  1. I have been looking to source a riveted Oyster Band 7205/Endlinks 57 preferably GEN. Any other riveted bracelet options I should be looking for? Any assistance is appreciated.
  2. I just ordered a DW 6239 Albino and wanted to know what the forum thought were the best modifications to the watch for the price. 1. Crystal 2. Crown 3. Gen Bracelet (Rivet or Folded) 4. Pushers
  3. Gentlemen, Any one have an alternative source from the Bay for vintage Rolex straps? Thanks!
  4. What "number" endlinks does the DW Cosmograph take?
  5. Inspired by Freddy's magnificent Golden Girl, I recently purchased the Gold Cosmograph Daytona from DW. (Eagerly awaiting its arrival). I also sourced a 15/16mm 14k Rolex buckle. Looking for strap advise from the esteemed members of the forum? I am leaning toward black croc. Any recommendations as to whom can source? Thanks. An inspiration shot.
  6. That would be fantastic! One here at least.
  7. Gentlemen - I am new to the world of Panerai and while price is no object (as long as we are 1/4 of gen), I am having some difficulty choosing the first piece to get me into this brand. I have read numerous reviews and the like but want some directed expert opinion - I was looking at the New Davidsen 111E or 111H. Any advise would be helpful. Thanks.
  8. Freddy - Any updates on the Golden Girl?
  9. Ubi- A great project I am about to endeavour upon myself. Does anyone know if a gen dial will fit a cartel (or anyone elses) ladies dj case?
  10. So what is the story with these new "Gens"? What parts are supposedly Gen? Which ones Rep? I cannot possibly be the only one who doesnt quite understand what our Chinese friends are doing.
  11. I have the new Day-Date II with this new movement with the same +/-2 sec day with no complaints (so far). As with all movements only time will tell.
  12. Light starch, had one too many Sea Island cotton shirts wear out too soon with heavier starch. I also must agree that French cuffs are a must.
  13. The postman has just delivered this same beautiful watch to me. Out of morbid curiousity, I opted for the new clone movement (which does seem a bit jumpy). The only downside is that the Cyclops is not centered with the date wheel. Urgh! Otherwise a breathtaking timepiece. I won't have you all suffer through my photography after such beautiful photos by Lanikai. Does anyone know who has serviced this "new" movement? I am planning to send mine off. Please advise. Cheers!
  14. I am trying to locate someone who can source a few MBK watches besides Eurotimez. Please advise. Thanks!
  15. Another beautiful group of photos from Lanikai inspiring me to buy yet another Rolex. I ordered the so called "upgraded" with the 316 steel and Rolex clone movement. Any word on these movements?
  16. Thanks for the photo of your inspiration piece. Is the case true gold or a gold colored alloy as it looks to be a good match with the band. I look forward to future updates of this project.
  17. Stunning project. Very intrigued to see completed. Do you have a photo of your inspiration?
  18. After an exhaustive search I seek the esteemed members assistance in locating a Source/Collector for a MBK Patek Twenty-4. Any help would be appreciated.
  19. Another amazing piece from Vac. I am a long time admirer. Where do I start on one of these projects, after robbing the bank? Thanks for sharing.
  20. Thanks for the Advice! Contacted the dealer who without hesitation told me to send it back for repair. Sending out tomorrow. Ah, now to wait for its return!
  21. Recently received a V3 DSSD (Swiss ETA) which is currently experiencing multiple problems: 1) Power Reserve of about 3 hours 2) Losing approximately 20 min/day What are the likely causes of this? Should I just send it back and hope for better luck? Any advice is appreciated! Thanks!
  22. I just received mine from Josh and it is beautiful...the bezel fonts on mine are clearly thinner than those pictured of the V3 above, I must have gotten a V2. Bummer. Otherwise the piece is as stunning as my brother in law's GEN. I will be in contact to see if somehow the problem can be remedied. Does anyone sell the appropriate bezel insert yet?
