Looks very nice! I like the outlines of the case very much.

Is it too late to ask for the luminous material to be yellow/ivory or white instead of green?

:bounce: :bounce: :D

22mm lug width is fine. 34mm dress oyster date models had a lug width of 19mm. This Seiko model of 38.5-39mm diameter has lug width of 22mm. works very nicely....

I would prefer an acrylic crystal please :)
both for reasons of price and aesthetics.
btw, is it possible to have the numerals in yellow vintage colored lume instead of the regular green?

I would like 20mm lug width best. Is it possible to build a watch around that requirement? :)
I think 39mm would be a good size. Anything smaller would be too small, and larger, might look too...

Do you by any chance know if the Valijoux 7750 version is larger than the Lemania? it's listed as 39.5mm. Wasn't the Lemania 38.5mm?

Thanks.

that's how the movement is. it takes some modification to move the minute counter to 3 o clock, which adds some expense probably. Tutima and Hanhart do it too for their similar models.

it's an excellent model and a really good deal usually if you buy it used. Many people prefer larger models these days. So you get an excellent ETA 2892 and a great bracelet. it's really quite...

smart of you to check out the lugs and notice the spring bars sticking out. you're right that it's best to look for a less abused case. but what's the point of pointing it out to a salesperson...

the MK XV has 19mm lug width, so I am pretty sure the XII has 18mm.
the curved end bands look nice, but I have some reservations as to their security relative to the regular straight...

The main thing I would ask for in a re-issued PRS-14 is a thinner case. lovely watch but it was just much too top heavy for me.
A wider case to accomodate a larger dial and hands would be nice...

excellent comparison . they both look very good I must say.
Does anyone know if it would be possible to put the Yao dial from the Quad 10 into the Speedbird III case? I think that would look...

I think B & R makes really good stuff. the early models that Sinn made for them were not as well finished as the later models that they made themselves. comparing one of the Vintage series models...

How about something like a Breitling Aerospace with that movement? that would be awesome :bounce:

hands look to have been repainted at some point and the lume on dial is pretty shot, water damaged maybe? I know some people like that "original" look but to me it looks trashed. case looks good...

ooh, tough one. what type of bracelet would it be? would the endlink be alll solid attaching to the first link like on Omega Seamaster Pro or would the first link have the spring bar pass through...

that's great news. PRS-3 was a great watch but the dial was pretty small. I think this was in large part due to the wide spacer between the edge of the dial and the edge of crystal. in any case a...

Good looking model. A little too chunky maybe compared to the actual oyster case. surprised and pleased that the diameter is staying at a reasonable range. I was sure it would be a 44mm watch like...

great looking dials proposed but I think the original case used has become too small for it. something in the 40-42mm diameter would be best now.

I think the dealer is being a bit disingenuous declaring it as all original. sure the parts may be all Tudor/Rolex, but the watch was not originally sold like that. the dial and hands are...

I am sorry but I don't think there can be such a thing as a "too long minute hand". Minute hand should stretch out as long as possible to the very edge of the dial IMHO. This one looks pretty...

there was also a grey dial anniversary edition model that had the brushed case like the copper one. I also saw photos of a special edition for a German jewelry store that had a brown dial with white...

I sent 2 different Sinn 656 models to Sinn over the years with failed crowns. Well, one was completely stripped and one was about a half-turn there. They were both early models with threads on the...

damn, I really liked Wayfaerer :x

I agree with those calculations. I think it's a great idea.
