That is exactly what gets me. 2k for a rebuild is simply a ripoff. I know it takes several hours to rebuild a watch. Personally, I have been working on watches myself. It is truly not that hard.
Sincerely feel that I can get a superb watch for 2k. My most expensive watch is a day date...
I had my first rolex in 86. I still wear it. I used to wear it even during masonry construction work. LOL. Watches are to be used. Despite the fact I used to collect watches, I try to wear them all. Even if I am writing my bike in the rain. I am not a fan of safe queens.
I visited their store and tried on this jacket. The listing is very generous with the measurements. I was a little concerned because I went to see a different jacket but his measurements are way off. Not a very cool person to deal with. His assistant was a nice guy.
The image presented is not a regular trojan pattern. It looks long about 1.5 longer in the torso. It bugs me a bit LW uses the same mouton collar pattern for all their cross-zipp motorcycle jackets. Would have loved to see more original work from him. At their current price, it is a shame...
Patters are king. But it all boils down to you body type. Cals are hard to beat because of their overall quality and price. Trojans were very safe jacket and were built with outstanding hides. They care about safety unlike most maker of the time.
The jacket is late sixties. The hide and style of the jacket are consistent with that period of their production. Alum zips were the style during that time.
I am curious. Can anyone PLEASE translate it into English? The oldest is the upper right followed by the upper left then the lower left and finally the "Elvis"
the L is a newer version of the j24. Personally, I like the regular j24 due to the construction quality. But the last production of the j24L bucos in steer develops a very supple and light brown patina that I really like.
Good eye. Thanks for the head up. I might be selling a very similar j24l in steer just like the one in the image. Mine however still has excellent condition hardware including the main zip. The only issue is the sleeves were shortened by one inch. I will sell it for 500 us dollars deliver...
