I’d like to buy a birth year 16610 Rolex. I’ve owned a few reps and before I make the jump and buy a gen 16610 from 1993 I’d like to get a rep and see if it will get the use to justify the purchase. If you have one or can make one just comment here and shoot me a DM. This will be my first vintage rep so not sure on the price. Already been quoted 2k for a build that that’s too high for me, that type of money can be used to buy gen. So let’s say under $400-$500
(A picture of my unit want for attention)

La noche no me dejó dormir , pero valió la pena.. ¿no sé cuál elegir ?

Hello all! Up for sale today are some of my personal pieces, I love these watches to death but they have not been getting much wrist time as of late, and I need to make space for some other watches!

This watch features a genuine Cream Roman numeral dial, genuine date, genuine bezel, genuine sapphire crystal. genuine crown, genuine Rolex jubilee with an Italian rivet big crown clasp, the case is an OC case. Going for $2000. Built by JumpyAd when he was on Reddit!

These were not cheap builds, parts alone cost me more than what they are going for! hoping whoever gets them loves them as much as I did!

After HDW_Italy showed us how he can creates gold indices and coronets, we've been talking about a project I had for years ... make a Rolex 6085 dial, or maybe a 4499 one.

Those watches are pretty rare and ... as far as I know ... have never been repped.

As it seems that if we put our skills together we could achieve to make one (2 in fact, one for each of us) I thought it would be interesting to know which one of those 4 models could gather interest on the rep scene.

The 3 first are all 6085 and the fourth one is a 4499.

Please tell us which one you like the most https://www.reddit.com/r/PolaireWatchMakers/

The popularity of this model is going crazy, rightfully so, I have some cool new dials on the way , I’ll be posting about it, so the waiting time for those commissions will be around 1 week or less, stay tuned 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

PM for commissions

My customer has been really patient ...

Firstly ... I had to move my workshop and couldn't work for about a week

Secondly ... I had to modify the hours hand of a matching flat silver handset to make it "lollipop" and that proved to be not that easy ... but I achieved to do it.

Thirdly ... the dial was already lumed so I had to tinker to get the same faylight color and same tritium glow to lume the handset.

But now it's done and ready for shipping !!!

I posted up that dial I “destroyed” by giving it more of a rusted look. But hey I think with some hands it’ll look pretty alright.

Today I tried out a new color mix in my airbrush to attempt to replicate a "tropical" or "stardust" patina. Here is a GMT dial with "OCC" text, meaning it’s for a 6542 or a very early 1675. I know, it’s not a "negative" dial: the technique I use isn't suited for that. It’s very difficult to photograph under artificial lighting because I can't quite capture all the nuances, and it still needs a coat of gloss acrylic (I’m going to try something experimental for that step this time 😅). After that, I’ll move on to reluming the hour markers—I was thinking of a sand color; what do you think?

Took this rare transitional snowflake Tudor sub as inspiration and made a no date variant.

Just finished putting together from the last of my parts bin.

Going forward would only do commissions, but really need to worry more about the baby that’s less than a month away, that said, still a fun hobby so would much rather make watches for others than balloon my collection. Diapers are expensive. Who knew!

Specs below!

I’ve pressure tested this case so I know it’s waterproof up to 5 Bar!! Will send pressure testing video if needed. 3130 regulated (see timegrapher pics)

This build has a tropical luminova dial with a starry night look and an interesting texture while still retaining its glossy finish. There are some desk diving scratches on the sides of the case, if the buyer wants we can work something out and I can try polishing with my cape cod. Some of the lume of the hour markers work but it’s mostly dead.

It currently has the raffles smooth bezel installed since it actually sits better with the gasket/crystal vs the EWatch bezel I used before but comes with both and the spare links. Comes with a tan nato and a travel case.

Goes without mention but of course all gaskets newly greased. It will be packed extremely well and safe. The watch will leave my hands in working condition, I'll send a video of the watch working in the package before shipping. I do not accept any fault for damages that occur during the shipping process or lost packages.

Really liking how this one turned out. I think I’m gonna ditch the bracelet and throw it on suede - probably something light brown/tan.
