freddy333 Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 I was thinking it was a modded MBW, but the dial threw me (it looked too good) until I got to the end & found out that there is a reason the dial looks so good. Excellent work & I cannot wait to see it decked out with the proper bracelet. (This is 1 of those times when I wish we still had the rating system) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefcook Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 wow! A real gem! The plexi subs with the glossy dial are one of my favorite rolex - will have to build one in future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitimany Posted October 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Thanks guys, Hope bracelets get here soon I was thinking it was a modded MBW, but the dial threw me (it looked too good) until I got to the end & found out that there is a reason the dial looks so good.

Stephane Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 wow! A real gem! The plexi subs with the glossy dial are one of my favorite rolex - will have to build one in future Now that you mention it, I agree. Between both worlds Very nice watch and thanks for taking the time to show it to us Cheers Stephane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star69 Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 that's one of these cool "spiderweb" dials - at least it will be one in the future - very nice ! but i would change the pearl in the insert. cheers, Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alligoat Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Very nice. It's amazing how long the 5513 lasted with the 1520 movement inside. But I agree with Frank, the correct all acrylic pearl in the bezel insert is a must. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarks for the Tudor hands & yes to the 1520, if you can afford it (figure $900-$1,200 & an additional $250+ for service/overhaul). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
