Gods own country! Yorkshire.
The thing is that all the tools to remove and refit an oyster + jubilee bracelet cost around $1,200:

I suppose any jeweller who has enough Rolex customers to make it worth investing in that kind of equipment will probably not look into reps. But you never know!

I’ve seen cheaper full sets on eBay direct from China where I imagine they are all made. Cousins in the U.K. are similar price to esslinger.

I never bother with time graph, time it’s been through the X-rays and thrown around in the post. I’ve not had a really bad watch and only one DOA

Blue dial looks fantastic from some of these QC's anyone received their blue dial yet for actual outside photos?
Cannot wait for the smooth bezel versions - and if I get too impatient I'll have to get one and have a gen bezel installed!

That is what I was going to do, but was talked out of it by my modder. He said the bezel looked fine.

I still may, as I prefer the look, but the smooth have been hard to find at a reasonable price.

Been waiting a week for puretime to email their paypal address so I can pay them. Finally gave up and emailed geektime and got a response in less than 5 minutes and was paid and ready for QC within 30 minutes. Ordered blue with jubilee, can't wait!

Just waiting for VSF to release their 36mm DJs. I cant seem to find a lot of gen 36DJ with white dial. Does Rolex offer that dial in the 126234?

It will be quite a whike for the dj36. Next week they going om vacation for at least 3 to 4 weeks. So i thibk realisticly maybe the dj36 will come out in 3 months or maybe a bit more.

Nice one! You are absolutely right: https://www.ebay.es/itm/Stainless-S...ation-Tool-for-Oyste-Jubili-Band/233723920020

It could be an interesting tool if you need plating of center links for the VSF, and also for people with small wrists that need to remove fixed links from bracelets (the old Rolex bracelets only have a few links with screws and some people have one fixed link removed, usually destroyed in the process).

Got some information from a friend in china woth a list of the models that are still available and out stock from the factory. There is a chance that tds still have stock of some of the models that are our of stock at factory. The blue dial can still be order and should be deliver before factory goes on vacation.

"Silver Noodles" - I love those names. If the Chinese Rep Factories were in charge of naming things, we´d probably be calling a Snake "Nope Rope", reminds me of this:

Is the brushed look on the caseback here (like on the back of the lugs, not the movement cover) actually how the gen looks?

As far as I can tell its supposed to be a mirror like finish like the front, not a textured brushed looking finish
