fatarms 7,777 Posted April 7, 2017 is it just me or does this one look really fake? I just made a purchase and this is kinda scaring me haha. The dial looks kinda funky colored and the links are shiny instead of brushed? not to mention there is no pearl at the 12oclock... im new to this so i mihgt just be wrong.. The pearl's there. Keep looking at the pic, you'll see it eventually. Probably the backlighting in the photo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or are you trying to see a Sub? Also I'm not claiming 'super rep' with this one, and it was an on the fly shot with an iphone on a sunny day. don't panic, I'm sure your expectations of your order will be met.... :thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Awesome, you just described a Submariner, this is a GMT Master.... yes, you are new to this. It's ok though, give it some time and some research. This place is a wealth of knowledge.

GenTLe 1,509 Posted April 10, 2017 Finally finished (last step has been installing this new aftermarket mainspring: https://www.cousinsuk.com/product/up-to-125mm-height?code=GR3132X ) because the original 2846 was set and the 2836 one is too strong and was making to amplitude to go way too high at 350°.
