So, based on the pic at the top of this thread, it seems like this is either a Limited Edition or a combination initial Limited Edition plus a later general edition.
Long, long ago, on forum...
The 2893-2 movement has the non-Rolex style adjustment. ETA produces a Rolex style movement (as used in the Omega Seamaster GMT) but it's not available to anyone else.....[/quote]
Thanks, but I...
Before I get too excited about this, do these movements have the independently adjustable (in 1 hour jumps) 12hr (main hour) hand (ala Rolex GMT II, Omega GMT, etc.) or the independently set 24 hr...
C'mon Paul -- We're all pulling for you!
Sorry to disagree, but that's just not true, with respect to T/T, anyway, however much we may want it to be. (Been there, done that, many,many times, and have the t-shirt!)
Unless the...
Just buy a Mk XVI, mate!
Damn that's nice, Dave! We really seem to share the same taste! 8)

You learn something new every day !
For example, until today I had no idea that Frankenstein's monster even WORE a watch, much less where he might have sourced it ... :shock: :? :roll:
The tubes I used in the photos above are 22mm wide, with a 2mm outside diameter.[/quote]
Many thanks, Chris! Your photos are great, too!
Just so I don't go and make an unnecessary purchase, could someone provide some guidance as to exactly which Panerai lug tubes are needed here? Will just any tubes that are supposed to fit 26mm lugs...
36mm for ladies; 38mm is too big.
I'm getting REALLY bored of the ETA2824 auto; please find an alternative for this and other watches. (That's why I jumped on the PRS-50LE. Cool NOS movement. ...
Can't stand orange in a strap. :(
I hope these are going to be a good deal longer than the current Speedbird straps, which are HOPELESLY short... :roll:
OK -- first supplier to furnish Rhino / Zulu straps with high quality stainless steel Nato-style hardware, with proper "watch-gap" lengths to accommodate larger modern watches, and to include long...
:shock: :cry: :( :D
Tie watch, i no give a sh*t! :D
Eddie the Big Wrist Club (BWC) hereby publicly thanks you for including the XL strap option for the Precista Italian LE's. You are truly a God of customer service! 8) :wink:
Dude, I SERIOUSLY want some of whatever you're on... :shock: :? 8) :twisted: :D :wink:
Have I missed something? Has there been a breakthrough on obtaining the modified movmements for the SB3-UTC and the Dreadnought GMT ???

Doesn't James Dowling have a PVD'ed Rolex sub (5513?)
The article is just a fluff P.R. piece, to be sure. Interesting how it contains absolutely no mention of Kobold's federal felony conviction in the United States (lying to a U.S. federal official...

Hey, at least it's domed! :)

I really like this version of the dial -- keep the aged lume look (hey, if Ken Setser and Jack Alexyon can lume-match hands and dial with an aged look and still get plenty of glow, then we should be...
Count me in, Eddie! Not sure if Dave E is committed to number 16 or not. If not, please put me down for that one. Otherwise, will take what's available, preferably 18, 28 0r 38. How soon will it...
