StormTooper4 Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 Thought I'd take some pictures of my twenties with the 26k re-release that one can get ticked off but how many 21's or 23's have we got on RWG Cheers ST4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmeister Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 Here are most of the 20's I have done over the years.

StormTooper4 Posted October 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 29b Jurgenk That is a really nice example you got there where is that from ? Here are most of the 20's I have done over the years. I just wish I was still in my 20's PAM 27 PAM 23 As always you have the best examples the 27 is always a winner but that 23 really is a rarity. I think yours is truly unique on rwg is it a gen dial in a 29 case or all gen? I know it got slated by a few but I have never seen anyone post one of DSN 23 on here I would of liked a review on that . Is there any Difference in the New and original versions of the 29 except the caseback and possible L-SM-L but I notice your Hopno 29 isnt a T dial so maybe they are the same dials Anyone got a 21?

Watchmeister Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 On the 23, the dial, hands, crystal, bezel, crown and cg are gen. The case is either a Fu or gen (I can't remember) and the caseback and movement are original Honpo. I just remember that the gen bezel couldn't fit on what was available in rep cases at that time. The 27 had the same specs but as I mentioned has long since disappeared. On the 29, Honpo never made a t-swiss-t. in reality Honpo never made more than 100-150 examples of any specific watch in their first runs. And their dials and other parts often changed in subsequent runs. It was a different time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Such a great thread.... and some great reps.. Always fancied a nice 29 or second choice a 23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pizzanooo Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Picked this one up over the summer. Sold my last el 28 a few years back and always regretted it. This ones currently at vacs shop for new hands, date mag, and give those numbers a nice T dial look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siesta181 Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 EL 029B DSN 028A I just love my EL 029B. Simply an elegant watch to wear and while i dont really favour the 028A, I just can't see myself selling it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormTooper4 Posted November 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 The range in the 20's really does cover a diverse set of watches. It does though seem to be the 29 and 28 that really get the blood pumping. I know what ypu mean about the 28 mine doesn't get the wrist time it deserves I wear my 195 more but its such a classic. I need the explorer type GMT but the tux dial doesn't win me over I think I prefer the Matt 23. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
