XRT Posted June 17, 2006 Report Posted June 17, 2006 45mm case (brushed finish) with custom bezel, plexiglass crystal, unitas movement, OEM butterscotch strap
qt11 Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 You need to keep your eyes out for his offers...they are not cheap because of the labor he puts into these watches and the custom made parts (or genuine) he uses. Thanks XRT, I certianly will, this is a fantastic piece . Where does WM post his offers ? Please could you PM me if its not suitable to divulge the info on the forum. Cheers Q
madasboot Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 Fabulous piece of work! And the crystal is amazing!
Watchmeister Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 XRT- Beautiful piece. If you get a chance could you snap a pic of the back. Have you had that piece for a while? I haven't seen that one in probably 8-9 months. Bezel is fantastic. At some point I will beg him to do it again as it is one of my favorites. Must confess I have one or two on the way. Nice to see he is back. Still working on that Rolex-Cortebert movement though. Hope springs eternal.
sevomd Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 Thanks XRT, I certianly will, this is a fantastic piece . Where does WM post his offers ? Please could you PM me if its not suitable to divulge the info on the forum. Cheers Q
Watchmeister Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 sevomd- Only if he is offering more than one.
XRT Posted June 18, 2006 Author Report Posted June 18, 2006 gt11- looks like sevomd (who owns an amainzing WM piece of his own) beat me to it but yes he is selling a similar one on TRC and he also has a very expensive one on WT and TRC. Kruzer00- Mine does not have a display back (unlike the own for sale on TRC). Mine is a solid back with a brushed finish. At one point he was selling just the back piece for project watches. (update...exWM sold that $3000 47mm piece today)
XRT Posted June 18, 2006 Author Report Posted June 18, 2006 Here are some older pics I posted before of the same watch:
Watchmeister Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 XRT- WM must still have extra pieces as he accidentally sent me the 47mm with a display back. I had asked for solid caseback since Sevomd got the only one with vintage movement worthy of displaying (lucky guy, actually it ain't luck ). Mine has the basic bridge Unitas movement. Being the gentleman he is, WM is of course sending me the solid back as well. I am on the prowl for the Rolex/cortebert movement and if I can find it I will leave the display back on. Otherwise I am swapping it for the solid caseback.
XRT Posted June 18, 2006 Author Report Posted June 18, 2006 Kruzer00- I hope you find that movement at a good price...I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. Sounds like the prices of them are going up since people are starting to buy them for project watches.
Watchmeister Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 I know where it is. And he has more than one. I just have to get him to be willing to part with it.
TK471 Posted June 16, 2007 Report Posted June 16, 2007 She's coming home to a new owner. I can't wait!
rolli Posted June 16, 2007 Report Posted June 16, 2007 She's coming home to a new owner. I can't wait! Congrats! it's a pretty nice watch, rolli
