I was looking in a drawer for an old wallet, and found a plastic Submariner I picked up in Spain a few years back. I know I've just ordered a replacement black insert for this watch, but, seeing the plastic sub, I couldn't stand the bleach-stripped insert any longer, so performed a transplant :lol: It's not perfect, but, I actually quite like it... It certainly makes the watch 'feel complete' at last (even if not necessarily finished :lol: ) :) I'm now actually considering doing a little gentle vintaging work on it, and keeping this insert in place, as I really like the red quarter...

From this, earlier in the day:

TMG- After seeing your pic, I've decided to shelve the Daytonas and opt for something along the same lines instead...

Thanks, R :drinks:

I was in two minds about it at first, but I really like the red quarter :) I've seen inserts sold on the Bay as 'Tudor Submariner' inserts, but with the same red/black split, as on a Coke GMT II... I'm not sure how accurate they are, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to do this, even if just temporarily, but now it's done, I'm rather liking it, and at least the insert has a little history itself, in its source :)

Have one forsale? lol. I will have to look at it when I get home work seems to block imageshack for some reason. someone was selling an IWC Portuguese 7 days that looked really nice but I think I read about some problems with those.

It's Saturday here, but anyway... Wearing my fave gen of the last couple months (Loyal, full ceramic, swiss). Pic doesn't do it justice but this thing sparkles without bling. Gets body temp warm and stays warm for a while after you remove it. I love it!
