x86uops Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 nice watch. can you show a side view picture as well? i'd like to see how high the crystal seats. Thanks, Dean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falco Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 it's a nice trusty 1:1 rep Really like the colour with your lume job I have the same watch, you can fit genuine tube, crown, insert, crystal, bracelet(after drilling) etc... on that one Only difference to an MBW is that the bezel is hold with a spring and bezel/CG finish is not so good but then again it doesn't say Polex 5513 and is 250$ cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tribal Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 I have made a comparsion of this one and a MBW 1680... Believe me if you want a good acurate Case you need a MBW... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where can one buy this MBW, and what is the approximate cost for the watch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Where can one buy this MBW, and what is the approximate cost for the watch? George on TRC sells them for $450, but he's picky with who he deals with. There's talk of TTK organising a big order, and if he gets 50 people, it'll be $350.

Completely agreed Tribal! Gen dials will not fit this case, lugholes to close to case (can't fit gen bracelets without modifying them), bezel loosens to easy... but still it's a cheap little thing I've just turned my 1680 red into a 5513 Gilt with leftover spare parts, it's been a test case a long time for me with lughole drilling, dial painting etc.. fun watch to practice on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alligoat Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 I think these watches serve a good purpose. With a few gen parts, they'll fool 99.99% of the people and they are great beaters. With a little bit of work, they can even be made waterproof. I'd much rather be wearing one of these when I'm tearing stuff up, than a gen!
