OP, my first mods would be/.have been relume and waterproof/seal up all gaskets, etc. Next, I would look for a new pearl or find someone to mod my pearl.

scorpion 0 Posted June 19, 2012 What would you all do first? Hit it with a very BIG hammer Did you join the forum just so you could post this wise crack or is it actually a serious answer to test the integrity of the watch crystal? It really should be a small hammer first then try the large one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
highergame 0 Posted June 19, 2012 never owned one myself bro.... but I keep hearing that there super heavy so I went with the sub, but I do like the bigger MM of the dssd better because the sub is some what small on my 8.25 wrist. But I think the mods I'd do is waterproofing and best lume you can get because those are the two things I love most about a modded rep.. the ablity to jump in the water with out worry and also to watch everyone say stuff because it glows like a flashlight.

gherrmann19 0 Posted June 19, 2012 I have two Sub reps from early 2000's that seem very small to me after wearing this calibre 2100 for the past 4 years. I really want a newer sub rep next they seem so well done. I just had to have a DSSD. I think they look great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
conx 0 Posted June 19, 2012 You'll love it. They are great reps. I personally wouldnt bother with any mods...it is what it is imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dssd 0 Posted June 19, 2012 send to kenny Who can waterproof it and relume and matt the dial, I also bought a Trevor bezel and he fitted this and tweaked the pearl He performs magic with reps Here's mine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gherrmann19 0 Posted June 19, 2012 I really cant tell the difference in the bezel assemblies and the pearl yet maybe a little down the road. I for sure want to get it waterproof and possibly loomed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems what you gain in the straight top triangle, you lose in the shonky pearl. Can anyone with a Trevor insert give us a macro shot of the pearl please? Also, I wouldn't bother having the dial matt finished. Gens come with either matt or gloss. again, each to their own g.man Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, I wouldn't bother having the dial matt finished. Gens come with either matt or gloss. again, each to their own g.man THanks Paul. Gman I have removed and recreated/relumed the pearl to match the lume of the dial and hands. To OP Personally when I get mine from Rochest the cheapee version, I am going to relume it, regulate it and waterproof it. This is good version for projects, but I don't know about the case construction if it is like the 1:1 case construction, but for the future ETA mods, I would use from this version the bezel insert and the dial indexes what are nice big and flat. These dial indexes are also great for Ceramic Submariner mods what I have done in past as well, gives the watch more gen look. But the watch it self for the price is really nice and close the gen, and these things are just minor and I think only 0.001% of people will even notice, It is only for personal feeling. I like to have all my watches glow like torch when I get out of the sun to dark room Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g.man 0 Posted June 19, 2012 Oh, I wasn't dissing your awesome work Kenny. I'm just curious because I've seen several photos of different members watches with the Trevor insert recently, and every time I've been struck that the pearl doesn't look as good as the standard pearl. I'd just love to see a macro shot of the pearl on a Trevor insert to compare the two. regards g.man Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
