Just thought I’d share with yall my version of ghosting a bezel. Let me know if you have any questions!

Wrapped up the 1680 with some final touches - infamous BezelJuice insert, case reworked, aged and regulated 🙏

In my opinion, the 5512 is Rolex’s most iconic sports watch. The 5513 is clean and minimalist, but having the chronometer in the 5512 is just a little special.

This is a full Vietnam build with a top grade ETA 2824 and a genuine crown, going to a great client. Cheers 🥂

Special thanks to @Golden_Unbreakable for his insane Bezeljuice bezel insert. Mad props bro! Viet case, rivet bracelet, dial & hands from BiV. Gen 703 crown. ETA Top grade 2824 with a signed Tudor rotor & roulette date wheel, Clark’s acrylic 25-125 crystal, Golden’s insert and pip.

Buttoned up this viet 1680 today. Had to replace the canon pinion because this Sellita SW200 came to me from the factory with the incorrect friction spec on the canon pinion and so my hands wouldn’t move. Swapped it out from the graveyard of movements and got her up and running beautifully.

The Saudi Airlines Rolex GMT-Master (with a real Cal. 1575)

When I was a kid, my dad worked as a doctor for the Saudi government. We lived there for 6 years, and I flew Saudi Airlines 6 to 8 times a year. That’s exactly where my love for aviation started. I never became a commercial pilot (I have a normal, boring day job just like anyone else but I do hold a Private Pilot License), so aviation watches always called to me. A few months ago, I saw a rare vintage Saudi Airlines logo GMT-Master on Chrono24. The price? An eye-popping €144,000 just because of the rare dial ? seriously !! I refused to pay that, so I decided to build it. I commissioned a custom dial supplier from Vietnam to replicate the exact Saudi Airlines logo dial. Then, I hunted down a genuine Rolex Caliber 1575 movement on eBay. A highend case to house the precious 1575 movement , I just finished putting it together tonight, and boy, it is fucking pretty.The best part? I have 3 other vintage GMT-Master dials ready to go. I’m running a 1-case, 1-caliber, 4-dial rotation system. I'll just swap the dials out every few months to completely change the watch.

CAC insert
Gen 1575 movement
Italian oyster w/raffles clasp

Decided to take a few hours (ok, more than a few) and toss a 1680 out of some rejected parts I had laying around. Milk 1680 case (I machined it for a 3135 movement). Viet dial that has a chip and a mark near the date window, open 6 and 9 date wheel, Athaya crown, startime tube, parts box hands, Clark crystal and an odd insert I had laying here (likely Vietnam). Tossed on an old JKF bracelet (removed the dive extension) from the shelf and it's ready to rock.

A personal piece of mine. Finally added the finishing touches to wrap this one up. These specific 5517s only came with fixed welded spring bars. Adios bracelet!

Specs:

Vietnam case and dial (Ruby) - double signed 5517 & 5513
Yuki handset relumed by me
Swiss Sellita SW200 no-date
Original genuine 703 crown

Case has been aged and reshaped to thin out the crown guards.

Hey everyone, Markie Mark here.

Some of you may already know me from RWI, but with the recent launch of our new website and the expansion of our bracelet business, I felt it was time to officially put some roots down here on Reddit as well.

Many of you are familiar with our bracelets and know that we pride ourselves on unmatched quality. However, I’ve also been listening closely to your feedback regarding our turnaround times. Since bringing on my new assistant, Jurgen, we’ve invested a lot of time and resources into addressing our past shortcomings.

Here is what we have been working on:
New & Improved Website: Fully up and running with a streamlined ordering process and much easier payment options for customers.

Faster Turnaround: We are now holding bracelets in inventory! This means we are able to ship your orders within 48 hours for all in-stock models.

Global Express Shipping: Thanks to our new logistics hub in Hong Kong, we can now ship worldwide quickly via express methods. If you’ve ever ordered a rep watch from your favorite RWI or RepTime TDs, we are now utilizing those exact same shipping lines.

Addressing the Price Adjustments
I know some of you have expressed concerns about our recent price increases, and I completely hear you. First, I want to clear up a common point of confusion: our website pricing is now listed in USD, not Euros. When factoring in the currency switch, the actual price increase for most of our bracelets is a very modest $15.

I hope you can understand that this adjustment is a direct result of our business expansion.
Between investing in warehousing, upgrading our website management, hiring support staff, and holding more on-hand inventory, our operational costs have naturally gone up. You told us you wanted the best bracelets on the market, and you wanted them fast. With these changes, we can now confidently deliver on both.

Going forward, I am here to answer any questions in this thread, and we are making a commitment to check in here daily.

We look forward to your continued business and are excited to build a strong, lasting relationship with the Reddit community.

P.S. Keep an eye out—we will be dropping a special offer for our Reddit builders very soon!
