i am using not my regular account on ebay so i will not spoil my 100% fedback the account i am using is a second one for bidding on suspicious (items or sellers).

Should i negotiate with the seller about payment ?

I think to use an escrow service but if he sends a rep and then i ship back the item to the seler the seller might claim that i send him a rep back.

How can i be covered that the seller will not try to say that he shiped another item than the one i will send him back

This is the worst case senario i think.

The best is to give 2.400$ and get the gen but i know this is not going to happen.

What you think ?

Aspire, Silixprime and Eddie Lee has better prices.

Homer and PT has the same but different that Silix or Eddie.

IMHO homer and PT has the more accurate box.

Ken, I think you guys have been doing a fantastic job. The thread that was closed should have been; it was nothing more than troll-food by the end.

Please keep up the good work.

I agree on that it was a thread i was started and served its purpose, after that went way off topic.

As i have seen from friends and people i know that they have gen rolex they do remove the green sticker, some of them didnt even bother to get it out safe they just rip it off.

VINTAGE

Might be considered as plaguerism by one or two at the old place!

JTB

I had some time to login to RWG(OLD) and i did today .. now i know what you mean...

Oui....but the movement would fit this one of mine......and all I would have to do is replace the centre bridge plate....et voila!.....a swan neck regulateur in a Marina Militare body.....with the correct "upside down" legend.......NON ?

Oui

Should i ship the movement to you Neil and send me back the correct Marina Militare ??

so is this a gen for sure ? or just the buyer thought that if the seller had his initials in the back this should be a gen ?

good deal for a gen... but if this is a rep ?

The buyer saw the pics below

he got the watch using the pay now button...

Now tell me the price he paid !!!

the guy that took this sub is a watchsmith... so his knowledge is at a high level... (i suppose)..

But the fact remain just he saw the 2 pics you see and the info was..

You are bidding on a used Rolex Submariner stainless steel watch. This watch is pressure proof to 1000 feet, has a special time lapse bezel, 27 jewel movement, synthetic sapphire crystal. The watch features an oyster link extension bracelet with a special flip lock clasp and black dial. My initials are engraved on the back, so there is no hologram, but I have all the paperwork, this watch is eight years old with very little wear, I have not worn it very often

please do an estimate i will give you the link to this endded auction later..

I am really sorry to busrt your bubbles guys... But there's nothing like a 47mm 6497. They are all the same. I swapped from 44mm case to 47mm case. And let me tell you - i also swapped to a 45mm Radiomir case. They were all the same. Strange huh?

Just watch the caseback and you'll see that on 47mm watches you see a tad more of the movement than on 44mm watches...

Thats good news oliver.. I like when those bubbles are deflated.

This movement is only OK for the 217.

But 217 is lefty if iam correct, so the officene panerai sould be written upside down.

The movement on ebay:

Gen 217

so the conclusion is that this movment is not even for 217 so were this could fit (and be like the real deal) ? sure can "fit" in both 217 and 127 but this would be incorrect for those pams.

John

and a nice lume shot

I think they are wrong for the Fiddy... This is the fifth Fiddy version Paul has and it is off.

Kosta can you tell us a litle more why this in a no go ? Fiddy is only G ?

John

Got my PAM base today - arrived in absolutely perfect condition and is a great watch - certainly the best value watch I have ever purchased!

Mine arrived before somedays PAM111 and pam 112 in perfect condition, both work fine and they absolutely worth the money, I cant believe even now that this "cheap" reps are so well made..

John

Probably my next purchase

I didn't notice when ya sold it Bricky, or I would have inquired....

The watch is perfect and it gets alot of wrist time, it has the 2 known obvious flaws (italics in the depth) and 300m in the case back insted of 3000m but i dont care breitling do not have the fake syndrome as rolex do and also is a somehow afordable gen so nobody believes this is a rep.

The construction is very good and this watch seems solid, it has AR coat also. I had no problem woth the bezel screws or any other problem, also the ETA works flawless...

John

...contacted palpatine.

How is he, did he mention anything about his current situatation, does he have the time to deal with watches...?

i believe he is not YET in the new RGW.

John

Nice Tip.. very nice indeed....

John

That is an outright lie from the "soup Nazi"

A Genuine nais768.. WOW rare vintage model..

Of course it's him.... the subtitle of that post was "[censored] suckers" before. He edited it to "I am gonna be nice" now. Get rid of that jerk.

If thats true.. i rest my case, second chance maybe allright given and lost.

John

what is your internet site???

i will look you watches

www.precioustime-uk.com

Didn't plan on it nais....

Play nice and all will be good with the universe

I agree, even if i had personal problems with nais, everybody deserves a second chance and in a new forum everything is under a new prespective.

John

PS. somehow i dont believe this is the "genuine" nais768 could be a replica, lets ask our dealers if a replica of this "model" exists. LOL

I knew PT is a man of his word.. My blue Sub TT 14k gold from PT is a beater in that issue.. just the dial is not perfect as all blue Sub TT reps.

But as for the band and the crown this is the best you can have.
