cyphion Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 So I just got some pics from PBDad regarding that MBK 16710 from a while ago. Its done, and on its way back to me. So here is a teaser pic, and more to follow once it gets here. http://img138.imageshack.us/i/imageargz.jpg/'> Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zeleni kukuruz Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Be sure to press in the insert when you get it becuse its not pressed in properly. Cant wait to see another nice gmt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyphion Posted December 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Lol, I know. These were work in progress pictures. The cyclops had to be moved, because it was crooked from the factory.

By-Tor Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 I think the MBK version of 16710 was the same as the "TW Best" version. Look here. http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/35969-review-of-rolex-gmt-master-ii-tw-best-outdated-model/ Definitely not very accurate OTB but a good base for mods.

cyphion Posted December 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 By-tor, I think you may be right. It will be here tomorrow or Friday, so we can see. I had PB do the full works on it. Here is what I had done: Work completed: -custom assembly -slight case softening and aging -drill and chamfer lug holes -2mm springbars -slight fade to insert -trim, shape and soften cgs -move cyclops -install h4 onto supplied mvmt -install supplied dwo -relume dial and hands in superluminova -modify mvmt ring -supply mvmt tabs -grease gaskets Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
