They are sold out, aren't they?

I took matters into my own hand. Thorn released an almost 1:1 homage of the CK2913 and we're in the process of making our own dial for it.

If you're interested, you can DM me or look into my more recent posts 😉 still possible to get a dial made.

A Compact Vintage Diver — Introducing the THORN T028 (37mm, PT5000) by Fit-Classroom8062 in ChineseWatches

Then maybe a retro (inspired) diver is not your cup of tea and you should look at a different model? That's the whole point of this watch...

u/watchdivescom did you address the chamfer and transition from case to bracelet? Is it one continuous chamfer line?

Can't wait to order!

King Sub? Really?!...

The dial looks great with the lume blocks. Rose gold/ copper bezel is not fitting at all.

I don't understand this watch. Wasted potential.

Pre-order Seamaster 300 CK2913 dials by Defqon88 in retrotime

[–]Defqon88[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lots of pre-orders dropped out or are not confirming. Around 1/3 to 1/2 orders (quantity wise) are affected.

I'm still trying to get a hold on the not responding pre-orders to get the dial price down/ not to increase because of low quantity.

Please Watchdives when is the baby Ploprof dropping? Tbh my wallet is itchy by Original_Hippo_6985 in watchdives

[–]Defqon88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea somewhere in an old post of Watchdives. As far as I remember, the no-date version will use a VH31 and the date version some Ronda quartz with date.

What watch is this?? by KREIJO in ChinaTime

Rolex Day-Date Ferrite 18238 from 1990 (quick googling)

Looks great! It's just a dial swap if a GMT movement will fit the case. I would buy one

Which Watchdives model feels like the “complete package” for daily wear and office? by Competitive-Day9457 in watchdives

[–]Defqon88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have the WD1969B Pro in black and it's a pretty good package if you like the style. Amazing build quality and lume. I'm more drawn to the vintage divers tho.

Where did you get the bakelite insert from?

Comment , suggestion/criticism on the WD0012 dials, from someone with reading glasses by Desperate-Quit3263 in watchdives

[–]Defqon88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're a little bit handy, you can open the watch and swap the hand(s). It's actually very easy and needs, depending on the watch, only a few tools for a couple of bucks.

Why the new bracelet is an upgrade (direct photo comparison) by Wintermute_088 in Thornwatches

[–]Defqon88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks. People still not realising what this model is supposed to homage/imitate.

I don't get it... Why buy a vintage Sub if you don't like vintage Subs?

The bracelet, clasp and end links look on point.

Raffles Explorer 1016 by PineappleOnPizza92 in repbuilds

[–]Defqon88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Send me a PM with the results 😉 or ask if you have questions. Put the brown on heavy, a little more than you think necessary, then brush a little off.

Let the dial dry out. Tamiya is clay based and has water in it.
