yellomen Posted July 31, 2008 Report Posted July 31, 2008 If that's a gen than i could use the case of a tudor no date submariner... i think i can get hold of one from MBW. And i still have a gen 5513 glossy dial... Hmmmmm... sounds interesting By the way Drik... awesome work!! That dial is so incredibly cool

Stephane Posted July 31, 2008 Report Posted July 31, 2008 I love pipelines Fantastic job Tribal. Once again. The 5513 is something very special for sure.
freddy333 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Posted July 31, 2008 Happy to see you are keeping busy. Great work, as usual, Tribal.
vlydog Posted July 31, 2008 Report Posted July 31, 2008 Great job Tribal. I always look forward to viewing your work. Can you tell me where the dial came from? Thanks.
Tribal Posted July 31, 2008 Author Report Posted July 31, 2008 Great job Tribal. I always look forward to viewing your work. Can you tell me where the dial came from? Thanks. Comes from Jojo I think its a MBW/MBK Gilt Dial

dieselpower Posted July 31, 2008 Report Posted July 31, 2008 Fantastic work, great watch, great guy. Well done Dirk!
lazarini Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 Gents im glad to inform you that i have just received a few pics of my finalized 5513 from master T . All i can say is ... here is a little macro teaser of the gen. bezel insert with tritium pearl... more to be revealed soon... Laz
alt.watch.obsessive Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 Nice! Have you tried dremmeling out the midpoint of the CG's so they look more round when viewed from the side? I did this on an SSD and it really helped. To get it to look more like this...
lazarini Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 The CGs were imho perfected by previous owner Justasgood so tribal and me decided to leave them as they were we did change the crown do, install a tropic 19, new mvt holder, change and vitagize the dial, lume the hands and markers gen bezel insert with tritium pearl etc ... more pics to come when i meet T end of next week and pickup this piece personally form da man Laz
freddy333 Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 ... more pics to come when i meet T end of next week and pickup this piece personally form da man Laz Laz - That will be a trip well worth making. Excellent work.
Star69 Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 cool - love the result ! cant wait to see more pics .... inspired me 2 my new project - Viet Cong Tudor sadly i cant find my cam at the moment to post a clear pic cheers, Frank
Tribal Posted September 3, 2008 Author Report Posted September 3, 2008 Laz - That will be a trip well worth making. Excellent work. Thanks mate, that will be a mini GTG in Holland so I have also a trip
freddy333 Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 inspired me 2 my new project - Viet Cong Tudor sadly i cant find my cam at the moment to post a clear pic Too bad about the cam, that is the only Tudor I like & would love to see more of it. Did you build it or is it 1 of Phong's?
Star69 Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 Too bad about the cam, that is the only Tudor I like & would love to see more of it. Did you build it or is it 1 of Phong's? i think its an Vietnam case - has the nice engravings - high crown position - gen like construction and slow beat, non hacking ETA like the gen. and the typical lug-hole position ala Phong. its still in the work - the only flaw that i could spot in real life is the dial printing - has SWISS T<25 instead of T SWISS T ... maybe i try to repaint it. got it real cheap - its a nice project - so far gen parts fit without problems .
