The font is actually pretty damn good,,,,, although I can't take credit for it,,, the dwo was already on it..... it is a tad left justified but other then that looks good......all in all this watch turned out really nice,,,, and compared to what it was,,, lol I'd say it's a keeper now.....

This guy must be one of those soldier of fortune types,,,,, jeeez! Live bro,,,,, it's ok to climb mountains while working under the hood of an old jeep ,,,,,,but take your submariner off first guy! :hehehe:

Lets just say!,,,,,,Mitch Likes you a lot ,,,,,,and wanted to replace the clasp for you!
This watch was a train wreak ,,,,,,,And took a lot of work to fix!!

Mitch done a awesome job on this watch!,,,,,,,,And threw in a lot of new parts IN for FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Plus i spent hours on this bracelet,,,,,,,And the font is FINE ON THE DWO!!!

You are a very lucky man!!,,,,,, A watch moder would have charged you a couple of hundred dollars at the least for all these new parts plus labor,,,,,,,Consider your self lucky !,,,,You have friends like use ,,,,,To help you!:hehehe:

:cheers:

This is why the DWO was changed!


The DWO that looks like a wagon wheel,,,,Came off the 21j,,The one that came off your watch!!,,,,,The other is what fit's on the 2836-2,,,,,,Which IMO,,,,Looks better!
I sure Mitch can change it!! But there's a lot of work that go;s into changing the DWO,,,,,Mitch could put a BK DWO in it,,,,,But your looking at more money & time!
The DWO thats in it now looks good!!! But if you want to change the one that is in it,,,,,for a BK one,,,,,Your looking at more money for that!!!

No not a Xpert,but,,Its common knowledge that the TC & BK DWO are more Gen like,,,,Than the ones that are in the BP Sub c,,,,,If i paid to change the movement in this watch i would change the DWO,,For a BK OR TC DWO,,, but thats just me!

This job isnt easy and takes a lot of time,,,,and you could mess up a DWO if not careful....
Theres no way i tackle this job!!!,,,,Its HELL trying to change these DWO
