Datlore001 Posted March 27, 2012 Report Posted March 27, 2012 Hey guys, looking for a good full-size Seamaster Pro non-chrono rep with a black bezel that will fit a genuine dial and genuine ETA 2892-A2. Does such a thing exist?
FxrAndy Posted March 27, 2012 Report Posted March 27, 2012 I got one from Mary that i Built a franken, with gen every thing except the case and bezel
Datlore001 Posted March 27, 2012 Author Report Posted March 27, 2012 Pardon the ignorance, but which dealer is Mary? Do you have any pictures to share of your timepiece? Thanks!
FxrAndy Posted March 27, 2012 Report Posted March 27, 2012 Mary is watch international http://www.rwg.cc/forum/240-watch-international/
Datlore001 Posted March 27, 2012 Author Report Posted March 27, 2012 Thank you, kind sir. Very nice watch.
cougar1 Posted March 29, 2012 Report Posted March 29, 2012 Nice franken andy! Yep the blue one from mary seems to be the way to go, if you are modding the dial then you can just pick up a black insert for the bezel on ebay aswell. Gen bezels are lovely but too dear, easier to pick up 2nd hand bezel or different smp bezel and do mods with the pearl. This guy is good for cheap donor bezels....sometimes1 http://forums.watchnet.com/index.php?t=tree&goto=540150&rid=0
Datlore001 Posted March 29, 2012 Author Report Posted March 29, 2012 Wow, thanks cougar1. I actually got my dial from him on Ebay. I am going to message him about that stainless bezel. I would actually prefer that to the blue or black. Will Mary's SMP fit a gen bezel?
cougar1 Posted March 29, 2012 Report Posted March 29, 2012 There was a version of the rep smp from a few years ago that accepted the gen bezel straight on, but I'm not too sure if mary's current one will, never did the mods on these, maybe andy or others who've tried it could clarify. At the very least the gen bezel insert will go on easily enough, which basically does the same job.
FxrAndy Posted March 29, 2012 Report Posted March 29, 2012 Gen Bezel insert fits Mary's one perfectly
cougar1 Posted March 29, 2012 Report Posted March 29, 2012 Nice one, doing the insert swap is perfect anyway, wasn't there an smp case from a few years ago that the whole bezel assembly fit on without modification?
