I have the previous eddie .v2; hope it doesn't suffer from this as well - one of my favorite watches

Thanks pugwash I wondered where they were talking about.

I believe he means upgrade, not downgrade.

Were you using a tripod during the lume shot? Just trying to figure out why the lines are so shaky.

sweet!

The 7750s I am looking at have a day wheel but not a date wheel... am I missing something?

Sweet. I was thinking the swiss one didn't have both of the wheels on it w/o modification and would not work.

Could the swiss movement even be dropped in because of the day wheel? Want this watch but that aspect holds me back... if the asian movement goes I want to be able to drop a better one in.

Always downshift to my timex for the workouts... I sweat way too much and bang it up plenty.

"GLNIVA" - is that a sexually transmitted disease? haha Nice watch though, good bargain.

Good call; I prefer to use The Zigmeister for all the work I have done and can't wait for him to return. Hopefully I can have him drop a slower-beat movement in it while he has it taken apart. (collecting pile-o-parts right now).

Mostly black tie events. I have a friend w/ a gen patek and that is when it comes out. Heirloom piece so the rest of the time it is under lock and key.

probably a smudge that is easily removed.

Love that avatar! Thanks for the info. I may try to get some solid endlinks anyways since the hollow ones bug me. The bezel has already loosened from me twirling it! I will try that anyways though. Need sleep but I will try the bracelet work you suggested when I return monday. Thanks everyone for the positive comments! Can't wait to put the work into this one to make it perfect. You don't understand the big deal about the dome until you have it on your wrist!

Sigh... I was going to go to bed but the masses have spoken! Action Shot. Yes I know my photo skills are lacking. id. Baby got dome! Can't wait to get the gen tropic I have on her!

Will definitely take some when I return from travel this weekend. Forgot to mention it was sent registered! Guess luckyyy has started that as a possibly policy (another order ~4-5 months ago was not sent registered).

Finally received this watch. Wanted to post since people are always wondering about Luckyyy. This is the second watch I have received from luckyyy. Shipping time was 3 weeks on one and 4 weeks on the other. Truly a beautiful watch. Unfortunate the end links are hollow, I am assuming they are solid on the genuine? Also the click bezel is a definite improvement in the modern versions, I find the bi-directional one somewhat strange (tight in some parts of circle and loose in others) but somewhat endearing and a piece of history. It is relatively difficult to make a full 360 degree rotation as it gets very tight at some points. I am hoping it will get better with wear. The dome is beautiful Nice, sharp face. Already have a OEM tropic to install; working on the bezel and pearl. Am trying to get a rivited bracelet now; as I believe they were issued with this watch and are very beautiful - hopefully it will come with solid endlinks. Perhaps will have to get a genuine movement for it? Who knows!

If you have to ask.... haha. Not really that bad, email luckyyy and ask.

would be good only on the 1st gen modern subs w/ the lug holes since it lacks laser etched crown.

I think it is just a funny angle; if you look at other pics it is OFFICINE

If they don't have a small enough one get a 0.99 eyeglass repair kit from walmart, etc.

you should be able to just unscrew it with a screwdriver (tiny).

I think for many purchasers the styling/look of the mac is probably more important than what it does (e.g. my girlfriend).

What exactly does "messing around with the date wheel" entail? Please elaborate
