You make me so jealous eventhough I have the same watch lol!

Awesome builds!!

So what are we thinking about the Sea Dweller's 50th Anniversary, Basel World release?

They have to do something to the SD, maybe an SD Hulk? New Dials?

I know the rumours are a platinum version which would be a little disappointing as I'm not that much of a baller and can't afford a platinum Rolex.

The SD should stay as a true tool watch without precious metals. I hope they bring some vintage flair back to the SD such as some red accents on the dial and second hand.

Yeah I agree, leave the precious metals to the Daytonas and Day Dates etc.

Not long to wait now.

Hey guys

I'm having a bitch of a time with my tc sd bracelet, in that there is one particular screw I just can't budge. This screw is the one I need to remove to get the clasp to sit in the middle of my wrist. When I first received the bracelet I soaked it in mineral oil and all the screws were fine but one. I've soaked it again and yet the screw won't budge. I admit my screw drivers are shit, I've ordered swiss ones but they won't be here for a bit. Any ideas on how to get that screw moving without any damage?

thanks in advance

Try to heat the bracelet a little bit, this most of the time worked for me when everything else didn't. Start with a hairdryer first

My modder is the genius that had build this:

https://forum.replica-watch.info/th...lt-by-magic-modder-gen-dial-gen-hands.191082/

On mine he has performed:

-Reworked case
-Reworked CG's like GEN
-Bezel click like GEN
-Worked on bezel teeth
-TC V3 hand set
-H4 mod (to accept TC hands)
-BP stock movement serviced
-replaced some parts with ETA swiss parts
-TC crown/tube
-TC SD bracelet
-Genuine superluminova bezel
-stock DWO (well centered)
-stock BP dial (naked eye on QC to get onw without "moon craters" he he he)
-remove excess of lume from "10" o'clock index of the dial
-revmove dent on reahut with precision numerical machine
-wash case with ultrasonic machine
-clean crystal


And i think that's all

haha I was only kidding!

anyway. I tried the hairdryer. I also found a better screwdriver. I'm not sure which played the biggest influence.....but I got it!

 

[Maron]

Okay. Out of curiosity, what is the purpose of the link in the bracelet which the middle part can slide back and forth between the outside parts? In comparison to the links which have a fixed center

does that make sense or do i need to post photos?

With all this talk of the Yuki being the same as the jf movement.

Will we be able to get a Yuki in our BP SD's? If not what do i need?

Mine arrived DOA but I have TC parts on route ( which are late) then looking to send to ado.

you can put a yuki in it. But it was mentioned that some of the newer cases aren't accepting the yuki as a drop in with no mods, this is only what was metnion by mhall. you are best to ask ado. You'll need gen hands though to fit your yuki

Are there any good gen spec hands? 200 usd for a handset seems a bit steep..
