  1. Hi, as aanival commented there's no painting in this mod. It consists in removing the white layer. I suggest anyone interested in this mod should contact fleed for details as I'm not sure he is doing it for others at the moment. Here a couple more pictures I had saved. Sorry I have no nice pictures of my safari yet. As soon as I have I will post. Enviado desde mi GT-I9000 usando Tapatalk
  2. I replaced the asian 2824 in my Sinn U1 with a ETA 2824 with no issues. If the original movement is an asian 21j it would be impossible or require difficult modifications Enviado desde mi GT-I9000 usando Tapatalk
  3. My safari dial (and others) have this mod. It was done by a lume expert in Spain. I think he posted it a while ago... (repgeek maybe?) Fleed did that job. Enviado desde mi GT-I9000 usando Tapatalk
  4. I just want to see one update soon: the final Safari dial!!!!! (cream, SS sorround in numbers...)
  5. Yes exactly!!! I reasiled this just after posting my question!! I was looking at the closing system of the clasp, and thought...if I bent one of the parts, it will make more tension, let's try... OHH MY GOD, MY CLASP WORKS!!! Anyway I will change the clasp, when I receive the one I bought, it is still very uncomfortable.
  6. Already turned it, well I did this even before winding, but it is not comforable at all. It happens the same as with my Portuguese. Maybe my wrist is too small... by the way, how can I remove the clasp from the strap in my AP ROO?? I removed the small screw, but nothing happens
  7. The clasp in my secs@12 safari was just sh.. It worked for one day, then I can't keep it closed anymore. Appart of this it's bloody uncomfortable. I have purchased a buterfly type deployant buckle in the bay for a few dolars. I hope it arrives soon.
  8. I think I love it... Don't you think the Rue STH is darker blue?? look at the buttons
  9. I'm waiting mine at the moment... More than the black-dark brown issue, the thing that worries me is the SS outline. It seems from some pictures I've seen there is not in the latest version. Still not sure if it is an effect of a bad picture, let's wait and see.
  10. Although it seems there is not SS outline in the hour numbers, I hope this is just an effect of the pictures, because the previous versions had it...why not now??
  11. somebody knows roughly how much is the gen BR nylon strap?? Thanks Edit: Angus sells rep straps in his webpage (nylon, leather and rubber for 30$)

    Very nice!! Can I ask who did you buy from?? Thanks for sharing!!!
  13. Have you checked Angus site?? http://www.puretimewatch.com/index.php?pro...cture_id=451202 It is not the tuiga, but probably he can get the lite version if you ask...
  14. Sh*t, I wanted to say this!!!
  15. ...and if you want, you will be wellcome in Spain too!!! Theres quite a big rep community here.
  16. As I said before I will wait until price goes down, or the flaw of the date is improved, but was just curious about something... Why pay 658$ to angus if Trusty has it on his shop for 568$+shipping??
  17. I've been waiting for this rep long time, but I think I will wait for the "ultimate" version with the date issue solved. If they got the secs@12,I just can't believe they will leave the date window as it is now
  18. Thanks very much for your feedback!!
  19. Hi The Zigmeister, After almost one year wearing it regularly, with incredible accuracy and good performance, my TAG Carrera started causing problems last monday. (A7750 28800bph) This is the description of the facts: 1) From the very beginning the crown has been quite hard to turn when widing. So I tried to keep it working continuosly as much as possible, and just with the "automatic winding". 2) It works well with the watch facing up, I need to check accuracy I hope to do it tonight, but I'm almost sure that no problem in this position. **EDIT**: I left the watch sitting in my table last night, and after around 16 hours is keeping great time. 3) If I turn the watch, looking at the movement, I can see how the wheel that is always oscilating (with the spring) starts to loose "power" and finally stops completely. If I shake the watch it starts again, if I turn the watch again to face up it continues running fine. Do you have an idea of what is happening?? I've never had this rep serviced Thanks in advance and sorry for my poor technical vocabulary...
  20. Hi Francisco, did you post this question in c or k?? I think I didn't see Anyway, I knew this from some time ago as I found it with two portugueses I got from Juan. My watchsmith told me it came out and in just with "force"...yes I was shocked too... The one I have has the four bolts. (Vamos que el bisel junto con el cristal salen y entran a presi
