usmctowgnr Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 So I got an F date code mbw 16610 case. I have a gen insert, crown/tube, and crystal for it. I found a gen 16610 nos luminova dial that I am gonna get and will be using an eta 2836. My question is..... where can I get a bracelet for the build? I keep reading about "hybrids" built from several different bracelets. Can someone enlighten me or shoot me a message if they have one.... oh I am also in need of a set of super lumed hands.

alligoat Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Seems like I remember the hybrid starting with a set of TWB end links, the hollow mid linked noob bracelet center sections was then used, but I can't remember where the clasp and divers extension came from. Lume on Clark hands is pretty good. Otherwise, you have to get a set relumed by someone like pbdad or ziggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eiderdaus Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 I thought that the gen dial will Be too Small for a mbw Case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

its_urabus Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 ubi, are those sels one piece or 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 The TW Best end links were 3 piece. I had to split them apart to reshape the profile of the center link. I used the TW Best SELs as they fit the tightest to the WM9 case. The WM9 SELs were a decent fit, but not great, per se. Those were 3 piece as well: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

its_urabus Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 well when you have the craziest gw 1665 ever on the front burner, why would you bother with a 16610. to the OP, keep an eye out in the for sale section, I'm pretty sure there have been a few wm9 bracelets for sale recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
