@alligoat Did you say that the wm9 PT sub dont takes gen or aftermarket crystals?

[alligoat]

No, the TWB won't take a gen or aftermarket crystal. Based on Star69's using a Cousins crystal, it looks like the PT V1.5 will take a gen or aftermarket crystal.

Ok, because the first mod that im going to do is the crystal removing..

I dont like the pearl on all these models^^

I saw some gen pearls, and these rep pearls are a huge first see giveaway thats a rep in my eyes.

looks like the exact same one i got that he said was the "last one" about a year ago. the lugs, crown and cgs look the same as mine and even the dial. if this is the case mine DID accept a clarks crystal, but to get a gen or aftermarket insert to fit you have to shave down the retaining ring just a bit. with MBKs this caused water seepage but only because they milled out a void in the retaining ring for a nylon gasket, the PT shouldnt have this problem as i didnt. The case is slightly thicker than what it should be and as a result the lugs and bracelet fit is odd. the dial and rehaut engraving are crap and i would change that immediately with a noob dial and a good rehaut sanding, the bezel ring is decent.

gen insert fits without sanding, gen crown fits on the build in tube, gen and after-marked crystals fit too -

that and the superb SELs are the points that speak for the WM9s - (with fit is mean no glue is involved )

i love the dial too - will get it relumed sooner or later - other then that and a gen crown - nothing more is planned or necessary imho

the case i pretty much 1:1 also the crown position is okay - far better then on the WM9 V3s ...

somewhere i did a pictorial of the WM1 vs my gen sub - should be still here on RWG

cheers,
