Pugwash Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Zenith ELP Cal 400 with a gen rolex rotor. The rotor is where you beat Ubi. Of course he wins overall because he has two ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonton2000 Posted January 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 The rotor is where you beat Ubi. Of course he wins overall because he has two ... I think Ubi wins anyway, because im sure he could get the rotor AND bridge if he wanted, AND he has 2! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 I think Ubi wins anyway, because im sure he could get the rotor AND bridge if he wanted, AND he has 2! Well, yeah, he wins because he's Ubi, basically. Still, I'm exceedingly jealous and in awe of the 'Tona. Con-bloody-grats, mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alligoat Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 That is one awesome watch! Bee-U-Tee-Full. Those shots of the movement are great. I guess you're beating Rolex at their own game. Wear it well and enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Yes, the rotor is a lovely touch... I have had more than a few opportunities to get both the bridge and the rotor (combined and a la carte), but it's hard for me to justify the cost on something I'd see only very rarely. Regardless... It's a nice finishing touch to a fantatsic piece!! Enjoy your new lovely tonton!! In my book, it's a keeper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauteHippie Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 The rotor is where you beat Ubi. Of course he wins overall because he has two ... Ubi's utilize gen cases, bracelets, dials (not redials), hands, etc. too. Nevertheless THIS is a great watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jfreeman420 Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 I am definately jealous. Congrats on the ultimate rep. Although of course I would prefer a solid gold case and bracelet. Still searching for my holy grail, :sigh:. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RiverwindMDS Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 I am definately jealous. Congrats on the ultimate rep. Although of course I would prefer a solid gold case and bracelet. Still searching for my holy grail, :sigh:. Two tone is a bit simpler to find but the full gold I think is really difficolt and expensive, but I had a frind that told me he knows someone who can make any rolex case in full gold. I can ask for you if you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
