I found this the other day, doing some random surfing at ebay. The dial is nice enough, but the case, what the heck? It's hands down the ugliest thing I've ever seen. I only saw it on the phone, and...
What the f..is the point with this tread? Yes, the fakes are getting better, but we all know that!
The pinion is the same. So either the tube is loose (enlarged), the hand is bent or the pinion is bent.
Here, fixed it for you:

I'd like to know that as well. Nice straps but no way I'm paying €150 for a nato.
Not sure if you have the oscillator module mounted or not. But whatever you do, do NOT ever, ever touch the seconds hand with the oscillator module in place. You will destroy the index wheel if you...
A hummer on a Friday, as always. Have a great weekend.

Lots of nice watches here. Picked up this 14k Pie pan for just 850£, pretty happy about that.

Got this little thing a couple of days ago. Have a great weekend!

Brilliant! Looking forward to the continuation.
Second hands are tricky. You need to be sure it's on the pinion before you press it carefully down. I use pegwood with a small piece of Rodoco at the end to position the hand.
I may have...
Aren't the two exactly the same, except for the presentation box that comes with the latter version?
Go for the classic hesalite version, looks better in my opinion. But then you won't get a...
Here's mine. Hamilton 917 movement. Case, dial and hands from Roland Kemmner.

I like the name. Ægir is old Norse for 'sea' and also the god of the seas in Norse mythology.
Nice lume. The new Speedmaster mark II?
Not sure if it was available as a complete watch. It's a custom case/dial/hands made by Roland Kemmner for a Hamilton pocket watch movement. Got the movement off eBay and the rest from Roland.

Hamilton 917 in a Kemner case. Have a great weekend!

Been using it for years, very happy. I tried Plex recently, but it didn't impress me. More closed.
Just did the same mod, but with the silver hands:

You can get the hands from Otto Frei.

I like the new X33

If you look at the prices at Otto Frei, the dial (064WK3052031) is $340, hands $95 or so and the case $858. Plus the movement. That's the hardest part as they hardly never come up for sale alone....
I've wanted a panda for a long time. I was looking for an Autavia, but I don't think I'm my wallet is ready for a vintage Heuer, yet. Then I saw the Speedmaster Mitsukoshi. It was originally a...

Blue Omega replacement dial and aftermarket ETA2824 hands.
Funny weather. While you have the wettest January for a long time, we had the dryest January for more than 100 years here in Norway. Several placed had 0mm. We haven't seen snow since mid December,...
