Trying to find an OEM Nylon/"Kevlar" strap for my ceramic pilot online. Anyone know of any shops online selling OEM straps/buckles? Cheers, Andrew

Same deal ^. Dont think my watch is my QC watch. half my caseback is not brushed or is damaged (the side wall of the caseback), half the tang buckle is no brushed, few dings in the caseback, and worst of all, bezel is perfect, but i think the dial is crooked, because the markers dont line up with the bezel markings. But i have to say, the piece looks amazing, and fits perfect. Too bad it has to get shipped back for repair Looks like i'm stuck with this for the weekend

I'd accept that one

This one looks awesome. Only thing other than pearl/triangle that needs to be looked at is the hands (the pointer is too small, and the arrow is a little too narrow) and the curves parts on teh 12, 6, 9 need to be more curved. Looks like the polished areas on the lug edges isnt the right size or shape either... hopefully final product is better. Youll see what im talking about in a side by side.

it would be nice if Noob factory had the same technology that H factory has for the Hublot Diver. That bezel ring is pretty good

i received the whole lot of pictures, the pic taken from further away (straight on the dial) also confirms this misalignment. I rejected it as soon as i opened the pictures. Going for number 4! This was the zoomed out pic. Asian movement. i actually switched my order from swiss to asian after reading a few posts about each type

This is the QC pic that i got, I'm pretty sure that most of the markers and number indicies on the lower half of the bezel dont line up, and it would be hard to fix with relume. I think it should be closer to this...

which dealer is this from? 12 looks good, crown is a little close to case, but that can be fixed.

i'll take it off your hands. no one wants to keep a banged up watch

mine left yesterday night. Very Excited

ARRRRRGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!! pre ordered soooooooooooo long ago, and now knowing that its "very nice"... this is killer.

Does anyone know if she'll be fully lumed?

The normal length strap is 115/75. Mine is a little off that (slightly bigger, but not even a full 1mm), but i think it has been stretched from daily use. BP strap length is 145/55 (22/18), can be squeezed into the 3717 case. (best length if using deployment)

Thanks for all the replies guys. Sometimes you are overwhelmed with the descriptions of some of the watches on NDT, etc... and i guess you are always expecting the best, hoping for the best, never expecting the worst, hoping for that rare almost perfect one to slip through. I guess, i will start to hunt around for my own parts and will hopefuly be back here to ask a ton of questions on how to do this and that. Thanks Again, A

Hey Guys, I have never worn a rolex before, and am not to fond of newer models. That being said, the vintage stuff really hits the spot. I've been looking around for parts and pieces to build a franken piece. I have come across a few ND trading Dials. This is where my question starts, and i need help. What/who is NDT? They have a website, with parts, and full builds. Any information on their complete builds. They look pretty good, and alot of them (well from their descriptions) seem to have gen/service parts, in addition to their dials and cases (not sure whos cases they use). Any backround an these guys is greatly appreciated, and hopefully i'll be able to diversify from my current IWC and panerai collecting Cheers, Andrew

Lol, i've reported this watch 3 times now!

I've read its supposed to be a TT V8 or turbo 10... 600+hp or something ret*rded like that. Even though the current v10 is a little light on power, it hauls a$$ for its size

Another S8 w/ V10 ~ Thats what i'm talking about! We just picked up one from 09 because we're not sure if the new one will ever makes its way to Canada.

Any offshot brand of Levi's Capital E's Made & Crafted others to trust (when you can get a good discount) Earnest Sewn APC Rag & Bone Nothing fancy, no ugly stitching on the pockets.

This dial looks amazing! I think the 249 is the only Rad watch that should be produced Someone build the case and crown and i'm in for a dial FOR SURE!

Thanks Guys

Hey Guys, I was wondering if anyone had fit a gen dial in with a rep tachy ring? Do they fit? If yes, does the ring still sit far enough away from the date window to look gen? Any help or pictures would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

C, have you been able to acquire gen crowns for the 3714s?

Pic of gen (stolen from the net somewhere)... Dial does loook a little funny, and i have seen the new ports coming out, and the new chrono doesn't look like this one. For the question above about accuracy... you need a different (gen) crown if you really want to pull it off 99% Cheers, great looking piece over all, and that movement kicks butt!

Please do not buy Armani Jeans!!!! Stick to someone who makes a quality jean (11-13oz), and go with a selvege cut denim. Do not buy a jean that has wiskers, or is acid washed or has any type of fading!!!! ewww :S - lol In any case, buy Raw denim, nothing pre washed (check teh pockets inside).. if they are still white/offwhite you are good.. if they are blueish stay away. Top of the price range about (200-500$, although at that high end, you are paying for the name)... Look at: - Nudie - True religion (only a few that aren't ugly) - Rag + bone - A.P.C - Citizens - Earnest Sewn (if you are in NYC, get your custom made - they are amazing) Low end (75-200$) - Earnest Sewn (if you are in NYC, get your custom made - they are amazing) - Dr. Denim - Rag + bone - A.P.C - Citizens - no joke here, but GAP (1969 - original selvege).. Its like 80$ for a heavy, selvege cut jean... good quality and hella low price
