I wonder how long it will take for this thread to make it to the loony bin ...

Already repped i assume

In a world where people actually paid 1000 bucks for a functionless "application" for the iPhone that put a picture of a ruby along with the words "I am rich" on your display everything is possible -> http://www.luxist.com/2008/08/06/i-am-rich-iphone-app/ This thing actually sold 7 times before Apple pulled it from the appstore. Damn ... I whish it would have stayed ... would have been an easy rep So, now I will have to implement plan B: An "unforgeable" 3D hologram sticker portraying Ueber-spoiled-brat-dumb-[censored] P. Hilton along with the sentence "I am rich and you ain't" for 2000$ a piece which people with just too much money can slap on their cellphones.

owned ... poor sucker ... but looks like he "just" lost a few fingers. http://www.livevideo.com/video/9E1B7450465...-elephant-.aspx

Just my two cents. The accusatory tone in pieter931's posting makes me wonder if he could maybe linked to sinowatches in some way ... Cartel ... my ass ... with probably 90% of replica review sites being owned by scammers and tricksters, this place here along with RG, RWI and maybe one or two others is one of the VERY few places where you can get real and unpartisan info. Reading posts like this really ticks me off...

Maybe it is irrelevant but since we are dealing in contraband keeping verifiable details of dealers or modders on file anywhere might be a one stop shop for law enforcement agencies, or am I being paranoid ?

USA = The Zigmeisterzumba (who is obviously in France right now)

How can a company like AP squeeze out something like THIS ?? The "crownguard" looks like the watch has spilled her guts or some fungus growing out of it. Really revolting .. Grahams just make me laugh, Defys and Concords make me wonder, but this one here makes me want to cry.

Where are you located ? If in CONUS, The Zigmeisterzumba would be your man. Changing the "officine panerai" engravings on the movement is not possible. If it is just a sticker you might try to find someone to do such a job. But you would probably be better of trying to find another movement. Can you post some pics of the movement ? Watchman

I am right handed ... wearing my watches on the left ... because wearing it on the right just feels so wrong

Yep, that helped a lot. Muchas gracias !! Oliver

Hi, I just recently acquired a Graham CF rep which is built around an obviously defunct Miyota OS20 quartz movement. Opened the caseback ... and have been scratching my head since then. Would anybody happen to have an idea on how to remove the winding stem from one of those? I wasn't able to identify anything I could unscrew or push in to release the stem. In the location where I would expect such a screw or opening I found a small protruding pin which seemingly can't be pushed in. I tried with some force but since it is protruding I am hesitant to push any harder because I am afraid I might slip and push the pricker right through the movement and dial if I try any harder. I can deal with mechanical movements ... but this little quartz [censored] is really becoming my personal nemesis. Furthermore even if I manage to remove the winding stem in the end I suppose I have to decouple/detach the pushers somehow before I will be able to take out the movement. So if anyone should be familiar with OS20s, I would appreciate his help. Cheers Oliver

Guess I was just looking in all the wrong places ... sigh.

Ok, thanks guys ... lesson learned

Hi, if I am not mistaken, this here is a fake: http://cgi.ebay.de/Officine-Panerai_W0QQit...id=p3286.c0.m14 Crown looks much too slim, movement looks like an Asian 6497 and the numbers on the caseback look familiar. Would any season PAM-REP spotters like to comment on it ? Cheers Oliver
