Nanuq Posted September 5, 2006 Report Posted September 5, 2006 Greetings gents, There's a guy selling domed tropic 19s on Ebay right now, and one other holy grail crystal... he's selling a tropic 17. I've been looking for one of these for my 6536 forever, and am the high bidder. I'd ask you to please reconsider before bidding against me, my name there is "Oomingmaq" and I'd sure love to win this piece. If you do bid and ultimately win it, please keep me in mind down the road if you decide to sell it. Cheers! -Bob

Note i bid on the datewheel Rg tribal
Tribal Posted September 5, 2006 Report Posted September 5, 2006 Thanks! I've got a tropic 16 that will fit, but the 17 is THE perfect crystal, making my Bond Sub look like a Sea Dweller. Man I've looked a long time. hope you catch it..... Rg tribal
lionsandtigers Posted September 5, 2006 Report Posted September 5, 2006 shyte tribal, would've loved that datewheel, but i can bid against you next one i see is mine though
Tribal Posted September 5, 2006 Report Posted September 5, 2006 shyte tribal, would've loved that datewheel, but i can bid against you next one i see is mine though Nice thanks for that By the way you need also a new movement for the datewheel because the date changed counterwise... Rg tribal
ubiquitous Posted September 6, 2006 Report Posted September 6, 2006 Having the right datewheel on our MBW's would be nice, but alas, they just won't work with the ETAs (believe me... I've tried)... There are some solutions to the problem... But I'd prefer to go with an ETA...
lionsandtigers Posted September 6, 2006 Report Posted September 6, 2006 hey ubi, why wont they work on the eta, do they just not line up properly?
ubiquitous Posted September 6, 2006 Report Posted September 6, 2006 Yup... Rotates CCW, while ETAs rotate CW.
2005SUBMARINER Posted September 11, 2006 Report Posted September 11, 2006 awsome cant wait to see it installed
ubiquitous Posted September 11, 2006 Report Posted September 11, 2006 Nice score, Bob!! Can't wait to see the Tropic installed on that lovely 6536! So... Hurry up and post some images!!
HauteHippie Posted September 11, 2006 Report Posted September 11, 2006 SCORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At the last moment I was looking at the auction and he said the tropic 16 is for the 6536/1 while the tropic 18 is for my 6536... and I WON IT!!! It was fairly expensive but man is this going to look nice! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! BTW: not to worry, now I have a tropic 16 AND a tropic 18 so it doesn't matter which one winds up fitting my case. Congrats. This will be sweet.
lionsandtigers Posted September 11, 2006 Report Posted September 11, 2006 right on!!! congrats on scoring that one, cant wait to see the pics nothing like dropping a nice little piece of coin for something you love
