Puretime's 1665


62mas

Recommended Posts

Be careful with this one, you might want to read Puretimes (Angus') reviews on service. Also the watch accepts no gen parts, arrives with a terrible crystal, missing gaskets, Inserts have to be epoxied in, non gen construction on the bezel, etc etc.

The only bonus is the ETA movement.

I can't tell you which DRSD dial to get, but what I'd do is look at www.doubleredseadweller.com and compare. Then make your choice and go for it. I like my PT Sea-Dweller, but I put an MBW dial in it- great white- and it wasn't an easy mod for me. But if you don't do too much, or nothing at all, it's OK. And it has the 2846 which is a nice slow beat movement.

If you leave the crystal and bezel assembly alone, you'll be fine.

What I did was:

nice G&S T-39 high dome crystal

custom jmb crystal retaining ring- this brings it up close to gen spec and is WR.

MBW great white dial

trim the crown guards

gen crown and aftermarket tube

It's been a great beater for me and a little more low key than a DRSD which is kinda rich for my blood

Here's a fuzzy pic
