  1. Beauty Would look at home next to me and Warren's Frankens
  2. Just got mine love it Doing an oem crystal and something else Almost bought then until I realized only an ahole pays 6k for an omega non chrono auto then I bought the new jumbo white explorer instead The supposed pearl location flaw couldn't mean less to me. I owned 3gen POs each with the pearl in a incrementally diff location. The pearl on this one feels oem with a sapphire pane On the way to my watch smith now
  3. This is awesome Looks like I can officially bury my Franken yachtie project lol
  4. Just ordered a new oem burgundy calf for my Franken fiddy
  5. Just received my Franken Fiddy from The Zigmeister. It was more or less done and all gen but the crown and mid case but it always bothered me that my top loader mid case would not accept the oem red case gasket (the gasket that mounts the bezel to the case) I have gone through three mid cases with my Franken fiddy. Two Els, neither of which was the highly sought after Version 1 and then the newest noob. Shape wise they were all spot on but I preferred the factory finish of the newest noob. None would accept the oem gasket and none would pass a water proofing pressure test. I asked The Zigmeister to go old school on my case and turn it on a lathe so it would accept the oem gasket The results were flawless. He also sent back the Baggie of the metal filings that were removed from the inner case. Very cool. He sent back the crappy standard rep case gasket as well. No wonder none of the Fiddy reps were waterproof, looks like a plastic ring from a milk jug. Very flimsy. I want to thank him for his attention to perfection and his ability to make this happen He also corrected the lever pin that continually kept popping up on my oem crown guard. So, barring me stumbling into an oem crown or Warren's caseback, Franken fiddy is now officially done and if I were insane I could take it diving. Thanks to Rex for putting here together and thank you to the master for perfecting it. Amazing craftsmanship.
  6. Caseback yachting challenge is spelled challengs
  7. Nope Just received m3amg and mine today Beauty Sapphire Crystal is terrific (odd they posted the initial release pics with the crappy prototype distorted crystal,the final is a home run) Dlc is phenominal winds smooth like an eta, lume is perfect, dial is awesome (the paner ai ) is NOT at all noticeable unless you blow up the pic Caseback mistake is horseh$t but Toro also agreed to send a replacement when available Toro also personally picked our watches and had his guy check and reset the chrono needles, can't guarantee he would do that for everyone but he did for us
  8. I shipped him the donor 111 and barked encouragement from my couch

  10. Same as mine I just listed a brand new noob v3 111 case set in the parts section btw
