The pics are rubbish. I would ask for more, but if you believe what the seller says you could have a steal.

I would have this if I had the cash. Seeing as I don't and I doubt anybody here wants to buy it as a gift for me I thought I would share the link.

Pilworx got the gen to fit his so it can be done.

Might put a bid in and just deal with it. Stick it on the credit card.

Congratulations! I'm in your shoes, too! Also a steal without the matching BP GMT Master II. Tell me, where you get the watch then! :)

:cheers:

Hey Dukes!

Congrats on the bezel! Thats a good price you got there…

I have the gen bezel and BP GMT for a little over a month now and I'm just uncertain and not confident to do the swap. I went to a couple of watch smiths but they too are worried the insert might break.

Can you take photos when you're doing yours please? And a step by step notes would be good too. Much appreciated, dukes.

Arrived today, the quality of each of the parts is amazing, i thought the ceramic bezels on our subs were good, but this is way way better.

I'm about to build another GMTc this time SS vs my last TT GMTc. Great watches.

Oh by build I mean I buy all the gen parts and pay someone to assembly, haha.

Do it! Ha. Just be forewarned it'll run you north of 1k if you get some fair pricing on the gen parts.

What would you do besides doing the bezel? I was thinking about getting the crown but i really cannot see the difference (unless some one points them out to me) between the rep and the gen…

Be kind please. Noobie still! Ha!!

Congrats. It was such a good deal I wanted it just didn't have the cash. Otherwise I would have had it before they relisted lol.

Had to make sure someone on RWI got it.

Post pics when it's done.

I'd love to see some close up pictures of a gen and a rep insert side by side.

That was a bargain if indeed a genuine bezel, and insert. Congrats!

Ok, well here are some photo's. I really think it's gen, it's so much better than the ceramic submariner replica bezels and inserts, but i'd appreciate any other views.

Trying to show the depth of the engraving on this one.

I had actually order a ceramic GMT Master II before i saw this, unfortunately it's the noob version. So if anyone has a BP with the green GMT hand i'd be very interested in buying it.
