Curious to know as well, if one day you feel bored with your GO, a new owner is waiting here. :Cheers:

Another one of those ecstatic days after the last few weeks of very heavy mentally taxing long work days and hardly any time to log in to MWF.....
but the arrival of 2 pieces late this afternoon, really made my day...

Wore this to office this morning:

SBGC003



Collected a parcel late this afternoon with this inside..
Was told that only 3 pieces received by dealer and 2 had been booked in advance..so I managed to get the last piece..

SBGW047G



Both SBGC003 & SBGW047 are Master Shop models.. one of our forummers was in Japan and I asked him to help me get the SBGW047G but he was told that only selected Master Shops can carry that model, whereas the SBGR081 is carried by all dealers.
I'm above ecstatic...yeee haaaaa

such a coincidence u mentioned the 033.
After getting the SBGW047, went back to compare it with SBGW033 last night.
The 033 started to look real good again after not being worn for months.
I thought it should see the light of day this morning..and for a easy comparison for those who wish to look for either one..
BTW the 033 costs 1.6 times the 047... must be the blued second hand and stamped dial coz movt is the same.




SBGW033

master hobbit, I'm aiming for project 300 and GMT. Have been lurking around MKII forum in WUS asking around for any empty slot let go by other members. Still looking around..... also waiting for the new model "fulcrum"  :Cheers:

TR1000? new model from MKII?

TR1000? new model from MKII?

Fulcrum looks to be an interesting proposition. As for the TR1000, it is the modern version of the TR900. TR being Tornek Rayville. The Tornek-Rayville TR-900 or Blancpain Fifty-Fathoms MILSPEC II nonmagnetic dive watch was made under U.S. Military Specification – Mil-W-22176A(SHIPS) / WATCH, WRIST, SUBMERSIBLE (400-FOOT), NON-MAGNETIC.

MKII was suppose to make the TR1000 in limited numbers yearly, but have thus far made less then 10 pieces. The TR1000 was released about 2 years ago. The Singray is similar in design as the TR1000.
