triplehd Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 I think many of you know that I am an Omega guy true and true, but everyone needs one Rollie in their collection, right? The crystal, dial, hands, bracelet, and movement came from one type of sub, case came from another type of sub and the insert was purchased off the bay. What do you guys think?

triplehd Posted February 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 Thanks Red. I think the crystal mag (hint hint) is a tell sign of what kind of case this is..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justlounging Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 Very nice!! now a more accurate coronet on the clasp would be the icing on the cake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triplehd Posted February 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 Very nice!! now a more accurate coronet on the clasp would be the icing on the cake Not being a Rollie expert - anyone got a pic an accurate coronet on the clasp? I do have a spare bracelet and notice the coronet on that clasp is a bit bigger than the one i have pictured. Is that correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justlounging Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 Have a look at this url: http://rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=198716&highlight=16610 It shows a very clear pic of the clasp..and other parts of the 16610.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplehd Posted February 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 Many thanks J. It will be on my radar for a part to look out for. Also - love how the crystal pops. I need to shave my insert (had PB do it) a bit more to get the same effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justlounging Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 You might also want to to epoxy clear the pearl.. You can refer to BK's latest TW 16610 as reference.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highoeyazmuhudee Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 almost looks an old MBK 16610 case. id get a better bracelet then wear the sh!t out of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefcook Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 get a better bracelet and you have a nice sub rep... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplehd Posted February 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 OK - I will be on the look out for a new bracelet. Would a TW Bracelet do the trick? if so - anyone got a spare bracelet they would like to part with? Also - hows the insert on this? I think the numbers are not as bold as the gen insert. Any insight where i can get (if needed) a better insert? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefcook Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 The TW bracelet surely is nice but at the moment I'd wait on how TC's third attempt on the bracelet turns out. In two or three weeks we should know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
