  1. Nice Collection, those Ti's look perfect. What Straps are they wearing?
  2. That's quality, I bet even those guys who said "no" cos of the movement will now be thinking twice and itching for this. Top watch
  3. For 148 bucks that's a steal and a half, agreed , that strap looks top notch as well. Wish I could pull 47mm off
  4. That's awesome I love it, that dial is wonderful, is it your own work?
  5. Thats a great project , and its gonna look real good when its done . nice one a sense of achievement for sure
  6. It is a pretty spectacular feat of engineering, if some what excessive
  7. Blimey stunning pictures top work
  8. I cannot comment on the case , I've had a few cases through my hands and I can never tell the difference in bezels and lugs. Personally I'm not a massive fan of the PreV's and A's Dials , to me they've always had that un-finished look about them, I am a sausage man and I have a 002a/b which more to me liking . I can say that i had a 201 from DSN and it was a cracking watch if you are looking for that Vintage look. Those hands look great and the font looks ok to me , but my eyes are old and easily pleased. I will say that I have my concerns on the crystal's Davidsen is using for these though, I don't know why they appear cloudy. It might be the crystal ring or even a slightly grey dial colour, it makes no sense that they are cloudy. My 24a's crystal is amazing . I do wish he would get someone to take better pictures of his watches. They strap is very nice .
  9. I really like the look of this watch, shame you dont like it, I will give it a good home
  10. Get one first and then the other one later, my 229 is like a 104 and it gets a lot of WT recently , but the 005 is a mighty fine watch. 1 is never enough, just accept the way it is.
  11. Like what Pete said. Its a beast of a watch and I lusted for one since it was on the cover of some mag a few years back I'm to puny wristed to pull it off, which is a shame , a top value job despite its faults. Wear it well.
  12. Wow those 3 are just awesome. Great work
  13. Its not the greatest, cheap and cheerful. No sandwich dials were L Swiss L as far as I know. Crowns pretty average, crystal to blue and looks domed , dial lume to green and movement the cheapest of the cheap. But if you like it then wear it with a smile.
  14. I think the question of WHY? Needs to be asked? What do you hope to achieve ? If its greater reliability The asian movements are as reliable and as easily adjusted if need be. If its the looks, then the asian will look more like a gen than any second hand swiss movement you get. As Pete said closed case back as per 005 might be the best option to consider. I guess Josh doesn't offer them , because there aren't any to be had. If you want a correct looking swiss movement you could try DSN but again its debatable if its truly swiss
  15. Not the most flattering of angles, but I've always hankered for a Mark40 Not as keen on these though , but a rare bird
  16. Nice set of hands you got on that , it looks great
  17. Great start , far from the run of the mill average watch and pretty unique , enjoy it ST4
  18. Great review and that really is a superb looking watch.
