  12. Voted another: going w/ TC V6 now cost wise about same as some APs ( some are more) in the past did not count custom guys like Bk /TC in there but w/ prices what they are these days why not.

  13. Had same dilemma. Did a consulting gig for a little side cash for a new gen sub c. Always had one gen Rolex to wear then would trade it in every few years. So stuck wearing same watch every day or one of my old movodos or similar. Found this forum and decided to buy a bunch a reps. Bought about a dozen in last 5 months. Mostly m2m and a TC and couple BK's. Have a nice Franken 16750 build going now and need to build a vintage big crown yet just not sure which model. Super happy with that decision. Now tough decision of the day is which watch to wear....found a great watch smith here on the forum which has helped tremendously as we know the reps are not as reliable, but once he squares them up they are good to go. Wife looks at all the watches and keeps asking "haven't you spent your watch fund yet?" My response, "no only about half of it". Love the hobby and the forum. Happy shopping Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  15. Some really great advice and tips on here. I think I'm going to stick with the reps and have a string of one night stands until I find the right girl for me I'm not going to buy all at once either (although I've bought 6 reps this month) and find the 'sorted' examples on p2p as suggested from now Thanks all for this great advice and input!!

  16. "oh, and Oswald didn't shoot Kennedy." That has nothing to do with my posts or intent, it isn't sarcasm at all, sarcasm has the intention of humour behind it, condescension on the other hand has the intention of subtly insulting somebody. It also follows the pattern of your previous posts - condescending and insulting, apart from when you tried to impart some advice, tho' be it in a condescending manner. Kind Rgds

  17. That doesn't even pass as empty rhetoric, instead its just mindless nonsense going around in tiny circles. What I love about this site apart from the rich information on Rep. watches and hopefully contacts as to where to source and get custom work done, is that it displays the beauty of what it is I'm trying to 'enlighten' some of the blind to. Its the perfect analgous representation to the juxtaposed positions of those who are easily taken in by fakery and those who are not. The unexpected aspect to it all are those who are quite willing to take other fakeries for the real thing as advertised.....on TV! Rep. watches ARE that analogy and so with that 'enlightened' World View, the perfect 'high end' timepieces of the 21st Century - fake watches (Reps. to me) symbolising and laughing at the most evil yet clever bit of fakery ever thrust upon the world. Deeply saddening though that there really are so many who seemingly much prefer being blinded by that fakery while unappreciative of the irony in what I'm telling them. Kind Rgds

