  1. GEN 114 Dial GEN 114 Hands Thought I'd share some wristshots of my PAM 114F... On a brown strap... extremely close to gen ....Love the AR as it is very hard to detect.....one more pic...
  2. Congrats to the lucky 5 who took advantage of this offer for 24mm Pre-V straps! Thanks RWG.
  3. EXPIRED. Hey guys, I'm running a special 1-day sale on any of my Pre-V Edition straps right now.
  4. Tutima, WOW, that is great looking timepiece bro....the strap combo looks great on it. You have to love the 63's!
  5. Looks great my friend.....LOVE the 111. Can't wait to see the other PAM btw...you have some serious photography skills!
  6. 1 dw for a PAM 63 with a ETA 2836 Lello, where do I send the money and how much bro? Frog
  7. I'm very impressed with the mods to your Euromariner. How did the Clark crystal look compared to the OEM rolex from the side? Did have a similar height? FROG
  8. Tourby....I'm very impressed bro. You are doing a great job putting this together. Good Job! FROGMAN
  9. I live maybe an hour away from where wholesaleoutlet990 ships and it took almost 2 weeks for me to get my insert. They were very helpful when I sent an email...and the insert was nice. Good Luck, FROGMAN
  10. I misunderstood your comment then....for that I am sorry. I really hope you get everything worked out. I do wish you all the luck! TeeJay, I think we will have to agree to disagree then. You make some good points in your statement. However, I think you mistook the quote from the book. I agree with telling it like it is...and not sugar coating things. Yes, people might get their feelings hurt at first....but it could help down the line. What I don't agree with and what I think the watchmaker was saying is.....as an "artist" don't down another artist's work in front of another person. Especially, for financial gain. Honestly, in my profession if I see something wrong I would NEVER down another persons work. Okay I'm rambling now....but my point is....how you say and handle things can make all of the difference. Oh well....to each his own. Aside from the comment I posted from this book....it really is worth the read....especially if you are interested in watchmaking. Alright, I've got watches to buy and a lot of forum threads to catch up on....take care everyone!
  11. Lanikai, I wasn't "calling you out" by posting my comments. You have the right to post your opinion and to defend your position. That is the great thing about our forums....open talk about EVERYTHING. Also, I'm not asking you or anyone to take responsibility for the pictures....they are posted....what's done is done. I was hoping that my comment would be taken to heart and not turned into anything else other than that. The old watchmaker that wrote the book had a lot of knowledge and was willing to share it with whoever would listen.....I thought I'd pass that along. That is all, FROGMAN
  12. Hey guys, I don't post on this forum very much....but I'm really surprised at this thread. We all enjoy the same hobby which I might add isn't exactly legal....and yet we seem to be blasting our Modders and other forum members. I'm all about using the forum to make sure everybody stays honest.....but I think this thread is going overboard. I am reading this book called Practical Watch Repairing by Donald de Carle. Last night I flipped to the appendix and saw a section called "A Standard of Workmanship"......funny...because the last point the author makes applies to this thread....I wanted to share it with everyone: "Finally, do not run down another horologist's work, even if it leaves something to be desired. If the condition of a movement is in question, treat the matter diplomatically; describe what you can do to improve it, do not give an opinion that somebody else has done a poor job. Be prepared to stand by your own results; that is your reward." Pg 314 If you haven't had the opportunity to read this book, I would suggest it. That is my 2 cents... FROGMAN
  13. Very nice vbarrett! A great twist on a strap review......you left me wanting more...
  14. If you are talking about a gen...then I would suggest the Movado Fiero...VERY COOL WATCH.... You could go with the older Valor model...if you can still find them. Just my 2 cents
  15. I'm interested in the orange version...Since I first saw it in my watch magazine the orange face rep has haunted my dreams...I love the brown strap that the gen usually sports. Nice timepieces!
  16. I had a sub with the same issue...I worked on it for an hour trying to get the bracelet back on. I ended up having a smaller diameter spring bar lying around and the bracelet went right on. I hope that makes sense. Predfan....I'd love to see a picture of the crystal height....maybe a side view????
