Hi Guys! I want to show you my last project, I bought this MBW 5512 from a member of spanish forum one year ago with those specs
 
- MBW old school case reshaped and modded CG
- Yuki Hands, Dial & Pearl
- Brazalet CO
- Endlinks WSO
- PWMF Insert
 
excellent base for make lovely franken 5512 :rolleyes:
 
And One month ago shipped the watch to my friend Rezarius (that He has done fantastic job!!  :notworthy:  :notworthy: )  for install those gen pieces
 
- GEN Rolex Crown and Tube 720/7020
- GEN Insert 
- GEN Pearl with nice vintage patina
- GEN Crystal T19
- GEN Swiss ETA 2846 low beat movement
 
I'm very happy with the finally result :D

"This is my idea of a great rep! Great parts list and a 2846-2 engine."

 

+1

 

"I think a watch like this is every bit as good as the original watch that Rolex put out 30-40 years ago."

 

Imho it is pretty close to a 5513 with a 1520 if it seals against water and it looks like this one will...

- GEN Rolex Crown and Tube 720/7020

- GEN Crystal T19
 
...and the Eta movement takes the worry out of owning a 'vintage rolex'.  :pimp:

Well done. Nice to see good shots of the pmwf insert. Where did you say you got the bracelet?

 

The bracelet is from Cousins UK. PMWF fat font insert its awesome, but the problem its rep pearl..With gen take this to the next level
