Tapatalk cuz it seems like the most popular plugin used by forums. They also got hd for tablets. Then iPad one was released and android is in beta - free to download

Dun think any are worth getting since one of the main draws of Balls is the tubes and no reps I've seen have working ones. If you're still interested, watcheden has got one still

sorry maybe a little ot, but i dont think this is necessarily true. there are invictas and deep blues that boast 1000m or more water resistant but i doubt theyre anymore durable or well built than a run of the mill 100mm japanese or swiss watch. also for durability id look at something with attention to shockproof, treated metals and anti-magnetic ratings which unfortunately most reps don't have . not that they're not well built. also, while it's not 2012 a 1:1 Tudor Black Bay super rep is in the works, scheduled for early next year. possibly a Pelagos after.

Angus has said before Chinese New Years if we are lucky.

Interesting that they only sent t the message now. I swear I got that message several months ago and had to make a new account to keep uploading.

have not seen closed caseback yet

yeah loupes can be dangerous... once you see that flaw it cannot be unseen... it'll haunt you and could destroy your appreciation for that (gen) watch as you obbess about that tiny speck of dust naked to the eye, or that hour marker's rough edge

Is this www.wrist-check.com/? that is working for me, although I can't see anything other than the log-in page since registrations are closed. I am interested now how does one go about obtaining access to this site

I agree with the Seiko recommendations but if his colleagues are just regular luxury watch owners, they're going to look down Seikos even if it is a Grand Seiko.

Homageforum is working for me right now

It stands for PAnerai Model apparently

yeah now they actually wont allow any pictures of homages that have trademarked text, like that or superlative chronometer

I think they might but it may not be worth the trouble for brands the big brands to do anything . But Ken at RXW was sued by Pamerai for his remarkable homages. I cannot find what specifically he got sued for but he lost and had to stop production. They also sued this guy: http://anton-c.blogspot.com/2008/10/officine-panerai-sues-naples-watch.html One of the comments on that Page brings up that designs are only protected for 25 years in some European nations. I think that's for artistic works and Idk if watch design counts.

Trident must be a codename for mashup homages.... Christopher Ward has a Trident as well and it takes design aspects from Rolex (bezel), Omega (wave dial) and Bremont (markers, hands). Haha both brands are also British and have similar taglines: British Heart with Swiss manufacturing/ETA movements. They also have a Tudor bb homage... Looks to be the same one a HK seller was selling at half the price, just re branded as Trident.

Fastest I've had from China/HK is 3 days by EMS. once by airmail as well but that was some watch part. usually takes 4-7 days though. I also had a FedEx arrive in 1 day from overseas... must have been express. i cant remember anymore.
