Honestly, is this a joke thread or for real?

do any of the TD carry that pam 604? What is it under?

the pearl insert from my omega seamaster professional bond edition has gone missing. where can I get a replacement pearl? Do I just glue it in? With superglue or what? Is it easier just to get a new bezel insert?

So I finally got the band I wanted for my cola! Plus I resealed it and had it pressure tested and it passed!!

It seems to me that part of the issue was also beginning of the year, they probably felt there were still Xmas stuff coming through so they might have been more zealous than normal?

Slightly better picture!!

I did, I broke down and gave it to her, but I now have to order one for myself!!

My Bulova Quartz Sweeper!!

My wife loves my vintage Omega seamaster bumper and my vintage hamilton. However she is hard on watches so I really did not want her wearing a vintage watch and possibly killing it, so I figured I would be a nice guy and order her a rep that she could wear everyday and not worry about. Anyway, it arrived today and there is a major problem. I love the thing, it is much larger than my vintage ones and is really nice looking, so now I will have to bite the bullet and order one for myself!!!

My sailing watch!

I think being a dentist helps, I am used to working on small precise things, and using loups!!! the problem is I bought a dial to put in this watch, but I have grown to like the cola dial so now I am not going to replace it anymore!!!

I just used straight bleach, for 45 minutes, washed it off wiped with cloth then soaked for awhile in water to kill the leftover bleach, dried and reinstalled

that helps thanks!!

This is probably a dumb question, but here goes anyway. Lug pins, first off how do I know what size to buy? If I have a 20mm space, what size do I order? 21mm or 22? I also notice some different endings? Is there a brand that is stronger than the others? Please educate me a bit

Funny, when I try to go to the new website, my antimalware program is blocking it as dangerous...

Before the fade the insert looked way too brand new, while the rest of the watch looks a bit aged, so aging the insert made sense.

So I bought a inexpensive cola Rolex with the idea of playing around with it and not really caring if anything goes wrong. Anyway I did not like the look of the bright red bezel insert and dial, so I started by replacing the insert with a black one but I found the new insert to be too black, too shiny and new for the watch so I tried my hand at aging the bezel insert. starting point: New Insert: After aging:

So I am looking for ideas on how to fade the dark black on a sub bezel insert.
