That`s too bad that Andrew`s 1655 has faux lug holes on the outside - very strange. If I ever come across a better looking version I`ll be sure and post it.
Have any of you ever purchased the MBW vintage Explorer 1 or MBW James bond watch?
Thanks for your reply. How do I "give the dial a matte finish coating and aging"? Is there a good way to do this?
Good to know Andrew`s accepts a gen crystal.
Is Andrew`s case about the same thickness as a gen 1655?
Just to clarify, Andrew`s 1655 doesn`t have lug holes drilled through?
Also to let people know, dealing with Paso has been great!
Thanks!!!

Please view the larger pics I`ve attached.
Paso has it for sale. He doesn`t claim for it to be perfect by any means, but it is an MBW model. He doesn`t know if it accepts a genuine crystal, or any genuine parts
Is this case too thick?
Who sells one with a slimmer case and lugholes through the lugs???

I`m thinking of buying a vintage MBW EXPLORER II ORANGE HAND.
I wanted to know if it accepts original crystal and other parts.
Does anyone think it`s better than the owns by trustytime or silixprime.
Thanks!
Murray
