The movement was still good so I added the gmt parts to make it go with another dial I had (had destroyed the watch earlier in my learning curve). Buttoned it up and:

Thanks Travelterp. You are a good bloke.

That's a really purdy watch. First Rolex I've seen that I really like. Still a Rolex though. :suck:
