Ueno Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Well I just love the no-date submariner, so I went ahead and bought the 5513 from Josh. I was very happy with the watch as it was, but I wanted to improve it a little bit, so I talked to the man PBdad... I am so glad that I got him to do his work on this piece. I told him what I wanted done and He totally just surprised me, I mean his work is just amazing. Work preformed: -slight aging -cgs shaped, softened, and polished -bezel insert slight fading -new Clark T19, distressed and buffed -Gen crown and tube +install -lugs and endlinks drilled, and bracelet modded for 2mm spring bars -2mm spring bars -dial, pearl, and hands relumed in vintage "tritium" and contaminated -matte dial sealer -new YUKI ETA hands -New ETA 2846-2 slowbeat motor -sealed and tested Here are some pictures that I got from him. As a matter of fact He is trying it out for the long weekend. I will be getting it next week. I will take a lot more pitures when I get it and post them. I hope you guys enjoy these ones. Here is some quick ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
