billywhiz Posted March 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 Take one Andrew 2005 1st Edition Noobmariner cases, 1 recent cheap $50 16810 red Sub to break up. Pop in the case and daa laah - for less than $100 all in. CG's ain't bad, mag font aint bad, dial sits well - hey pop the pearl - put through the coin box, coffee on the dial and thats pretty much a very quick half decent looking 1680 franken - all that would be needed is dome. yay. Peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 The red SUBMARINER font looks actually much nicer than on those MBW dials. Do you have a closeup photo of it? SELs + no lugholes on a vintage look a bit weird though... but then again when it's a $100 franken can you really complain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billywhiz Posted March 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 The other case I have ( came with 1680 ) has lugholes, a bit of chopping around would see this back in holed case pics are not very good but dial print close ups. - ~Actually when looking at this with the eye, they do look more solid - the red is very red and dial clean - the lume on the markers is absolute rubbish, looks like someones just dabbed it on, still $50 reppy, what do we expect, could always patina it.
