My god the humor in this forum is amazing.

Finally, I think I have a place to hang my hat.

Well, notwithstanding the perceived risque connotations

, fantastic photograph as usual, Jocke. That Roman DJ is superb!!!

SPACE-DWELLER · 5 February 2008, 06:23 AM

You can see that the SD is blushing! Its indices have turned the same colour as the dial of the Lady DJ!

Oh oh! How will this end?!

It would be so easy for me to take this down a road it probably shouldn't go. Maybe I should just refrain.

Today it´s bright white again.

As some of you know I have a custom Sea Dweller.
It´s a early sapphire model with ref 16660 who is
made in 1980.

What is custom with it?

I have polished the lugs and the middlelinks at the
bracelet and it looks like this.

Now I feel it´s time to go back to basic with it.

Here I have brushed it back to orginal finish and
it will looks like this.

Now it looks like it was from the start. No it
dosen´t.

Why???????

When this model was released so have it a matte
dial without WG trim around the index´s. That was
only the first years and this one from 1980 should
have a matte dial and don´t the replacement dial
that are at the watch at the moment.

Ok, where did I get one?

Not from Rolex, they haven´t made that dial for
years. Rolex will put the same dial at the watch
like I already have.

I have hunt this rare dial for a couple of years
and I only found the 1665 dial and it dosen´t fits.
That dial even says 2000ft/610m and the rare dial
for the sapphire model will says 4000ft/1220m.

A few weeks ago I got a mail from a friend who name
is Vadim and he pointed out for me where I could
find one for sale. So I play in the background and
just put a bid on it the last minute and the deal
was closed. A few days later the FedEx guy deliver
it to me and I was real excited when I pack it up.
The seller stated it was in mint condition and have
just a little yellowing index´s, just like it should.
And yes it´s in mint condition. So now I have to pack
my best friends down, the SD and the CoolPix.

Then I have to run down to the watchmaker in the hot
dog bar and tell him to just drop this hot dog´s
and come with me, I have some urgent work for you.

Here we can follow the work when my Sea Dweller got
the final touch.

Out with the movement and pull off the dial.

The "new" dial is on and now he is looking for
when the date change.

And the final results.

Then 6 months later I just run into a mint dial with
nice white markers and even correct hands too.

So I have to visit the watchmaker again and now
the watch looks like this.

It works in the water too.

Rise up and shine

Master has a different meaning to JJ. It's usually followed by the stuff you put on a fish hook

OK, I guess I'm forced to break out my super duper strong fishing line made from 100% sheep wool. If this doesn't get JJ to bite, NOTHING will!
