TeeJay Posted April 20, 2010 Author Report Posted April 20, 2010 Very nice, is that an additional GMT hand?
gran Posted April 20, 2010 Report Posted April 20, 2010 Very nice, is that an additional GMT hand? Thanks looking to trade it for an FM long Island style actually..need a screw from that watch It is in fact for setting the silly alarm (=reveil)

TeeJay Posted April 20, 2010 Author Report Posted April 20, 2010 Thanks looking to trade it for an FM long Island style actually..need a screw from that watch It is in fact for setting the silly alarm (=reveil) Any time Wish I could be of help with the screw, but best of luck with your search Out of curiosity, what's the alarm like on a mechanical watch? I'd imagine they're not as loud as a digital... Changed to my DRSD today. I'm awaiting a gen 25-39 crystal for ti so it will have a better look then this one Have a nice day Cats It still looks pretty good 'as is'
TeeJay Posted April 20, 2010 Author Report Posted April 20, 2010 Vintage day. Looking good, bro, was that a project build?
vafarmer70 Posted April 20, 2010 Report Posted April 20, 2010 I wish I could take credit for this, I got it his way. Bead blasted case, pvd blead blasted lug straps and crown. Roughed up dial, blue hands, with brass back plate. It is on a custom Peaece13 vintage strap and brass knife-edge buckle. It really is a killer combo.
Star69 Posted April 20, 2010 Report Posted April 20, 2010 only 3 more days and i can finally put on an other watch cheers, Frank
gran Posted April 20, 2010 Report Posted April 20, 2010 Out of curiosity, what's the alarm like on a mechanical watch? I'd imagine they're not as loud as a digital... The alarm is not much of a sound at all, it sounds like a subdued purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr sound
TeeJay Posted April 20, 2010 Author Report Posted April 20, 2010 Today seems to be the day of the GMTs I wish I could take credit for this, I got it his way. Bead blasted case, pvd blead blasted lug straps and crown. Roughed up dial, blue hands, with brass back plate. It is on a custom Peaece13 vintage strap and brass knife-edge buckle. It really is a killer combo. It's an awesome piece for sure The alarm is not much of a sound at all, it sounds like a subdued purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr sound Ahh, more of a vibration alarm?
gran Posted April 20, 2010 Report Posted April 20, 2010 Ahh, more of a vibration alarm? yes much like a vibrator sound
Cats Posted April 20, 2010 Report Posted April 20, 2010 Thanks TeeJay it looks good maybe great but a gen crystal makes a huge difference. I can tell you for sure since i put a gen 127 in my 1680. Nice GMT you got there Frank. Carpe Diem Cats
