jkarpas Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 very nice! is this from davidsen? i love the stealth unbranded look
maulermacall@hotmail.com Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 What a fantastic watch! This is my next purchase, what strap is it? Looks great! P.S Sorry for my name being similiar to yours, its purely coincendential, if I hadnt become a suporter I would have changed it!
swdivad Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 Very nice... Please tell us where this came from... It doesn't look like a DSN, as his PVD is more matte... this is smoother and closer finish to the real deal :-) Great on that strap too!! Wear it well
frankpower88 Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 wow, the most beautifull pvd i have seen
dluddy Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 Looks teriffic. Love to hear more about it. Love the strap
peepshow Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 That's a DSN case that old skool took a cape cod cloth to. It looks really nice.

gianton Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 Isn't it a Vac watch? Wear it well m8!
peepshow Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 Gianton, it could be a vac watch. He quite often sources parts from Davidsen, from what I understand. It could also be a watch straight from DSN himself, he (DSN) has an entire photobucket album devoted to his "unbranded" pieces.

peepshow Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 (edited) Crap, Andy, how did I know someone was going to ask me that? Let me see if I can dig it up. I believe DSN started it due to all of the undbranded requests he was getting from gen watch sites. Hold one.... EDIT -- I can't find it. I know he has one, though. I guess just send him an email and ask him for the creds for that photobucket album. Seems like it was: James123Chen or something similar... Edited February 3, 2008 by peepshow
old skool Posted February 3, 2008 Author Report Posted February 3, 2008 Hey sorry I am so late to the game here...I should have listed this previously... It is a watch made by Davidsen. I couldn't decide on the vintage lume sausage base dial or this superluminova sandwhich dial. I am still not sure I made the best decision. I kept telling myself that if I got the sausage dial I would want to send it out to Vac for custom lume and that would have been expensive so I just bit the bullet and got the C1 lume dial. Maybe later on I will buy an extra dial, have it lumed and swap it in.... Anyway, thanks for the compliments. I hit the case with some Cape Cod. I am using the SC buckle obviously. The strap is something I made for my 177, but I think it looks nicer on this watch so it may stay there for a while...

ra-man333 Posted February 4, 2008 Report Posted February 4, 2008 Looks great with that strap. It is definitely eye catching.
SubFrog Posted February 4, 2008 Report Posted February 4, 2008 Beautiful watch. Very sleek. I'd like to see that with the logo only. I'll take one.
milsub5517 Posted February 4, 2008 Report Posted February 4, 2008 Old_skool does it have AR? Is crystal made of sapphire? Also, does it come serviced/waterproof tested/regulated etc like his other watches? I may be getting this one instead of 201/a...

Also, does it come serviced/waterproof tested/regulated etc like his other watches? I may be getting this one instead of 201/a... It is sapphire with AR coat. It's OK, though you know this AR coat is only so good. You have to send it out for double coat if you really want some good AR. Edit: I just learned that Davidsen sells his watches with WR30m. Now to me this means I can wash my hands or walk in the rain without worrying about small splashes but that I cannot take it under water at all.... I seriously doubt he services and regulates them at the price he sells. Those are services I believe you would need to get from a watchmaker. Personally, I don't see much use for servicing or regulating a new movement. I will wear it for a while and see if it is keeping good time. If not, I will have it worked on. (I mean sure, it's great if you can get this service included in a new watch for a reasonable price...) I don't plan to wear any of these in the water so I don't feel like paying to have them pressure tested. Edited February 8, 2008 by old skool
