...Found the above photo of your collection and loved your watch selections !

 

I do not recognize a few of the models....

Hi, thanks museguy, the first one is a Helm Vanuatu on a Sinn rubber.

In the second row that's a Tissot PRC200 quartz, the next one is a Kemmner Bundeswehr Chrono (Heuer 1550 hommage) and a Sinn 903.

In the bottom row is a Tudor Bucherer Bronzo on it's head and a Breitling Navitimer 8.

I had two Bulova Surveyors, they kept more like 10-20 sec per year. And had a beautiful sweep, like super hi-beat

Seiko VH31, 4 beats per second, about 15 bucks

Tudor says Oyster Prince :/

Low res picture, but dial is Oyster Prince

The crystal is distorting the Rehaut. It would be worth changing it. I used an GS PA 462-66 from Ofrei. If you go to post #24 in this thread, there’s a link to a side-by-side comparison of a Clark & CWP T19 crystal too. You’ll see what a difference the crystal can make to the look of the Rehaut.

I was obviously completely wrong with the rehaut:/

I don't think advertising backdoor sales is such a good idea 😕
Especially since I couldn't even find a single sale from you that wasn't put on hold or nuked?!

I'll be putting the ZF on a crafterblue rubber  - saves the strap changing stress

That's ok for me, I prefer straps anyway

What was the tell? The date?
I ordered a set of HR hands, because of the minute hand. Let's hope the lume looks the same

Now I that I saw the pics on the big screen I'm confused, the left one has the slimmer lume and the date is better centered on the right.

But the handstack on the right looks ICHS, and the minute hand is a little short 

Minute hand with too thin lume like mine, that's why I'm guessing the right is a ZF

The right one is a ZF? Sorry, too low res for me to tell for sure :/

5-Liner still in the watch spa, getting a wellness treatment

Me2 =)

The blue one is still hidden from my wife in the basement, so nice pics will have to wait a little more. But in the meantime, the latest member of my little Pelagos family, the beautiful and discontinued 2-Liner

I bought it M2M on RWI. Ssteels reputation is not the best over there, I have Domi around the corner, but he's booked out til the end of days apparently

A nice 9401 is on it's way to me

I'm looking for a modder in Europe to finalize the build, could you recommend somebody?

The 2783 movement needs a service and maybe some work on the case, lugs, cgs.

I could live with the crown, some light modding could solve this but the hands and lume too?

I'll grudgingly wait for the next batch 

What I saw was rather underwhelming, different lume on dial and hands, hour and minute hands don't look the same, crown sticking out too far and again the too dark red triangle on 12.

Looks like reused BB 41 hands 😕

Will do so once it's finally in my grubby hands. The blue one is shipping up and down through Germany since the 18th of Dec.

DHL at it's best 

Servus,

nice to meet another fellow RWI-ler here. 

Thank you so much guys, a nice snowflake build is very high on my 2019 list and your experience here is a great help 

Hey... welcome to the bestest forum

 

Fellow Tudor fan here... just getting a tatste for Pelagos having tried on a gen LHD recently. Would love to see some posts on your awesome collection... which factories are producing best case, dials etc on Pelagos models in particular.

 

See you around

sadly my black XF Pelagos V3 is at the watchmaker for a service and to stiffen the bezel. 

The blue one is a ZF (according to RWI's [CONSENSUAL LIST] of Super Reps NWBIGs) the inferior one, the Tudor Pelagos V6F/XF V2/3/4 are considered so well made, it's not worth buying the gen. But a blue XF Pelagos V3 with perfect markers is already in the mail 

So right now my only real keeper is the LHD, not really a super rep, but sold out and not that easy to get.

I promise to spread some sweet Tudor love soon

If you come across a Pelagos 2-Liner/ 1. edition, with the old ETA dial, don't hesitate to tell me. That the one I'm desperately looking for
