Pugwash

Sure, but it makes no sense. We've got so much evidence to the contrary. If Cartier don't care, why do they sent people to China to hunt factories? Why do Rolex pay GAF for all the tireless letter-writing and lobbying?

Um, huh?

I don't doubt you.

I'll go against the general consensus and say the second hand isn't too bad. It's very legible, for instance.

Yes, but it only works once. If you fall off the wagon, you need a different method for the second try. Oh, and Allen Carr died of Irony.

I couldn't have put it better myself.

Because I can?

No, not at all.

Let's see ... nope, I can't find a price anywhere, which means stupidly pricey.

Nicely done. Are you all left-handed?

The original link would use Imageshack too, surely.

like fish in a barrel ... I can't wait for April Fools with the gullibles we've got here. Oh, damn, I'll have no internets then.

Let's see, the chances of this happening are ... zero plus zero, multiply by zero, carry the zero ... um, none?

Isn't there a legal issue sending watches (gens and reps) to China from the US?

20mm for the Monster, 22mm for some other Seiko divers.

You're new here. You're exhibiting typical "Pull the ladder up behind you" mentality. Reps were a year ago. MBWs were easier to get, for instance. Moon watches and GST Chronos were du jour and the Noobmariner was fresh. Panerais were coming into their own and the Chinese finally got the 7750 right. And people were wanting to keep our site secret.

Yes, but I wasn't talking about that. I was directly replying to your "Illegal? Why? Illegal is something that is done out of established laws, and free market I don't think is illegal" comment. ps. Free markets don't work. Free Markets result in whoever has the most money wins. Slavery is a result of a free market, for instance.

of his Ex-Girlfriend?

Yup, I'm not sure about the pearl any more. It's too close to call. One of these on eBay with a leather strap will be hard to spot. Maybe someone will point out something obvious that we've missed, but there appear to be enough slight variations (date wheel?) that this is close enough. Yes, it's gone to the top of my list of accurate reps. I believe don't own anything closer to gen.

Let me get the bracelet as mine's on leather at the moment ... I have numbers on the last moveable links, not the actual end links.

But you're hacking a stopped movement ...

Gen. Damn, these reps are closer than I thought. My dial is identical to his apart from the better applied lume and the lume blobs on the chapter ring. Everything else looks identical.

Should it be allowed? I mean it does seem like bad form to question prices, but couldn't this be described as "market forces"? The Free Market model touted by so many should allow for someone posting on your thread with the same watch for a cheaper price. Where should the line be drawn?
