  1. Yuki takes a lot of gen parts. Besides... movements with no spare parts become spare parts
  2. I recently had a Big Date on the work bench and the gear ratio is very tricky. The date should run from 01 to 31 and start again from 01. Someone probably already worked on your watch and didn't know what he was doing or it happened in China.... To adjust it you need to strip it down and adjust the interconnection of the gears and date wheels.
  3. Just really curious what this member is able to make....
  4. Looking good but the cut outs are missing the point... You want your upper body comming closer to the bench while you arms have a resting point. Therefore al the watch makers benches I have seen have an opposite cut out: inward curve. An example:
  5. I have a 4 meter solid oak bench with 2 work spots. It does not wrap if the room temperature and air moisture are stable.
  6. All you need to know here: http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/155014-movement-tear-down-angus-3135-v2-rolex-clone/?hl=+3135
  7. Cool.... Can't wait to see the result!
  8. WOW what a review. I feel honored! The pleasure was all mine Mike! PS: great strap combo. Classic!
  9. Is your Tag still nt running correctly?
  10. http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/60969-perfect-mont-blanc-starwalker-from-narikaa/?hl=%2Bmont+%2Bblanc#entry373431
  11. Probably a nylon pressure ring they also use on the front crystal (all crystals for that matter).
  12. I do like it! But I'm hoping for the regular ceramic SMP.... Thanks for posting the pics C!
  13. You are missing the point. Glad Nanuq explained it. It has nothing to do with fake-rep but with healthy-unhealthy.
  14. Worst thing you can ever buy.... Rep sun glasses. You are jeopardising your health mate. And for what? 70 euros? Do a search!
  15. Curious about the dial accuracy. Will be following this thread!
  16. The hand is not glued. It is the tube that is pressure fitted into the hand that is glued. The tube than needs to be pinched.... Oh man no one will ever understand what I just wrote
  17. Either a front loader or a gen like construction. The latter meaning that the screws need to be screwed in (not out) and than the movement ring needs to be turned until the screws fall into a gap making it possible to remove the movement.
  18. Just turn the crown anti clockwise until the date flips. Then you know it is 12 o'clock. Position hour and minute hand right in line with each other exactly at 12 (date switch point).
  19. A2836s is are new movements. The Swiss ETAs that come in our reps are mostly NOS or old salvished movements. Both need service in principle.... Buy a Swiss sealed ETA movement so you know it is fresh or buy an Asian clone and have it serviced would be my advice.
