speedbird100 Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 Does a sorta semi-accurate rep of this watch exist? If not, any way to cobble one together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabularasa415 Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 That's a good question, and I think the answer is no. I love this watch, and I'm currently shopping for a gen. I was going to buy another gen 16610, but finally got my bk tw best and I think my money would be better spent in a rare bird like the fat lady or a 168000 sub.

speedbird100 Posted November 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 yeah, i read through all of the threads containing the reference number on this, and the other boards haha. I always search hard and heavy. I thought I'd ask because so many people around here build such fantastic pieces that I thought maybe someone might have a build underway. Looks like it's more trouble than it's worth. Have you found any gens that have interested you? I've looked but it seems there is a premium on these and the 16710 seems like it might be a cheaper option by a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneed12 Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 I built a GMT Master II out of a Noob Explorer II case with a Submariner caseback. I'm pretty sure it's about the thickness of a "fat lady" but I'm not sure. It's hard to see the difference (in the case dimension) with the naked eye. The caseback is definitely too thick for a 16710, so I might just have a 16710 with a wrong caseback. It doesn't have lugholes, which I think would be wrong for a 16760. I've been looking for a shorter caseback that fits this case, I'll find one eventually. I'll post a pic later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
