What an amazing piece there mate! Please enlighten me but I never knew that 16613 comes with that open 9 DW? It makes it look even better IMHO


"Tienes que correr riesgos, en esta vida"

You are correct The 16613 did not have the open 6 an 9 but the 16803 did :) Sourcing the gen date disk for the 3135 was a bit of a task but I got it. :) The 16803 housed a 3035 which winds and sets the date the opposite way. I have a 3035 date disk only because they are beautiful but no use with my yuki 3135.

I can also tell you rep gold is nice but you cannot rep the shine and feel of real gold. A camera will always struggle to pick up the difference

Thank you but this is not a gen!! It’s a V7 with V6s bracelet, gen dial, DW, hands and movement now.. insert is done by Sponge some months ago, I am about to go gen and pay like $10,5K and have second thoughts but cannot decide.. I feel nice about this frankened Hulk now plus it carries some history now after so many visits to my watch smith..


I have a genuine Batman so I can settle with a rep Hulk... trying to convince myself now

I have to say your hulk is a thing of beauty and perfection. It would be a difficult decision to go gen when you have such a perfect piece.

Hi, Gang! Time for Tuesday's selection: this nice looking OMEGA SeaMaster chronograph with blue face and ceramic bezel I picked up a while ago from an amazing member. Nice & heavy, great details on the dial, it's one of several recent purchases I love to wear. (old pics). dave:

Thank you bro, indeed there is no need after having installed a gen movement in my Hulk, maybe after 1-2 years we see some good dials and inserts from the Chinese factories so puzzle would be complete then.. thanks for keeping me sane lolol!!

3 weeks and we are out of here! Our first own house, going to see it today :)


Congrats, just remember it is stressful to move but when the place is your own it is well worth it.
