If all goes well, I'll have some pics up for you soon ...

Did you click one of the little icons in the bottom right of my post? GIVE ME ICON CLICKAGE!!!

That's Paulmart's faux Chrono version. Not worth even considering. This Aquatimer is indeed not made by the SFSO/HBB/BCE maker. However, it's made by the Ultimate Planet Ocean maker, so don't despair.

Ok, would you prefer the 111h or the Radiomir? Do you even know the difference?

Of Dorothy?

I'll lend you a Panerai to review. Now that post will get a serious number of shocked replies.

... and that did indeed show no class.

http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?act=Search&f=3 There has been much posted that it would not be fair to condense it into a single paragraph.

I suspect we'll know by Wednesday.

If it weren't for the fact I love the sound of my own voice (well, the look of my own posts, I suppose) then I'd have found it difficult to still want to post reviews and photos. You'd better all be glad I'm an arrogant and enthusiastic egotist that doesn't even know when it's time to stop, or I'd never get round to writing the Aquatimer review! So go on, review posts, say "great post" or offer criticism. It's the internet, you're allowed an opinion, even if you know nothing!

Um, you can expect a review. There is absolutely no doubt of this.

If you're in Europe and you can't connect to RWI, you need a proxy. They're aware of this and there's nothing they can do about it.

So, it's good for the community to tell everyone so one of our fellow members can get the best possible deal? I bet Realmore is really happy it got posted here.

I realised this a while ago. I just preferred to wait until it's confirmed.

... until it gets flattened by the wind.

How much did you pre-pay? Everything I'm hearing is soon, soon and around $350-$385, which is worrying, but inevitable. I have the cash sitting around ready to go to my dealer.

If you're going to order one from anyone, check and double-check that the one they will send you is the one in the picture.

Does ebay ever sell replicas? No, Ebay doesn't sell anything.

The Zigmeister-zag-ah! Welcome back, mate.

I'm wearing the one on the left today as I'm travelling (Ireland again) on a contract. This photo was taken Saturday at the Connect 2007 festival in Inveraray and is possibly the only wristshot picture I've not taken myself. Mrs Pugwash did the honours while I drank beer. Please note AAA (Access All Areas) pass with Grade AAA+++ watch.

How's about making browsing with VIP/Supporter status remove the adverts? Worksafe can be bought then.

Another vote for "MacBook" here.

I'm with Andreww on this one. Any modern 7750-based rep (6-9-12) should be as good as you need. It's not going to die in 35 minutes and as long as the chrono second hand is well built, it'll work perfectly as a chrono. I tend to believe that it doesn't need servicing out of the box as I have several one year old Asian 7750 replicas that are running as well as when they were bought. The Zigmeister, upon servicing my GST, said the movement was pristine. Sure, a service is worthwhile if you can afford it, but if you buy replicas with the intention of getting one to two years of life out of them, it's not needed. Watches like the Aquaracer, Aquatimer, Carrera, BCE, GST, etc., will all be fine. Even the HBB with the added layer to move the 12 to the 3 will be fine as that's exactly what the gen has instead of the 7753.

If not more.
