  1. Adobe Lightroom 3 with 300 Preset Real nice and simple to use. I prefer PS3 still, but for additional effects I use LR http://www.wrist-check.com/showthread.php?8000-Surprisingly-impressed-with-Lightroom Some other samples I did
  2. Thanks Pete Bases are what got me into PAMs and right now, I'm still happiest with them
  3. GTG! I wanna see Ain't a fan of chrono or 45mm Rads, but curious about all the hype of this one. looks great
  4. some additional pics as PB was acting up last night Thanks all. If some of you remember, I had a lovely 040B Ti which I just sold. Aint a fan of Ti's and I doubt I can do a good 176G mainly due to the lack of a good Ti historic CG. Jakobh accurate caseback too.
  5. My awesome foursome is pretty much done; Still some outstanding things on the 114 (movement issues) and the minute hand on the 009 just won't sit flush (need to sand down the post), but other than that, they are all done! 002A, 009B/WC, 114F, 232I 002A - relumed DSN dial + hands Getat case DSN CB unknown CG thick crown A6497 serviced 009B - DSN case+CG+crown old cartel sausage base dial relumed DSN hands Wrist-check custom caseback by Jakobh A6497 serviced 114F- Gen dial Getat hands relumed Cartel CG reshaped Cartel CG A6497 w/ engraved plates 232I - DSN dial + hands Cartel case+CB A6497
  6. Lume shot that I forgot to add. 2 sec exposure And yes the sec@6 is lumed
  7. Found a spare Maratac blue strap in the strap case so cut the notches down to fit more and slapped it on LOVE IT! I was slowly getting irked by the rubber strap and was even thinking of selling off cause of the strap, now I'm back in love. So fickle. Definitely getting K-strap to build me a custom one with Kevlar inserts if I don't get the OEM one. AD quoted it at a decent price USD$200 OH and I need to get a lume shot for you guys. The seconds dial, white portion...its LUMED!
  8. So do I. I missed out on picking one up 2 weeks ago and that's what started me on the hunt for a JLC MC. Joewatch has one and its a stunner
  9. My latest pickup, Jaeger LeCoultre Master Compressor Diver Chronograph and the reason for my flurry of sales So now the question is, I want to get another strap for this bad boy. I personally love the JLC leather strap on the Navy seals version; Before I go for the OEM, I wanted to check if anyone knew of any custom strap makers who could make something similar. There is a small piece of kevlar/composite material stitched into the leather. If not, which is a better choice, a Maratac Elite composite blue stitch; Or the Bradystraps sailcloth black I am still in love with this piece. Love the alternating finishes, the stunning dial colors, everything Great review on the watch on WUS too (linkie)
  10. It is a little too worn at some places, especially corners. But overall its great
  11. Petey, this is just for you WC Caseback on my 009. Still a long way to go for this piece, high CP, relume, stripping of AR. Looks soo much better than the stock.
  12. No website that I know of. He's on wrist-check and on risti I believe
  13. Go over to wrist-check to find out Full list of all 30 are on there
  14. Actually Pete, I reckon I've added significant value to it, at least for me with the new CB The stock one is crap, paper thin and wrong/bad engravings.
  15. Finally my 009 from M has arrived! Great deal, just Canada Post took forever and M was a real gentleman through it all. Its really quite an interesting piece. Was taken aback by the PVD when I first saw it. Ain't black black like what I've known PVD to be. A real gunmetal grey shade to it. Then changing the angle of the lightsource Compare the difference in color to the PVD buckle on the gringo Pre-V And next to its 002a brother This piece is going to get a relume by Goin, tall canon pin and of course, the WC caseback! More pics of Gringo's cognac Pre-V with sewn in flat PVD buckle. I love the buckle, sharp corners, very matte beautiful PVD. Strap is even better. I've fallen in love with Gringo's straps I'll get more shots of the strap soon
  16. That aint a 127 Its a gen RXW MM20 Just like marinamm20's subbiesrock: I agree...still it looks pretty Full list of pieces from 12 o'clock centre clockwise; Montblanc Sport Anonimo Professionale Mod.6003 LH 111I modded (Goin relume) Anonimo Dino Zei Nautilo Bronze Modded Seiko Monster (Yobokies milspec seamaster dial, plongeur hands, blaster case and bracelet, sapphire crystal) BK/WM9 v3 Submariner Modded PAM002A (Goin relume) Modded PAM232I (DSN dial) Vintage 6152/1 4 liner (Noctilume) Seiko Orange Monster DSN 040B (DSN stock lume) RXW MM20
  17. Yeah the lumed dials are always stunning. nearly picked up a Fortis B42 Marinemaster with a lumed blue dial that was stunning, missed it sadly.
  18. Did someone say lume? 1sec exposure Mixture of gens and reps, all superlumed 2sec exposure Have always loved lume. The one that I really want is a UN, those puppies burn
  19. Seems LH has changed his case from mine as I have no issues fitting thick straps to mine. I've also changed the crystal to (not accurate to gen) double AR Taka coating, relumed dial and hands, movement service, CG refinished. Technically for the I series we're also meant to have a polished caseback, but I've not gotten around to doing that yet.
  20. Project Log End result pretty pictures Next to my MM20 I think this is going to be my new avatar Happy PAMily
  21. Where are the pics mate? I saw that Bezel has it already and tried on the manual wind cream dial, love that combo! Decent price too, but not for me. Fell in love with the JLC Navy Seals diving alarm instead.
  22. Thanks all. Absolutely love it. Wish Anonimo made more bronze pieces, they truly are stunning. The Dino's never caught my eye, except for the San Marco, until this bronze Nautilo became available. I cancelled my bronze Polluce order from the AD to get this instead. Agree that the Professionale is one of the best pieces in Anonimo's lineup. Amazing quality.
  23. If you hadn't guessed it yet, I've been bitten bad by the Anonimo bug as of late. And what else says Anonimo more than a bronze case? So when I got contacted about this piece, I couldn't help but pounce on it, even though it was slightly above what I know it sold for and it was without box & papers and spare original strap. I am so glad that I did though. It's got so many lovely facets to it that I'm still in awe of it. The previous owner polished it a little before passing it to me. Bit of a mixed bag there, part of me wishes the original patina had stayed, yet the other part is glad it got polished so I could watch it age myself. Anyhow, enough talk, onto the pictures; Crystal doesn't have AR again I believe, but as its a flat piece of sapphire, reflections arn't that bad as compared to the Millemetri/Polluce/Professionales. 1 of 19 pieces for the bronze Perfect positioning Uses a bayonet crown, first time I've come across one of these. Took me a short while to get the hang of it. You can see the "L" lip that allows the bayonet to work. Next to its Professionale Mod.6003 cousin Here is the original Dino Zei Kodiak tan strap There is a thin flat piece of metal embedded in it. Love the buckle! Lumed of course. Love that the power reserve arrow is lumed too. Though the 12 isn't. 1sec exposure, 2mins lapse Finally a wristie on my 6.75" wrist It wears like an AP almost, but better to me. More Info Definitely one that is going to stay in my collection.
  24. This is a more budget build to be honest. There still is an Okabum CG winging its way to me now which will be included that's not pictured. Movement at this point will be an A6497 and if I really dig the piece, I'll swap in a swiss 6497 at some point. I do love the SF240s, Cortebert 618s and even a rebridged mollie, but with a solid caseback, I just don't really see the point and I don't want to put a display caseback on this. Anyhow, another discussion for us when I come for the GTG. For now, let's concentrate on your stunning 2533...oops 305
