Welcome back! Congratulations on the newest addition to the "V" family. Like was mentioned get sleep now, I don't know if you can store it up, but you might want to try.

Or you can send him an e-mail or PM and he'll help you out.

Yeah, I heard he's disliked over at Risti. As for greedy slimebag, that is interesting because he sells his straps at 50% off and frequently adds freebies in other forums. I think must've totally misread him, because he's been nothing but kind to people with his merchandise.

He seems affable enough to me in the emails we've exchanged, too.

Heh. Cool. Still don't have a Xa-Mas, but I'm saving that for X-mas.

Oh, I know how nice he can be, but be careful he also has a forked tongue. He used to bash reps on his site and got into it with other strap vendors who sold to us on these forums. Then he realized how much money he was loosing and his story totally changed. He goes where they money is as any business man does, but to be such a turncoat makes him untrustworthy in my book. I used to buy many straps from him and even talked to him on the phone a few times, but since he made his hatred for us known and then switched sides, I haven't ordered anything from him. Some of the strap lines are very nice, but I won't order from him anymore. I've also discovered after several MP straps, the holes are in the wrong place for me, I'm in between holes.

That is a great combo. Something else that looks nice with that watch is a nice carbon fiber and off white stitch color. I like the looks of the brown straps with the PVD as long as you have a nice PVD buckle to put with the combo.

I need a 3rd voting option:

Don't buy either, Elliot L is a snake who steals peoples names for marketing purposes and who said replica people are cheap thieves, then markets his products to us when he realized we have a lot of money and spend it. He's a greedy slime bag.

So, if you added that for a voting option I would vote for that one. If I had to choose from the 2 options above I would take the first strap, I like the buckle, it's a copy of the design as I have on my XaMas strap.

Nice combo! I love the "pirate" buckle, I have the same one and it's nice and heavy. Wear it well and I hate to tell you, but my photo skills are worse than yours, you take some nice shots.

Very nice strap indeed! I love the antique alligator, great classic look, wear it well.

BTW welcome back, nice to see you around posting again.

I recently bought a Polluce and the bronze case is great, I love the patina that develops and it's a different watch over time because of this. I know of an all bronze case (black dial) FS on another watch forum and the gold version is on another forum as well. You can get the watch for ~$2600+/-, so looking at your other watch choices you'll have enough money left over to get something else. If you want links to the Polluce FS that I know of PM me and I'll send them to you.

You never really gave us a budget to follow, but if you have the funds I would look at the GP Sea Hawk II Pro, now that's a beautiful watch that will retain it's value.

Nice work, thanks for sharing.

@Wilith: Where did you get that Diver! Really unusual.

I traded a guy for it on TZ. Pretty unique watch, very thick and heavy (nearly 1 pound). It's not very practical as I never plan to dive down to 12,000', but it's fun.

CX 12,000' diver for me today:

Check out the Seal line they offer, pretty spendy for the PVD version. They do make some nice looking watches though and some aren't too expensive.

You're looking for an OEM strap. Check Paneristi Accessories forum

Paneristi

I agree it looks like the OEM tan calf with a Pre-V buckle. Simple to find, but OEM always = expensive. I think these run ~$120 for the strap and the buckle can be found for ~$25.

Great job! I really like how you compared the colors next to other "known" colors. I hate it when I get a strap I think is a nice rick dark brown and it comes in a off color tan. If you keep this up you might need your own photo section.

Great combo! I love that strap and now I can see why you would want to stop after this one.

Great work, the lume looks bright. I'm not a big fan of the base models, but this is a great looking watch and I like the baseball mitt strap too.

I think it looks great. The lume is beautiful and you can really see the nice AR in a few of the shots. All black looks good and as mentioned a nice tan looks good with PVD, but I also know red really makes the PVD pop, so she can try that as well.

Today I'm wearing my Bathys Benthic.

Welcome to the team, you both are great additions to our family here at RWG!

Cool new feature, but we all know I'm pretty , so I need to find a "simulated" location.

YES... one of my watches on my list... but it cost 5.200euro and you can

Here's the message I got from the "AD":

When we have all the info & pricing, I will send it to you.

Take a look at the link for some pictures of a prototype.

Blog about the watch

#5 or if you haven't checked it out yet the new Rolex GMT with the ceramic bezel and improved case/clasp. My BIG boss has one I got to check out today and I'm so jealous. Other than the GP you can get a great rep for much less, the GP pro is n my short list as well.

Ugly as hell, but I asked for more info from the AD. I'm a sucker for a BIG watch.

Also, 90% of people have no idea there is a "high range" replica world out there and only have access to these kind of watches

There's an idea, maybe you can introduce him to this forum. If he has Chinese connections we may have another dealer.
