Yes of course bud but please don't hold it to your ear and shake it. It cost €400 the last time you shook a watch in here.

Yeh but the catch was that I had to give you your own room.

Love this thread. Never saw it before.

Anyone have any idea for a baton hour hand that would fit Tudor’s new BB54? I thought the BB31’s minute hand might be short enough to fit as an hour hand on the BB54. It would also match the gold and lume.

Alternative would be a gold Mercedes’ handset?

I wish I could find a factory WG Meteorite GMT dial
If so Id buy a SS Pepsi and put it on.
I just don't like sports watches in precious metals myself but love that dial on a Pepsi.

A lot of nice pictures and great watches.

My 126711 CHNR with my BLNR jubilee bracelet. I never wear it like this as I believe the two-tone oyster bracelet 100% compliments the watch. However, I believe it’s a nice peek on how beautiful the 126711 CHNR would be if it was offered on a two-tone jubilee.

the bracelet from the 40 mm DJ fits your watch there's your two tone

There is no 40mm DJ but 41mm DJ and it was a 21mm bracelet vs 20mm on GMTs. Won’t fit.

Sorry the super jubilee on the 6 digit 36 datejust should do the trick its 20 mm I know the ss swaps over so I'd assume on the rg/ss

I’ve been imagining this for my 6 digit polar.

Aftermarket or paint mod?

I’ll have a review posted on my website soon.

This is how they should have come from the factory. I don't get the glossy thing on a tool watch -- sure, have it on all the dressy things if you must, but matte is so much better than the gloss.

I have emailed LAWW today about my 116710.

I really like this

[jimkar]

I don't know if I should put this here as it's a Tudor but I think it will be fine. Bezel insert swap at my bb 58 black with the one from the gold 58. I was trying to find out if someone else had done it but no luck. So here are some photos in case someone is interested in doing the same.

I think I said before while you were having this done - it's not personally my thing, but I can certainly appreciate that it's superb work. Excellent job.

Not mine, it was completed a few months ago. This was posted by david Sheehan on IG as just being completed. Thought it may be someone here on TRF.

Interesting...

Curious where you found that? I’m trying to find a set of Tudor hands (or rather a minute hand from the new 31mm BB range)

I ordered it from my tudor ad. I informed him what I wanted to do. He said he would order it but warned me that this is not actually allowed by rolex.

My 16600 that I purchased new in 2008 with the DLC performed in 2013.

I've worn this watch virtually every day since I bought it regardless of my activity and both the watch the finish have held up remarkable well.

Any coating will eventually wear on surfaces that are subjected to repeated contact, typically 'points and edges' and I knew this before having the DLC applied.

That said, this is an incredibly wear-resistant finish with these signs of wear developing very slowly over the past ten years, despite the constant use and taking some hits that I assumed would have broken it...does makes a rattling sound when a wiggle my wrist but doesn't seem to affect the function.
