PAM_SWE Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 LOL I'm waiting weeks for my Bk TW Sub. A few days wont hurt you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmtlover Posted January 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 LOL I'm waiting weeks for my Bk TW Sub. A few days wont hurt you I know but shipping would take 3-5 days normally, now it will be 2 weeks probably. You were probably told that it will take a few weeks, so nothing changed for your expectance. But I am still updating the tracking every hour haha even though nothing will change before tomorrow.

JoeyB Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Waiting is the worst part of ordering anything on line, and worse when the shipping is an insult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jkay Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 No. Just thank God you didn't order this from China. These holidays can cause a 1 month delay in arrival times from China. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmtlover Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Well guys here it is. Some pics! `crystal is pressed in nice This is the front, good bezel and new BK date wheel. I just ordered trevor's dial who has thinner platinum lines on the hour markers and is more gen like, so will probably replace it. The lume isn't great the hands are green at first while the hour markers are blue but it can't be seen on a photo ( with iphone 4 at least ). but the lume does last long, after sleeping an entire night (8 hours) the watch did still glow when i woke up. But I will probably also let someone do the lume or I will learn myself. Lumshot: another one: Are there also other mods that can be done on this BK DSSD to make it more gen like besides what is already done and by changing the dial and lume?

gmtlover Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 btw, there is a big flaw in the description on all TD sites, the bezel isn't unidirectional.. It only turns anti-clockwise..or I have a faulty one of course that's also possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Uni-directional means that it only turns one way. Yours is working properly. You are confusing with the word "bi-directional" For a watch to be rated for diving, the dive timer bezel MUST be uni-directional to prevent mishaps.
