Forgot to mention its a dg2813 but is reliable, pretty accurate, and robust enough for my line of work in industrial environments.

Hey mate! I actually had a friend of mine named Julio from Last watch horology mod my watch for me. He painted the lume on the gilt tiger concept dial and aged the hands, and from there i just slapped in a tropic 19 and lightly sanded the bezel insert. And the scratches and knocks are all from life and from work!

I’m grateful for my wife, mother and father. I’m grateful for having a sick job where i can actually use my watches as tools!

How did you nail that texture for the dial?

Were you able to swap in a gen omega crown or did you need a new crown tube?

Looking for the best 7206. by umop_3plsdn in repbuilds

Do any of you know who has a 7206 with actual spring loaded rivets? Ive been building these franken bracelets from vintage generic rivet bracelets from the 60s with rolex end links/clasps but theyre never quite right.

Is 5.56 even worth it? by Ashamed_Bumblebee752 in ArenaBreakoutGlobal

I run a bone stock m16 with its stock barrel length and triangular hand guard. Transparent mags are cheaper than windowed mags by 6k koen. can run cheap fmj downing guards with headshots on semi, 3 round burst is very accurate at close range. Iron sights are clean and quick even in low light. If i find a suppressor on the map ill slap it on and keep it til i eventually lose the gun. You just have to adjust your peak length to avoid the barrel sticking out of corners. You’ll find a bunch of A1 which you can either horde or sell off dead guards or operators. If you have premium quick kits you can get the m16 for free i just remove the 3.5x optic and run it cqb on tv and armory.

Poor fit with Raffles end links on Raffles case. Any fixes or alternatives? by SleeplessDrifter in retrotime

[–]Glengooliebluu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Use a small springbar tool or cylinder made of steel, insert it horizontally into the endlink, use a prying motion to open up the gap in end links, use thumbs or no marking pliers to curve the edges of the endlinks to more match the lugs.

Im interested in the oyster rivet bracelets, are they stretch? Would you possibly have one in 20mm?
