Nice buckles! Really, now you could try to age them , rust, etc to offer more interesting visual effects

There are watch modders out there that do great "per gen" spec refinishing on both 316 and 904 SS

You'd have to first define Morality. Secular morality is a man made invention and is mostly based on utilitarianism , so what feels good and serves one well cannot be morally wrong as long as you don't significantly/permanently affect others rights there cannot be any true moral decay unless you believe in a God dictated moral rules (10 commandments etc) then yes there's moral law "breakage" but it's not a decay, it's always been this way since antique times.

It's a beautiful Watch ! Where did you find that strap ? It's cool mate


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

VS factory (written in the thread title as well). Strap is 24/22 regular lenght, carbon fibre look with leather lining (very similar to the genuine one), the deployment clasp is brushed SS. I can take some daylight photos tomorrow.

Yes thank you. So VS is not V6F or Kw?

That's a crazy good workmanship they did ! Who is this factory ? Have they put out any more Pam reps ?

Also care to show some more pics of the strap and the deployant clasp ? That's a beautiful strap pattern there ! Is it 24/22mm?

Thank you mate !

Sent you a message. I've got a friend with a brick and mortar shop. He's got a Rolex parts account. Does good work.

Hello,

CONUS based ?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No. There is an engine number like on a car, and only rolex archives can tell if it matches the case number. They are not related when made. They only get related after the papers are issued.

Thank you, finally I know how it's done


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Engravings are done by Neckyzips but you need to refinish the case first as surface is concave on those cases, like on most rolex reps... After the engravings the final brushing is done. Only that way will you have that result ! So it's a three step work.

Wow great work !! Thank you for the explanation !
I've always had the question , is the gen rolex caliber individually engraved with a serial number and if so is this number the same one engraved between the lugs ?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The chamfering of the sides looks great ! My TC chamfering was down by PBDad, who did yours ? Also who did the engraving ? It's very well made. I'm getting a gen crown and tube because stock TC sucks.

This is not RWI and you can post QC pics here but " (after much reading around , knowing which is the best version of a particular model, what to look for, etc)" to quote
jonathanw is best practice.

I meant RG

What are you talking about? 

You asked were is the place to post QC pics, I responded to you. It's not an allowed practice on rwi to post QCs just for others to "see if there's something wrong" you can only post after you bought the watch and/or for specific details (like a date wheel being displaced for example) not for general advice about what to buy .


Enviado desde mi iPhone utilizando Tapatalk

All,
since I am undecided and a noob regarding AP, may I post some QC pics here and ask for your help? If not, where are QC Pics normally posted?
 
Thanks, GP

No where, unless you already bought the watch or you have a specific concern regarding especific details of the QCs (after much reading around , knowing which is the best version of a particular model, what to look for, etc)
