Great stuff D.

Just for the record my DRSD is on my wrist (still) and never misses a beat. All members who do not own a 1665 should sell their grandmothers immediately to purchase a decent one with all the right mods. After all how long is your grandmother going to last? A decent 1665 will last a lifetime and you can't get better value than that :thumbsupsmileyanim:

its beautiful. Do you know where I can get a flat top 3 date disc for ETAs. I have emailed Eurotimez and helena has informed me that they have run out of flat top 3s for the moment and dont think that they will be making any more.

when you talk about varnish on the dial do you mean the matte spray to reduce the shine?

no,there is no shine on the Dial it's matte.

Varnish gives a nice structure ,like on a old Dial

I will post a macro shot of the structure that u can see what I mean.

Thanks Freddy,

yours look exactly like mine btw Great SD ;)

@ Ciborgman

I had a suppiler in the past for Rolex Parts

When you look at the Insert it has the bold numbers on it and this

is really rare.

For the HE Valve it's an easy mod just pop the Valve in with a hammer.
