I've got to chime in here with my .02. Unless you've got long green to drop on really heavy-duty purpose-built watches, there's no better $/watch value today than a good Seiko diver, whether the 007j, the 031, or any of the monsters. I've got each of those and they wear and look great. Like pug, I keep my 007 on a nato (blacked-out Rhino with PVD hardware) and it feels just as serious as my PO or RXW MM.

I've got a vintage Seiko Chrono with an over-enthusiastic flyback. Could you PM me the details for these guys? I'm in West Seattle.

I'm a Seattleite also, and a GTG would be a great idea!

Thanks for the warm welcome. I've got pretty eclectic tastes. My current wishlist: Omega Moon Watch, 45mm PO, Daytona, Navitimer Serie Speciale, PAM 212, TAG Monaco, Air King or Explorer 1, ad infinitum. Most recently I've been excited at the quality of vintage Breitling chronos from TTK.

Thanks, guys. The emails were directed to two of the dealers through the contact link on their webpages and the third to an email in their sig file, asking about items in their gallery.

Hi all, Long-time lurker, first-time poster. I've purchased three reps, all on the street. Two are decent and one is so laughable that I bought it for a friend as a gag. The two decent reps are an LV sub and a TAG Monaco 69. The joke was a quartz Canal St. Navitimer that didn't even have hands on the subdials. First, I want to say thanks to everyone for having a open and sharing community. I'm not much of a joiner, having seen too many forums on a variety of topics dissolve into chaos, dominated by a couple of of "experts" with too much time on their hands. Everyone seems very helpful and talented. Second, my post is one of concern. I've emailed three dealers asking for pricing information on several models and received no response after several weeks. I don't intend to name names, but am I violating some kind of unwritten rule by asking for price info? Is there a secret handshake or some such? SB
