Hey all!

I need help with two watches within Europe.

1. Breitling Blackbird;

- Need to swap AR'd-crystal from broken BB to new BB.

2. Omega UPO 45mm;

- Need to re-glue a hour-marker that have fallen off

If there is anyone that feels that they want to help me out with these two fixes and also get some extra money please quote me a price and I will gladly pay for this service.

thanks in advance,

damnit.

Chief's in US, right?

Then I have to deal with customer-risk everytime I send to him?

Or how safe is it from europe to US, maybe no problem if I let him do the crystal-in-out also?

Hey all..

I need to remove the crystal on my blackbird since it stopped working a while ago.

I was about to send it to Jakub so he could fix it in my next batch to him, but as we dont know where that is going I will do it myself.

I will get a new blackbird and swap my AR'd crystal to the new watch, but how do you remove it?

I have not done any mods myself earlier except changing straps so..

is it easy or hard?

What tools do I need??

Here is my love, I cant let it sit in the watchbox any longer!!

Please assist me,

thanks!

I dont think its only you, yacht_master, that has a whole watch at J's.

I have 5.. 4 reps and 1 gen ..

and if everyone just give him some time everything will be done and finished in a near future..

I have 4 reps and 1 gen at J's .. I feel most for my gen tissot haha

1 bce +new dw, 1 navi +new dw, 1 rollie gmt2, 1 porsche flat6 and my only 1 year old gen tissot (model don't know) - bought it just before start collecting reps.. :/

doh!

i still have faith in J but this must be sorted out asap..

Skyland all day .. today .. on rubberstrap...

Reverse the buckle so it opens the opposite way

This is a 2-minutes quick fix and removed the pain I got from my RG Tuiga.. I got really suprised that this work.. well yeh the clasp will be upside down..but hey.. no pain !!

The strange thing is that my Platinum Mat has no pain-problem as the RG Tuiga..so maybe they got it right in later batches.. or maybe its not same factory..

try the above.. my advise..

Hi!

Why is it a giveaway? it's the "Bentley 6.75" I own this model too, but in black. The gen version of this has the same subdial arrangement as the rep, and the gen even doesn't have a 30 secs chrono, like the standard "Bentley Motors".

Rep almost exactly same as the gen. I've tried it by four dealers till now, four of them said it's gen... (The 2nd dealer was a breitling servicer, and he busted it because of the slide rule, because on the gen the glass shouldn't move when you turn the bezel...)

Nice watch, enjoy it!

hmm.. lack of AR ..anyone?? .. that is the first I notice..but hey I may be wrong..

here is the 6.75's friend "GT" with double AR from Jakub...

1100$ for a rep???? something is going wrong here.....

I also feel that 1100 is a bit too much but we have to calc in that the reps are way better today than for a year or two ago.

and also the dollar is pretty low at the moment (even if it got some strength back over the last weeks)...

still wearing my AP.. damnit.

I didnt even like AP a couple of weeks ago.. and now I have two (safari+rubber)

How can you calm down, When u payed him money and your watch is with him for almost half a year ???????

And he is not responding to any of my email :angry:

PRetty sure he would scam this time

I never pay before the watches are done! Are you paying in advance?

He has the watches as safty, dont need to pay in advance.

There is probably a good enough reason for this delay.

I dont think he scam anyone, especially not when I think his AR-business is going pretty good.

maybe he's sick or whatever.. I'll sure we find out in the near future and hopefully we can get our watches back with our without AR...

Wow that looks just beautiful, If you don't mind me asking what camera (model) did you use to take those?

I use a Nikon D40X.

borrowed a friends dress watch..fits perfect under the sleve..

oh.. wait..

it should be like this..

I have a rubber and grey stitching that i can sell.

Give me a quote including shipping with tracking to Sweden?

- thanks, tazz

When you can't handle it, you should not take so many watches and limit the number...

so true!

we'll have to wait and see, I have full confidence in Jakub, he always been good to me even things are slow sometimes..

Looking for Rubber and/or kevlar and/or carbon straps for AP from Oraclestraps ,

anyone that have a spare and want to sell?

- tazz

I dont think that its posting it that is the thing.

Have he told you that your watches is finished and re-installed and ready for posting?

As I understand there are several parts of this proceedure.

Jakub collects, brings to a watchsmith that removes the crystal, then to a Lab that makes the coating, then back to the watchsmith and then jakub collects everything and mails back.

I might be wrong , but thats how I understood the proceedure.
