freddy333 Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 I have bumped a handful of old technical threads that I think will be of interest to newer members that missed them on their 1st run. RWG contains a true wealth of technical information that cannot be found (& has often been copied) on other sites - including the gen sites. These are the types of threads that brought many, including myself, to RWG & kept us here. Many (most?) of the breakthroughs that bridged reps, frankens & gens came from these threads, & many of today's vintage Rolex reps owe their accuracy to the pioneering work of many early & talented RWG members. Unfortunately, due to the passing of time & other indulgences, I am unable to add much to these threads beyond what they contain, so if you seek additional info, please do not be surprised if nothing more is provided. Also, due to the numerous forum software upgrades, some links may be broken &/or pics missing, so you may need to perform some detective work on your own. Enjoy. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mir36 Posted July 26, 2016 Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 Thank you for all the bumps. I missed out on many of these as I was in my Panerai phase. We really need a sticky for all these build posts, each a masterclass in its own right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome aboard & we hope to see contributions from new members in the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