  18. Unbelievable. You cite 'basic physics' and don't understand how thin light fragile aluminium aeroplane wings can be, how they can't possibly slice through solid steel beams holding up the Twin Towers as shown on the all important TV? Common sense tells the average intelligence person its impossible but you defend that as 'basic physics'?! And people complain ....oh sorry...they're 'concerned' about.... my sanity, LOL! The world has been duped, dumbed down and made utterly compliant, effectively forced and bludgened into accept/believing ludicrous fantasy official explanations for an impossible crime. People can't and won't think for themselves about it and rattle off silly yet ignorant self-satisfied nonsense about 'basic physics' that they don't have a clue about. Try this then - Just read and think about it all before getting upset or anything else because this points to evidence, okay, not CTs, its EVIDENCE : a) How can two aeroplanes hitting WTC1&2 destroy all seven World Trade Centre buildings as they did apparently on 11th September 2001? They were direct hits we were shown on TV? - The other buildings were not impacted apart from minor damage by one beam falling on WTC7 and so that alone raises questions as to how did the other buildings develop massive circular vertical holes through their centres before being destroyed? Evidence of advanced Directed Energy Weapons is the answer. How did the buildings turn to dust in mid air if they were 'hit by planes'? If you study the evidence collected by Dr Wood, you will see that they appear to 'dustify' and not collapse at all. Merely the effect of seeing the dust settle and hearing descriptions of the event using the word 'collapse' leads people to think it was a collapse. Of course there were some remains of the buildings left, some core columns and 'shreddie-like' steel meshing and concrete but representing 10% of the original mass only. c) Dr Wood's book initially discusses a 'Billiard Ball Model' to illustrate how it would take significantly longer than 10 seconds for either Tower to 'collapse' as in both the official record and as shown 'live' on US Networked Television. But how did the 110 story buildings with each floor 'pancaking' on top of the one below take just 10 seconds to be demolished? Should it not have been 30 seconds minimum - or a full 90 seconds if each floor pancaked as officially recorded and mathematically calculated. Mathematically, scientifically and common sense suggest that each of those buildings virtually disappearing in 10 seconds approximately is impossible. d) It is scientifically not possible for the nose cone on the 'plane hitting' WTC2 to go clean through some of the tight fitting outer steel girders ringing the entire vertical structure and some of its inner core column steel girders and out the other side, yet that was seen on 'live' USTV until it 'lost transmission' temporarily. But just how can a Boeing 757 Jet's nose cone cut clean through solid layers of steel in this situation and appear out the other side of the building in tact? Boeing 757 nose cones are made of fibreglass and aluminium and in flight have been damaged by hailstones in the past. Such an incident occurred in 2005 when a Boeing 757 was battered by hailstones as it took off from Palma on the Spanish island of Majorca bound for Gatwick outside London. Its nose cone and wings were damaged, and the cockpit windows cracked, so how can a nose cone let alone a whole 757 cut straight through solid steel and concrete of a very well reinforced skyscraper? Answer, it cannot. e) Similar to Boeing 757 nosecones, how is it possible let alone probable that aluminium aeroplane wings can slice through solid steel girders, because the laws of physics, Newtons laws of motion, and Materials Science would suggest to the average scientific student that it was an impossibility? To my thinking as there were 236 steel girders around each tower and 47 in their centres, why didn't we see TV pictures of the Jumbo Jets tail sections breaking off and their fuselages falling to the ground as that is what basic physics and dynamic laws of motion will tell an average intelligence person - me. But I didn't see that and am very surprised to say the least especially as the plane reportedly hitting WTC2 did so at an oblique angle rather than head on. But instead we saw a Boeing plough straight through solid steel like it was a wet paper bag leaving a perfect cartoon silhouette behind. How is it possible that aluminium planes can do that, slice through in effect solid steel girders leading to the simultaneous failing of those girders just prior to the buildings 'collapse'? Answer, they didn't, it is not possible and any pictures showing that are evidence of deception. f) There 1200 cars, lorries and buses toasted, rusted with melted engine blocks over at FDR Drive, 1 Km away from WTC. What had they to do with two planes going into the towers? Could planes hitting the Twin Towers affect motor vehicles nearly 1 kilometre away? g) Why if the towers 'collapsed upon being hit and destroyed by planes' were there no significant seismic signals recorded? h) Why were there massive magnetometer readings at 08:45 and 9:10 up until 10:20 that morning as recorded by the Alaskan research stations at precisely the time of the plane impacts and respective Tower's destruction? Could that be a natural phenomena do you think and it is just coincidence? i) Why was Hurricane Erin, directly off the coast of New York that morning, barely reported especially when remembering the US coast guards are so weather minded? Cynics might suggest that it was because it would have interfered with the prepared centralised MSM news coverage of the impending 'plane' attacks and because it was part of the high energy generation process used in the destruction of the WTC via Directed Energy Weapon. Hurricanes are high energy fields, huge Tesla-like coils storing enormous electrical energy and that electro magnetism affects gravity which gives credence to how cars and other large objects are upturned when caught in hurricane fields. To NOT report that massive hurricane in the four day build up and directly off the east coast at 8am on the morning of 9/11 is highly questionable. j) The melting point of steel is 1200C minimum. Bearing in mind that kerosine burns at approximately 600 degrees why is it that people widely accept that this is what 'weakened' the steel structures leading to their 'collapse' outright? Answer, it is part of a general ignorance and misleading information broadcast by media and other so-called educational 'experts' blindly following official reports written for a misleading and deceptive agenda. k) Dr Wood’s research highlights so-called “Fuzzballs” of fine dust appear to be being created after heavier dust had settled as the buildings are turned to dust. This suggests that there might be some sort of nuclear action occurring. Similarly, the cleanup teams had to repeatedly hose down this reacting debris that by some accounts was 'hot', molten hot in some accounts. But how can people with rubber boots work for hours on molten material? And what could be the reaction that requires the debris to be hosed down so frequently and for an extended period during and after wards. Indeed that hosing down