MBW AP Royal Oak jumbo - First-batch/Second-batch


Katerchen

Recommended Posts

I currently acquiring parts for a franken tudor sub, but I am interested in an AP assembled for me also. Count me in.

twon12 (tony).

Alrite... acknowlegded.

Problem is Rolexfinder/Paul has still to negotiate

with his dial-producer.

i guess hes busy with the group-buy for

moding the screws of this AP mbw jumbo.

As soon as (we) or i hear something about

the quality and ability of his source in dial-reping.

We or i will let you know!

Best thing is to start a second thread

with UNMISTAKABLY TITEL

to gather as much of you people interested in

this project...

Sorry guys, to me there is no way i will

call my AP contact before theres no reasonable

and "better than existing mbw/mbk dial-way"

in sight to accomplish this project.

End of transmission so far :)

Lets see...

One of the main issues that I always had with all of my baton dialed AP reps was the shape of the hands. Note here in katerchen's pic, how shapely the gen hands are with the rounded edges, thin section of lume, beveled center base and small hole at the pinion:

To me, that has always been one of the bigger flaws, as the rep hands are flat with little to no depth or shape at all:

Would be interesting if you guys can commission a correct set of those as well...

One thing at a time, I suppose...

Thanxs Ubi... finally someone (else) pointed this issue out too.

Before i posted this pics here, i got questions if i see "ghosts".

A genuine set of hands for the jumbo must be around 100,-

@aanival

follow this thread --->

i will post prices ASAP!!

havent heard something "new" from paul/rolexfinder till today -

he said he is in contact with some guys in asia with

"capability" of cloning a gen dial.

Have no references/pics from his source though...

Only thing i can do is "open a door" for

a few members to order gen parts.

Anyway youll have to "walk trough that door by choice"...

I dont mind if you are going to buy

as a "single" person or if maybe

few people stick together to order a part

as "group buy", maybe to replicate something.

I guess more talk is to early -

i have to know prices too!
