  1. This build was EPIC! Almost two years in the making. The owner was very demanding as he's familiar with the original of this specific year. Dial was redone twice !!! As well as the engravings untill the goal was reached. A great piece resulted of all this good attention. Enjoy the pics !!!
  2. I'm sure many of you are familiar with the Cartel maker (aka JKF) who released a load of decent Vintage Rolex recently. I saw on Ryans site that he now offers a second "Best" version that appears to be from a different maker. I don't know in what way it should be better, it's just called "best", so I'm going to keep referring to it as "best" to distinct it from the JKF/Cartel edition. I personally prefer the "best" version's insert. Crown guards appear to be bigger, which isn't a bad thing if you're a modder. I personally don't care about the dials, since I would never wear either one of these with the stock dial, but I assume there are plenty of others who intend to keep the dials. Below is a side-by-side between JKF/Cartel (always on the LEFT) and the "best" version (always on the RIGHT). I'd be curious if the 1680 "best" version takes gen dials (the JKF does not without mods! Gen dials are about 0.5mm too big) Rolex 1680 Red Sub (JKF vs. BEST): Rolex 1665 Double Red SeaDweller (JKF vs. BEST): I have not taken a loupe to compare them pixel-by-pixel, but here's what struck my eye. Better on the new "Best" version: Bezel Insert (Fatter font & already slightly faded color) Bezel Ring (Slimmer, Groves not as deep) Better on the JKF/Cartel Version: Clasp (rolex coronet is slimmer) Endlinks (they are both wrong, they shouldnt have holes for a springbar tool, but at least the JKF has the correct number -580- on the otherwise wrong endlinks)
  3. Hi All, it's my 1st reshape, so I'd like to have some comment from the experts to check if I did a mess or I'm proceeding well. And if you have some suggestion to give me. One crown guard and the relative lug have been reshaped, the other is stock. The lug holes have been already moved to 1.25mm Thank you. GenTLe
  4. Hi! Just wanted to show my first build. I would really appreciate some feedback from you guys. Unfortunately the watch is not waterproof, I think it's because the xtal retainer has worn out. Sorry for the bad pics with the fingerprints The specs: Case - Cartel. Reshaped, aged and polished. Lug holes drilled. Caseback - Cartel. Aged, the paint in the engravings removed. Bezel assemby - Cartel. Ssteel made some work to tighten it. Bezel insert - Yuki. Had it in bleach for 15 min for a slight faded effect. Bezel insert pearl - Yuki, relumed by Big Daz Crown - Gen vintage 703. Dial - Whoopy 1665 DRSD mk2, lumed by Big Daz. Hands - Clarks, lumed by Big Daz. Datewheel - Polexpete silver dw. Installed by Ssteel. Crystal - Sternkreuz t39. 2834-2 movement, regulated by Ssteel. Endlinks - WSO 580. Bracelet - Unknown maker. Hope TC starts doing 93150 soon Clasp - not sure but I think its a TC 93250 v5
  5. Hi, can anyone tell me whether the phong 1665 bezel assembly fits on the Cartel 1665 cases? Phong told me they fit on 'genuine rolex cases', but I was hoping I can also use a Cartel case (1500$ for his case set is definitely too steep for me). Thanks
  6. Just snagged a Phong midcase/caseback, yuki hev, and clarks bezel assembly/crystal from fellow member Think7. All I can say is: WOW. Flawless transaction and the fastest shipping I've ever experienced (coast to coast in 2 days!). I'd like to drop a 1570 in here, but for the moment I will settle with an eta. Does anyone besides yuki sell the eta movement adaptor? I also have an old-school MBW bezel/thin numbers insert - would this be more accurate than the clarks assembly?
  7. Few photos for You enjoyment! Typical Scottish weather today, sunshine and storm at once Thanks
  8. Hi troops, Bored this evening i thought i might take few photographs of my favorite Rolex. Enjoy! Thanks!