lasted many months after 11th September. l) Pilots including ex 747,757,767,777 pilots are united (mainly retired) in stating that the 'Official 911 Report' as compiled by NIST of the planes 'hitting the towers' is simply impossible and if only for the reason that no Boeing Jumbo of whatever flavour can fly at 500mph at altitudes less than 30,000 feet and certainly not at 700ft (approximately floor 80 of WTC1&2) as their wings would break off and the entire fuselage would be shattered due to resistance of the air alone, and that's assuming the planes could get the additional 8 times more power to propel them to that speed at such a low altitude - another impossibility in itself wouldn't you agree? I wonder if you saw that and what your thoughts on it are. I think you can find that too on the accompanying videos or on YouTube : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKHqhdlpvOQ (The many pilots include John Lear of Lear Jet Corp, Capt. Russ Wittenberg pilot of 747, 757, 767, 777, Commander Ralph Kolstad, U.S. Navy (ret) pilot of 757, 767, military aircraft, combat instructor; and 100s of others) m) TwinTowers 1 & 2 somehow, miraculously, fantastically showed the perfect silhouette of Boeing 757 wings and wingtips at the 'points of entry'. How is it that the Boeing jet that hit the Pentagon - flight 77, also an AA Boeing 757 didn't leave any outline of wings or wingtips. Surely bricks and mortar are easier to penetrate than solid steel, or am I missing something? Initially all the world saw of that impact was a large circular hole in one face of the building. Surely there's a little inconsistency there let alone the bigger one that a plane couldn't have approached the Pentagon from the North side at all in the first place due to obstacles and its flight path. n) The Twin Towers couldn't have 'collapsed' into the 'bathtub' that was built as foundation on the bedrock over the Hudson River because putting the TV pictures aside there were no seismic readings that correspond and no pile of rubble that reflects 500,000 tonnes of material, and most importantly Lower Manhattan would have been flooded due to the fracturing and destruction of that 500,000 tonnes of steel and concrete falling down upon that 'Bathtub' foundation. o) The poor people trapped high up in those buildings were taking their clothes off but seemingly not because of radiant fire heat. Clothes protect people from fire heat - so why take them off? Those 1250 'jumpers' seemed almost relieved to be out of the building, why was that? Because they were being subjected to intense microwave bombardment in the destruction of the towers? p) Following the destruction of the biggest office blocks in the world, the first responders, fire crews and police didn't see one desk, one chair or a single phone - just one single, barely recognisable bizarrely crumpled filing cabinet from a shop based on a ground floor - but nothing from the offices above. That's an unimaginable amount of unaccounted for office furniture - where could it all have gone? Would smoke, fire and remaining building rubble destroy it beyond trace? No, that would defy all existing laws and constitute a physical impossibility the result of an airplane disaster. q) The streets were littered with millions of sheets of white unburnt paper right next to burning cars in some instances. Scenes of burning buildings, burning cars, 'red hot' steel pouring out of the Towers, and yet millions of perfect white unburned papers everywhere. How is that possible? r) It is a criminal act to clear away the evidence at the scene of the WTC before any investigation was undertaken. Yet FEMA operatives were on standby the night before on 10th September and involved in the organisation of the Clean Up operation almost immediately after the Twin Towers were destroyed. Over 3000 people died in that incident let alone all those first responders who also died during and afterwards from the dust inhalation and other effects. The many Clean Up personnel who died as well or were permanently harmed subsequently is also of great importance. Just one murder surely requires a full investigation yet not apparently in NYC on 11 September 2001. Within minutes of the Towers being 'attacked by terrorists', the TV News networks had already solved the crime flashing up pictures of 'terrorists' known in the country and those men remained accused of the crime thereon afterwards. s) In one WTC building, mainstream MSN TV pictures show people in the cut out sections of the Boeing wings at 'impact points' waving for help. If the kerosene had heated the steel structures up to 1200C by exploding then why are those people not incinerated and especially as they were peering out of the impact points? Again, a physical impossibility. t) Only two people have legally challenged the Official 911 Report as compiled by NIST and which omits nearly all of this data, they are Dr Judy Wood and Dr Morgan Reynolds. Those legal cases can be found at: http://www.drjudywood.co.uk/articles/NIST/NIST_RFC.html. The NIST contractors have subsequently stated that their report which the US Government has released as the Official 911 Report only deals with events leading up to the alleged plane hijackings and impacts of the Twin Towers - and NOT their actual destruction. And yet this official report has been actively represented as THE definitive explanation of the event up to AND including the Towers destruction. This is fraud and deception on a national and international scale affecting the UK. u) Miscellaneous - including Official 9/11 Reporting of mysterious 'distressed phone calls to relatives' from alleged hijacked passengers in an era when that technology did not exists and certainly was not available to the public, i.e. direct dial from personal phones whilst in commercial passenger Boeing 757 Jet aeroplanes at altitudes of 35,000 feet or more. Remember, you implicitly asked and so I'm just politely informing you that you and the world need to rethink it all and start asking questions because at the moment you're all looking at and seeing illusions and hearing nonsense to back up those illusions. Have a nice evening. Kind Rgds

  20. Hello RWG ! After many weeks months years (2 years, in fact) of a very hard journey, I finally finished my first manual Daytona project - the 6265 Finding the parts was hard... Finding the right watchmaker to work with was very hard... Next step is a 6240 with the same kind of parts Here is a quick list of the parts used : - Valjoux 726 "Roamer" in pristine-like-new conditions. Takes 1sec by day on the timegraph, can you believe it ? - Phong case and case back, 5.2 mil, 2nd generation "thin" case to emulate a polished case over the time - Silver Big Red dial, 2nd generation, with gen hands. Most of the Tritium plots are here, witch is very good - Gen MKIII 6265 bezel - NOS 702 crown and 7020 tube - Gen T21 - Phong pushers, because his case is a big [censored] [censored] of [censored]. It would be gen P302 otherwise - 7835 bracelet and 271 end links, because 571 are not fitting, and I was lucky enough to find this bracelet in new conditions 1 week ago. End links was NOS / never used, can you believe it ? -- Because some photos talks much better than I can, here we are... Hope you'll enjoy it !!! Cheers ! :) R.
