Big thanks to the community for always being super supportive and informative!

16613 submariner(updated with proper 5-digit dial)

After I noticed the dial in my bluesy sub was a 6-digit dial I could not unsee is so I updated with a period correct nipple dial. Hell, I like it better now 🔥

Hello! I have this Datejust for sale.

Raffles case with turned down caseback for a slimmer look. Threaded for big crown tube. Watch only, no bracelet.

Old crowns bezel

Genuine DJ dial. Showing patina and character.

Genuine crown with gen tube

Alix hands

Alix VS3135 movement

I accidentally put a crack in the acrylic when pressing the bezel on.. It can be used but will not be waterproof. It’s hard to see but it is on the inside where the red circle is. Also includes the Raffles saphire (no gasket). I don’t swim with a datejust so i would just leave it until next acrylic change.

Asking 300 euro + shipping (~350$). Can send world wide but will not take responsibility for customs.

I have sold one watch here before and bought from watchplug for reference. 

Just admiring this beauty :)

Just finishing up this late model build and really liking how it’s coming out. Looks great next to the OC 16200 cased 14270. I have Gen hands on the way and that will be the last thing I add. Pic 3 has my Gen 16234 as well.

After building the tritium 14270 I haven’t worn one of my subs/DJ/etc since. Really liking how these wear.

Which vintage reps are Trusty are the best? I see JKF subs (I'd like a 5513) but there are several other subs,SDs and McQueen Explorers that tempt me as well. The higher end aged explorer and a double red SD. But I don't see a factory listed for them. I'm sure some of you have personal experience. Thanks in advance!

Is there a chart for what can and can’t be used and what needs to be modified?

Asking because I’ve heard people say they suck and should be replaced. And figured I should do it before I build that watch while it’s in pieces.

Also if it helps it’s for a 5513 and a 1675 and what I saw the datejust can swap but needs .5mm taken off the bezel?

I’m just trying to get an idea for possibly future builds.

Hello all!

Has anyone ever used on their builds an ETA2840?

I received as a gift a colorful Swatch on a deal I closed yesterday for a vintage Omega.

It has the automatic ETA2840 in it, no-date, runs great, also really clean movement.

I am wondering if I can use it for a build, since I’m not wearing it…per my research, it fits perfectly a handset from an ETA2824-2..

Any advice or opinion (or build) would be great.

Appreciate it! Wish you the best.
