daddy_loves-Golf Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 Guys, I'll leave all specific details for Silix to offer, like price, movement etc. if he can talk the watchmaker into making them Count me for one!
Indyclmbr Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 Sorry R11co i just copyed and pasted like it said to do to change MY preferences i never put you down as questionable if you look in post 134 here you will see you have been listed like that all the time, I am well aware that you started the poll. R11co, That's my bad. When I read the through the thread, I thought you said it depended. My apologies. I also like Pugwash's idea of one person keeping the list at this point. He made a good point about multiple people replying at the same time and creating two or more different lists. I don't want to be the one to keep it because my access can be a bit spotty. Any takers? Climb on.
paragonrep Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 (edited) Here's the bezel we need: that bezel has the hash marks between zero and fifteen....the bond does not. Edited February 16, 2007 by paragonrep

Falco Posted February 16, 2007 Author Report Posted February 16, 2007 Whooot ??All of a sudden I'm in second place?? Also, I think you left out daddy_loves-Golf, he wants one too
paragonrep Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 Hmmmmmmmmmmmm. Nanuq, What do you mean? Both links coroborate that the Connery model's "bezel insert is the non-graduated version, meaning there are no extra minute markings between 0 and 15 and the bezel pearl is in the center of a silver triangle". Earlier, I also posted film screenshots that show this as well.
davethecat Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 I want to join in. Do I need to cut & paste the list?
Falco Posted February 16, 2007 Author Report Posted February 16, 2007 I want to join in. Do I need to cut & paste the list? No, just wait until Silix takes the orders when he's ready.
manuel Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 I dont like the red triangle too much, I like it white...anyway I will vintagize the insert by the detergent method... About dial, will it be vintagized? If yes, less job for me...haha About the oyster band...How will the oyster links be? Will all they have the same width? You know...vintage oyster bands style. I would like to have a watch with such a band. Regards
daddy_loves-Golf Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 Whooot ??All of a sudden I'm in second place?? Also, I think you left out daddy_loves-Golf, he wants one too Falco - thanks for the heads up. Can't live without it! DLG

rag9fx Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 it would be nifty to have a vintage rep that has been built from the ground up with input from the forum !
Falco Posted February 19, 2007 Author Report Posted February 19, 2007 it would be nifty to have a vintage rep that has been built from the ground up with input from the forum ! Hope Silix will listen to our suggestions, like Davidsen did w/ the 111H dial. My wish/dream list for a James Bond Sub: Case 1:1 that accept gen parts and have the correct engraving Lugholes drilled to 1.2-1.3 mm Correct Crown Correct bezel in shape and teeth without the spring, but with a crystal retaining ring Matte ivory dial markers on a decent printed dial 2846 movement w/ 445 part (like that's going to be possible ) Correct bracelet what do you think? EDIT: This is of course how just I would like the watch and probably not what Silix will offer (but one can hope )

Price is defintely an important factor, not to expensive. I guess most sub reps are around 110-200 $ depending movement. It would be easier for us and the vintage gurus to have some input on the watch if we had a prototype to see. Hopefully there'll be one soon
r11co Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 If ROL187 re-appears that'll do for me. Bang on a NATO strap and that'll be my collection complete (for a while...)
