I wore this one today......my wife was in the mood for a Cosmo....the drink that is....

I havent post some of my vintage projects here, this one is my very first Pa homage project, and the big interest for this model is because of me being lefty the inspirational picture: the story/ the process: for the strap set: custom made hands: painted and aged NW CG with a little touched using the old fiddy case from jackson, reshaped n repolished re-taped Jackson fiddy case after reshape next to neckyzips case plus NW Case back plexy of the case back was custom cut from prescription lenses for eye glass...at that time NW havent sell the dome plexy for his CB gathering most of the parts crown setup and strap stitching... CG w BREV ITAL engrave with another strap ...i know those hands wasnt set up perfectly

I bought one of their 8 watch winders via EBay, they are selling some models off as "Ex Demo", and about half their RRP. Cost me £251 + postage from Germany. It arrived today - its absolutely HUGE! I saw the size of the box it came in and thought it must be 10 boxes inside each other or huge foam blocks. Nope. It's approx 24" wide, 12" deep and 10" high. 4 winders that hold two watches each, and further storage for 8 watches, plus enough room around the controls to stash half a dozen straps. Lovely dark piano gloss wood It's as new - it may be ex demo but I can't see any wear, marks or anything on it at all. The box had been opened and re-sealed, and it'd been taken out of the polystyrene packing side bits, but the thin polystyrene wrapping round it was original and unmolested. I like!

That's exactly where it's going Ben. There are a few advantages to being an elegible batchelor and this is one of them. My toys always take pride of place

Been enjoying this one:

I'm too strict. My goals are often 10% and no more. Therefore I tend to only build the uber rare or I build the very basic low end

Recently received this G.Gerlach RAF 303 Fighter Squadron Limited Edition model. It is a tribute to the Polish RAF 303 Fighter Squadron in a pilot style. Hands look black at certain angles, but then the blue really pops in certain lighting. Really liking it. But no more words, just some pics.

Mine came in today too and I have to say it is the best out of the box rep I have seen. I am happy to wear it as is but that's not goi g to stop me from doing a few mods... AR, lume, gen strap, gen ETA, maybe some others but I will play with it for a while to see. I can't say enough about it definitely worth the wait.

Mike PMed me too

I believe that fraggle is correct, it' different things to different folks, but in the end, it's up to the individual to determine what is and what isn't. In reality, there are only two descriptors that are accurate, genuine or rep. If it's not all genuine, then to me it's a rep. Now there are certainly some reps that are much higher grade than others. A watch that has an upgrade case, gen dial, hands,insert, crystal , crown/tube, springbars and bracelet is certainly more desirable than a bone stock rep of the same model. But in the end, it's still a rep. I find it pretty amusing to see some of the descriptions used to describe watches, especially sale watches. Obviously, the terminology, franken, superfranken,etc. are used pretty loosely. But in the end it's up to me, if I'm a potential buyer, to decide if the watch actually fits any of the criteria that we generally use for a highly modded watch.

No fraggle im not mad at you. We ok. Anyway I got mike we are in contact.

Sorry guys, can you keep him please!
