Got my BP Serti Bluesy today. Don't have a screwdriver set to adjust the bracelet currently but here's a pic with a strong Friday evening beer 
Hi guys! I need some expert advice. I would like to build a serti dial 16613, I have the dial but I need the watch. I was wondering if BP is the best factory for the 16613 or if there are better factories out there. Another question I have is that from the pictures I have seen of your 16613's there are no rolex markers (written rolex) around the dial edge (as it should be) but when looking at the pictures from TD Hontwatch, there are the rolex markers written all around the dial edge as it is in the moderns subs. How is that possible? Thank you in advance guys!

There is rep models without the “ROLEXROLEXROLEX” text (RRR or engraved rehaut ) mainly TCs and JFs and startime cases , the new 16610s from ARF doesn’t have the RRR
..Anyway most of the modders can “erase it”
If you got a gen Serti dial, I will go for a nice build using one of those cases and real gold parts ( bezel bracelet and crown)
I do not remember if BPs have changed their specs but not a good base to start with if you are putting in gen parts. I do not know about the new 3135 cases.
QueTip guide is the one to follow on a 16613 build in my opinion. https://forum.replica-watch.info/for...lds-frankening

Hello guys, from what I have been able to read thanks to C Master , the best base watches to mod/franken ar WM9, MBW, and TC. I also have learnt that WM9 are ultra rare to get, and as far as I am concerned none of these 3 factories produce the 16613 anymore. Before pulling the trigger on a BP, I just wanted to make a quick call to all of you guys! If anyone has a MBW or TC collecting dust please feel free to PM me! and once again thank you very much!
Yes friend you read that right. unfortunately I can't help you, but I can tell you that before taking a BP you could take a JF or an ARF that are easily found by all TD.

WM9 and MBW are almost impossible to find
If you go for a TC- probably you will get a SS model- bear in mind that they come with ETA movement not a clone movement, so you will need to modify the dial to install it. That’s why I will go for a JF or ARF as a base watch.
And also you will need all the gold parts to swap the 16610 into a 16613- which are the most expensive part of this builds

I would also consider a ST 3135 case they are not without fault however they are completely Gen spec. Here is my build all ST and Gen

Wow, this look amazing! Are ST still on sale via TD? Or no longer in production as TC or WM9? Thanks a lot
