Ephry73 Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 I'm seriously considering the 1665 and abandoning completely the Tudor 5514 franken. E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lhooq Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Keep moving forward ubi ...it's for the children I recently met one little kid who was sobbing inconsolably at the prospect that Ubi might never finish this 1665.

danza1812 Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Wow, great project. Wish I had confidence and skill to put my own projects together, I've just sent my 5513 to Domi for assembly. Wish I'd got one of your 702 crowns, think I was sold an aftermarket one as a gen! Oh well I'll let Domi do his stuff and see how it looks. Hate the waiting though!

coolfire Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 I recently met one little kid who was sobbing inconsolably at the prospect that Ubi might never finish this 1665. His name was coolfire. Very fortunately for me, the stars aligned... and Ubi is again full steam ahead! Ahhh... Yes, my buddy coolfire I can't let him down... And you didn't let me down, mate!

Nanuq Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 "Coordinating"? "Fine details"? Dude, if you can't do it with a hammer & chisel, an acetylene torch or an axe, it don't need done. Build that sucker! People the world over are glued to their computer screens frantically hitting "refresh". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modelizer Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Ooooohhhh, dunno if I want to see the final results on this one.. I might never be able to look my rail dialed MBW 1665 in the face ever again.. Can you put a NSFmodelizer note in the title when it's complete? JK - I can't wait to see it in full glory!

Stephane Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Ooooohhhh, dunno if I want to see the final results on this one.. I might never be able to look my rail dialed MBW 1665 in the face ever again.. Can you put a NSFmodelizer note in the title when it's complete? JK - I can't wait to see it in full glory! I was thinking the exact same thing! I sourced a Rail Dial and I am missing good matching hands... So, I started a mini review of my new great white. But, now, I think I will have to source a better crown, a better case, a better date wheel... Well, better everything except the 2846 movement which is running like a quartz watch!
