you have the black date wheel, I like that
Wish I could say that eddie had a hidden supply of these, but had to search far and wide for used and came in the mail yesterday. One of my favorite movements in a watch. Merry Christmas to me...
...
always been one of my favorite hand sets.
I am severely tempted, anyone have a wrist shot and comments on how it wears?
I have one, sold it and have missed it since
from what I have calculated the best, and cheapest, method is to watch the various watch sales boards and buy one from someone who already did it and found the finding and building was the best part....
Create a web page pretending to sell modified rolex watches, then buy cheap knockoff rolex fakes and "modify" them with $2 worth of dial and then sell them for a couple of hundred more than he paid.
is that a highland or a lowland gorilla arm?
looks like that lume dot in the bezel may be different as well, seems taller in the subject watch compared to the other pictures
that is what I want to do, but without a date window. I added up the cost and it looks like about $2,000 (US) give or take, and strangely enough the case is cheaper on your side of the pond even with...
very nice watch, and Westcoasttime is great to deal with. On a bracelet it is really a great piece
Odd how I am torn between two watches of such different design and purpose. I had long wanted a IWC mark style watch, and finally settled on this Mark XII, in part because of the wonderful movement...
I've never heard of Duward but I have heard of Aquastar so I picked this up, looks to be the original bracelet - and a compressor case. Looks like a cool vintage dive watch.. now the wait for...
I heard that but don't like rubber straps - my average run of the mill end pieces fit perfect, well once they were cut to 18mm that is
my reputation precedes me, come on I've only had it a day - though I do like the prs-82....
i got it from Chris hooper at chonometer.net for $485 us. The lump is green tritium with orange at 12. It looks a bit tall for the size when i got it, but i did not notice it when on my wrist.
it is 43mm from tip to tip
it seemed small at first, being so used to the bigger one. Got it from Chris Hooper and it came on a vanilla smelling rubber strap. I had a new bracelet with 19mm end links, so a few minutes with a...
I have one coming in the mail Monday, I'll post pictures

will probably be a 14060, the simple look is great. I am also drawn to a rolex precision.
came with box and papers, been spot on time wise and a great size for my small wrists

I like the look of the explorer 2, but I tend to use the bezel a bit. I found a nice 1016 for about $5,800 (US), then I think for the same amount of money I could get a seiko marinemaster and a...
for me it is the "bulk" of the sea dweller, if I do not ratchet the bracelet to the point of almost too tight the watch seems to float a bit on my girl scout sized wrist and bug the cr@p out of me.
...
they have been growing on my lately - narrowed it down to 4 models: Explorer II, 14060 no date sub, explorer or 1016 explorer. I want some thing that I can just wear, so the 1016 might not be a good...
one of my favorite watches, but telling the time on it always drives me crazy.
