Pugwash

Ooh, I can't wait. We love this [censored].

Maybe you should sell it to someone that'd wear it. It'd be better for your creation to get some wrist time somewhere.

Mine is easy, too. It cost me the same as a Superocean rep, too. Not bad for an ETA 2824-powered watch.

I've changed straps ...

I agree. Sinn, Fortis, Doxa, etc. They're all cheap enough as genuines, and are usually bought for their features. Getting a fake Doxa diver seems silly. What next? Repped Orsas? ps. Yes, I did just buy a genuine Fortis.

Er, dude ... By-Tor gets a lot of newbies hassling him. His reaction didn't seem overboard to me.

I've been getting a lot less since I added the caveat to my signature. Sure, my PM box fills in a couple of weeks, but at least I don't get the really stupid PMs much any more.

I got my steelfish from Precious Time. No EU customs hassles for me.

Trusty, do the community a favour and send me one for review then.

You're talking $300 between this and a cheap rep. $200 between this and a good rep. $100 between this and a high-end rep. For this price, you've got a SuperRep and enough change for an ETA Sub.

Still stuck in new watch mode ...

Because this hobby is illegal. We need to spot the shills. Besides, it's only to people with less than 10 posts asking for dealers, not contributing members with hundreds of posts.

Size? It's lovely. iirc, it's 44mm x 16mm

Not even the steelfish?

Don't go expecting a juicy Pugwash pictorial of one of these any time soon. Way out of my price league.

Even if they were, it's not just shipping. It's packing and shipping.

He gave them away so we'd know about them. That's cheap in advertising terms. Not at all stupid or crazy.

Throwing away money? It's not like he bought them.

The price isn't increasing, it's merely the value of the dollar that is tumbling.

According to the MotoGP commentary, it's golden week or something, and everyone is on holiday. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Week_(China)

Damn, I missed out on the fun. Trust me to be ill, eh? ps. Congrats to Ghostface and kudos to Ubi.

No-one has to post a gen. We still love reps here, right?

Who wants to make it a genuine weekend? I'll start with this puppy that arrived this very morn. Please excuse the crappidity of the pictures, but I've still not set my studio up:
