Yes it does..I REALLY wanted a polished center link Oyster...J had 2 but the didnt fit the case...bummer but I like that President bracelet for sure.....yeah I wouldn' tinker with the case or movement,,,,,I killed my first Explorer II $60 rep the day I got it....pretty disappointing....just bought another one though..a better one from Josh
Howdy fella's
This a cool deal. I have/had a 80's replica of a 16013 TT Datejust. I bought it 1989. It was dead so thanks to J (you know who your are man) we decided to swap the..
ETA2849 17j movement
To a new rep case with a SS/WG bezel, silver dial and hands and a Oyster Bracelet. The movement has issues with a winding gear thats missing 6 teeth and it is way off on it +/-....gains time but it looks cool and a movent swap is prolly in order. Here are the before and after pics...

Thanks "J" you're the man.
Thanks man,
This watch is VERY special to me, my grandpa was given this watch by a "Rosie The Riviter" crew at Convair (General Dynamics) for Christmas 1942. I have the complete box set, all docs of service it's WHOLE life...it's 14ct Gold and in emaculant condition. I wear it with lots of pride mates.

Interesting....I am having a Datejust resurected from and old 80's Datejust rep I had laying around that has the ETA2846 17j in it....It has some damage and may not work but it WAS a cool watch amd movement once upon a time.

Hey noob....you first need...the easiest way I think, a pic host like Photobucket...upload pics there from your computer where you may want to enhance, crop said pics on computer. Then upload pics to you"re host and when the pics are there, there should be options for posting the pic file..like for instance on Photobucket it looks like this XXXXXXXXX the is the key to look for for the pics to embed....does that make sense....Some...not sure about RWG but RWI now allow's for straight away upload from the computer and auto embeds the pics in the post window.
Hope this helps,
Rob
