Another Sub...

I dug this out yesterday to install the missing pearl and realized I don't think I've ever worn it! I bought the case and band over a year ago from a Bro. on RWI - have no idea what kind of case but it was advertised as having a gen crown. It has gen-like bezel construction that takes a gen replacement click-spring, no rehaut engraving, but has the Gawd-awful etched coronet on the crystal. A DG 2813 and Noob dial cap it off.

Here's a couple of pics.

Not yet...

I'm trying to resist the urge to take the drill to it! I think I'll probably leave it as is, but I do have a stash of non-COSC no-date dials laying around...

I wonder if it's a Euromariner, JB? Mine is an A serial w/ the lugholes, but maybe yours is the M serial... Maybe you could swap in a Clark's 25-295-C2 to get rid of the etched crown. If the DG-2813 holds up, it could be a great beater with the new crystal.

^^^Remember that chris @ ETZ sold all his euromariner's with the clark's crystal already installed.

It's bee nice to see that this would take gen parts like a clark crystal.

Some cg shaping and this thing is looking great!

The early ones like mine didn't have the Clark's crystal- it had a two gasketed etched crystal. JMB's with the etched crystal is either an early euromariner or of some other manufacture.

Cool, I did not know that.

This is a rare find, no?

Old school indeed!
