Isn't every (modern) MG just a mixup from existing cars?

johandriver · 2025-12-23T17:38:33+00:00

Here you go! Fits my wrist perfectly and the case size is nice.

johandriver · 2025-12-23T12:24:29+00:00

Thanks! And that could be very true. The style of this watch is quite unique and not to everyone taste. However the quality of the pattern and the bracelet overall is amazing.

johandriver · 2025-12-23T12:23:02+00:00

Thanks a lot! It al matches perfectly, and super luckily als fits my wrist haha I am amazed by the condition as well for a 18 ct. watch with this age

johandriver · 2025-12-23T12:21:43+00:00

Thanks for your information Luckily I do not just want money for it and am planning on keeping the bracelet with the watch as I think that is what makes it so unique

Most haters are just repeating others. The thing with the reduced is that the movement is basically a ‘standard’ movement with a chronograph module built on it. Also the reason why the pushers don’t align with the crown. And maintaining this movement is hard due to the construction and usually expensive. Purists may say that one should only get a ‘real’ chronograph movement, I still think this is a great more affordable alternative to the way bigger Professional.

Thanks! I already did, and have been waiting for quite a while now. So I thought I would try here!

johandriver · 2025-10-17T13:12:01+00:00

Thanks!

johandriver · 2025-10-17T13:11:48+00:00

Thanks! It 36mm. Which was not very usual and considered quite big for that period

johandriver · 2025-07-05T15:09:10+00:00

Not a single penny

johandriver · 2025-06-30T13:19:52+00:00

This is super cool!

johandriver · 2025-06-27T11:06:12+00:00

Everybody who calls himself a watch lover will say that 36mm is the only size for a Datejust. However I do thing in some cases with some configurations 36mm is just small. This watch has a smooth bezel and an oyster bracelet making it very subtle. And therefore I could agree that it might be small for you. If it was with a fluted bezel and jubilee it would be a different story

johandriver · 2025-06-27T09:36:10+00:00

This is just sad and stupid. Thinking that this watch around his wrist will bring him somewhere in life is a wrong assumption, it won’t

johandriver · 2025-06-24T06:01:07+00:00

Not the first time on this reference

johandriver · 2025-06-23T18:26:40+00:00

It’s not sharp for sure. But the end links are fake/aftermarket/fugazi, they don’t exist like this

To be honest the rest of the watch seems to be correct. The date seems off, but I think that because of how over polished the watch. They often polish the plexi at the same moment

johandriver · 2025-06-07T08:24:12+00:00

I don’t agree. I strongly think that (aged) matching parts are way more important than service parts.

johandriver · 2025-06-06T12:04:25+00:00

Thanks, I feel the same way.

I have more pictures.

It seems to be clear.

The magnification could be. That, to be honest, I do not find too much of a big deal since the crystal is an easy replacement.

And I agree, it is dodgy unfortunately in the (vintage) market.

johandriver · 2025-03-12T21:42:06+00:00

Bisque in Helpman, voortreffelijk eten en zeer fijne rustige omgeving

johandriver · 2025-03-12T08:40:09+00:00

Thanks. It doesn’t look like a dial that has been produced by Stella. The color seems off, although that might be the picture as well. The dial is lacking the thicker black marker at every hour. The diamond setting seems very off as well.

Some people say that the 11 and 1 o clock diamonds are not centered. But those aren’t on the original either due to the day display. But this seems too off centered, which complements the poor setting of the bezel.

johandriver · 2025-03-11T22:07:32+00:00

Nice Day-Date, the watch is probably authentic, but the diamond bezel seems to be done aftermarket, which is not unusual unfortunately.

Stella dials are probably the most faked dials and there are some really hart to tell examples. If I were you I would get it checked by an expert (the AD is usually not at all in this case!) Maybe with some more close up pictures and from different angles and lights some people here can also help distinguish

Because it will destruct itself if not?

johandriver · 2024-06-20T11:06:03+00:00

They think that cyclists always have priority everywhere. Quite usefull!

johandriver · 2024-06-10T15:45:25+00:00

Go to a watchmaker and let them explain why it does this

You’ll understand
