now I think they are essential.
Of the models of submariners or sailors I do not know which one to choose.
I wait for your lists
This is my list
1 OYSTER PERPETUAL (I do not know which model to choose)
2 DATEJUST (the 16233 because I find it easier to mount it)
3 EXPLORER (1016 jobs in progress)
4 SUBMARINER (5514 COMEX)
5 GMT-MASTER (I do not know which model to choose)
6 MILGAUSS (I do not know which model to choose)
7 DAYTONA (now I have an alpha daytona)
8 SEA-DWELLER (1665 'Double Red')
What parts or complete watch to later change parts advise me for the 5514 and the DR 1665 (as I want to make 8 watches I do not want them to be very expensive)
Thank you for your help
