GSmaniac Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 clean & crisp, black LV rocks so much ! I´ve build one by myself, but the bloody Datewheel is badly centered and slightly misprinted...im diggin for a better one and helping Hands to install it Also the Crystalretainer must be shaved down to recess deeply an original WM9 green Insert, maybe some german Cracks see my White Flag ?!

Regards GSmaniac Does You really have to shave down the retaining ring ? is it not just to shave down the insert ? In my opinion the black bezel and LV dial looks much better than the standard sub. On my picture it as a genuine pearl I bought on the bay and a V 1,5 insert. Regarding the datewheel, I bought a complete movement ( Eta 2836-2) just for the perfect WM9 datewheel and it really makes a huge diffrence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to shave it a little bit by myself, but the Insert pops out on the Edges Maybe i have milled down the Insert too much so the Borders are to thin to hold in....

Regards GSmaniac ALWAYS glue the insert on the replicas ( as BK says!) , but I tried a genuine insert on my WM9 V1,5 and it snaps in without glue BUT You have to sand it down to make it recessed a bit. But I will glue it anyway as You do not want to loose it and use shoeglue NOT superglue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UT Horn Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 I thought PT's Supreme 16610 only came with rehaut engraving? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-rock Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 UT Horn: I believe you're correct. I spoke with Jamie last night regarding that and it seems the only ones available are with engraved rehaut. But they did say the alignment is very good and they're willing to send pics of the actual watch being purchased before shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star69 Posted November 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 I thought PT's Supreme 16610 only came with rehaut engraving? yes - but it is very easy to remove them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
