  1. Very nice indeed, the brown looks really rich...This watch is my current fave, my (ihc) rollie GMT II ceramic looks kinda small and puny next to it and consequently has had zero wrist time...
  2. WOOT ! my black dial version arrived this afternoon...here's some slightly sad pics that I hurridly snapped .. I think it's my new favorite, but mine does have a crown thats a bit iffy...it wobbles a fair bit and after setting the date I have to pull it out to the time setting position then push it all the way back in before screwing it down to the case. If I don't, it'll advance the date 4 days as it screws down I'll send an email to Trusty and see what he suggests... That said, it really is a very, very nice watch indeed.....
  3. just putting this one up to the top again... still looks sketchy without the LUC on the back case... any Chopardites out there... http://cgi.ebay.com/CHOPARD-MILLE-MIGLIA-G...1QQcmdZViewItem Hublot again... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=130231556979
  4. assuming that what is in the picture is what you'll find when you open the envelope.....
  5. I've been trying to order watches from both Trusty and Puretime with my credit card...I get redirected to MBS to make my payment, but after I put in my address details and confirm the amount, the next page "https://3ds.cps.lv/tps/rh.aspx" throws up a "the website can't be found"... I've tried with Firefox, Safari and opera- same result I ended up using PP for Puretime, but Trusty doesn't take it.... Just me or anybody else experiencing this ?
  6. hugely... I have a 144 gmt and a 142 (though it's the Bell and Ross branded version) i'm on the lookout for the 757 utc.... Many of you may already know this site... search all for sale watch forums Put in the brand and the # of days you want to back-search....... you can also look for firearms and, of course, houses for your aquatic finned friends, so, a little bit of something for everyone, then....
  7. I just ordered one from Ruby...I'll wait to see what the pic looks like when she sends it.... otherwise I'll grab an IWC 3717 off her instead and get the SO from TT....
  8. if you're thinking of going Graham, how about the oversize divers rep...
  9. I'm a sucker for Sinn, altering the 2nd timezone is as easy as pulling the crown out to the 2nd click and turning it anti clockwise, the hour hand jumps forward an hour for each click. You can also hide the GMT hand behind the hour hand to reduce clutter. Nice ! how about a Sinn 757 utc.... or a 144 GMT or a 756 utc
  10. I bought a UPO chrono from him with a very wonky crown that won't screw down into the case consistantly. I emailed him and contacted him via his website with no reply...I want to buy a 3717 and a chopard MM XL from him and he answered my questions on those very quickly whilst ignoring my earlier questions re the crown, so I have little confidence that should anything go wrong with any future purchases i will get any kind of resolution
  11. elapsed hours for your stopwatch.... the one at 9 is running seconds, should be cheerfully trotting around all the time, the one at 3 is elapsed minutes for the stopwatch... ah...see, thought I was being clever in answering the question, but I was being soooo clever I didn't notice there was already a "page 2" already with the answer....
  12. hmm can't edit my above post...ah well, here's a pic..from some angles they look dark, but from straight on....
  13. so you posted that just to make me feel miserable then.... quick question, what color are your subdials ? Mine are quite a bit greyer than the rest of the dial with prominent concentric rings...yours look flat and almost the same color as the dial...
  14. Ruby has the 21 j for $129...My question is around the diffences between the 21J and the asian eta clone. Different names for the same thing ? I don't need a swiss ETA, I'll be happy with the Asian copy at $219, i just want to know in which respects it's better than a 21j movement.... Silix's Swiss EtA is $250, but the one in his site pics has well wonky lume at the hour markers...i will happily pay the extra $19 to get pics from Ruby of the actual watch I'll be getting so i can visually check it over prior to shipping. I'm pleased she didn't try to pass off the asian as swiss.
  15. Well,yes and no... I just put in an order with Ruby and asked the question, pointing her toward this thread...here are her replies in bold: These are absolutely real Swiss ETA movements not clones ? http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=75350 cheers Adam Hi Adam Be honest, this one is not real swiss. Real swiss movemet one, new price is $269. Let me knwo if you still want this one. Thanks! Ruby thank you for letting me know. I am not sure what to do. What movement is in the $219 version ? Many thanks adam Asian ETA 2836, 28800BPH. I really want this watch but as a noob, i don't know the diff between a 21j and an asian 2836 or whether 219 is a good price for an asian clone...
  16. yup, 16" of posable plastic goodness think he's on page 3 or 4
  17. couple of pics of mine (at last...) This is one of the best looking watches I've ever seen...
  18. I have a gen Seamaster in Ti and a rep PO chrono. I wear the rep more as it's just a visually more impressive watch (even if it is hilariously inaccurate). Bernardwatch.com has a couple of gently used ones on his site for about 3,500 w/ box/papers /warranty.
  19. it does indeed appear pretty black in pics as do the subdials, but my strap is a very dark blue/grey.
  20. that's what I though, but mine has none at all. Everthing else on the watch is spot on though, datewheel /inner bezel alignment etc, and I'm overall really, really impressed by it. Think I'll either send it off to get lumed or try and buy someone elses modded one... cheers
  21. This looks pretty good, except the minute numbers look printed rather than engraved and I can't see the "LUC" on the caseback that are missing on the reps...it comes with the full set of boxes and gear though...I'm frankly not sharp enough to tell.... hxxp://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130226993966&indexURL=2&photoDisplayType=2#ebayphotohosting he's also selling a Hublot.... hxxp://cgi.ebay.com/HUBLOT-SUPER-B-FLYBACK-CHRONO-WATCH-BLACK-MAGIC-LIMITED_W0QQitemZ130227471257QQihZ003QQcategoryZ31387QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcm dZViewItem
