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.

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.

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

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 :D )

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 :D )

we can only hope and dream right? why don't you throw in a rep 1:1 movment while you're at it ( only kidding) ... a good spec case and dial would be nice... i'll be had at hello if the price is right. i feel less guilty and anxious when tearing down an inexspensive rep in an attempt to mod it . whats cool about it is that hopefully some input from our vintage gurus here will be taken into account in pre-production .... then we'll all be laughing . :thumbsupsmileyanim:

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
