Thanks! - I really preferred a no-lume set, and by good fortune this was the first one I found.

Contact watchpartdoc on Instagram. Hes in his 80s and is an old watch maker. That guy has so many vintage Rolex parts, its crazy!
Hes super nice. I needed some hands on a vintage piece I was working on and he mailed me a whole tin of about 40 hands, told me to pick out 2 and send back the rest with my payment.
A true old school way of doing business but I really appreciated it.

You are So right about Warren, I just bought a date just dial and a new old stock crystal. He was a pleasure to do business with so patient and I can't say enough about him. But he's already been contacted about what I'm looking for and doesn't have one but is on the lookout. I would recommend him to anybody.

I bought my bracelet from a dealer in hk. It is stretchy but old gold does look real warm compared to the new yellow gold

Ahh must have missed it. I should have turned notifications on for this post.

Alas, after going through this post again... I think I'm going to keep the 1803 I have on strap. AND hunt for a WG 1803 haha, they look so damn good.
