silvio Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Congrats! Looks excellent. Is that an added 'shoulder' (rounded edges) to the lugs? Looks like a gen. And very nice CG as well. Keeps us posted pls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellomen Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Very nice single red!! Congrats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mezzanine Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Very nice! I remember when you were in your parts assembling phase...it's worked out very well. Are you convinced that the insert is genuine? I find that the insert is probably the most underrated upgrade...and if I remember correctly, you bought an entirely new bezel assembly. I've considered upgrading the bezel, as the teeth on the gens seem better cut and defined.. I'm guessing you ended up using the aftermarket dial you picked up? I've also found that replacing the rep dial with a good aftermarket or gen is another very worthwhile upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 That dial is a nice upgrade over the MBW dial- thinner font on the 660ft=200m. Pointed crown guards are a nice touch also- MBW's are too thick on the outside. Good job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ptolomeo Posted January 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 You can look at the full review here Nice watch i can spot the workmanship on that watch why is it so familiar ... hehe ahhh its there in my signature beautiful piece wear it well ! regards laz Laz, I've used yours in my review. Cheers! Congrats! Looks excellent. Is that an added 'shoulder' (rounded edges) to the lugs? Looks like a gen. And very nice CG as well. Keeps us posted pls. Thanks. Tribal is the master. His mods in the CG are very nice for sure. Very nice single red!! Congrats Thanks, my friend. Very nice! I remember when you were in your parts assembling phase...it's worked out very well.

I've considered upgrading the bezel, as the teeth on the gens seem better cut and defined.. I'm guessing you ended up using the aftermarket dial you picked up? I've also found that replacing the rep dial with a good aftermarket or gen is another very worthwhile upgrade. The bezel and the insert are genuine for sure. The MBW's bezel is good enough but I found the gen one -an expensive part- and I couldn't resist. The dial is great! Look at the pics in my review That dial is a nice upgrade over the MBW dial- thinner font on the 660ft=200m. Pointed crown guards are a nice touch also- MBW's are too thick on the outside. Good job! Thanks, alli. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
