Me and a colleague almost felt off our chairs

in the office reading this

I guess real life always writes the best stories and jokes!

Then it dawned on me that my chrono avenger is made of titanium. I'm just a f__king idiot sometimes

Excellent Info!!

-------------------------------------

@andreww

concerning titanium and magnetism i found this on the net:

"...Titanium is Paramagnetic. This is a form of magnetism which occurs

only in the presence of an externally applied magnetic field.

Paramagnetic materials are attracted to magnetic fields, hence have a

relative magnetic permeability greater than one (or, equivalently,

a positive magnetic susceptibility). However, unlike ferromagnetic

which are also attracted to magnetic fields, paramagnets do not retain

any magnetization in the absence of an externally applied magnetic field."

Hi there - take a seat take a biscuit...

Hope youll have loads of fun

Georg

Moreover, the project did start since Monday as I did send deposit to him already.

Cheers,

Paul

More than curious about the results

George

Congrats...

May your love last!!

george

You know what I miss? The erudite, pithy and flippin' hilarious reparte' betwixt Dems and TTK...

Lol @nanuq you are damn right

Great los to the entertainment-factor!

You know what... when it started with bursting the "group-buy-bubble"

on the TTK-Thai-Market i first thought his sense of humour

gone mad and all was just for entertaining too.

Too bad it wasnt a "joke" and members did loose

their funds...

And @mbjoer

"why are dealers called collectors?"

Same issue with myself asking my mom at the age of 6:

"Why are rapists called casanovas?"

Mom:

-----> "Because its less obvious my son."

You know what famous quote comes to my mind

when thinking of these TTK battles with members lol

when he really got f***ed up with somebody:

"Cmon its just about watches!"

lol

I guess we need a "Famous quote section on RWG" -

especially for the banned!!

George

Very nice!

i like this one...

wear it well!

p.s. i think i know

wheres your gen mov. from (rwg)

congrats

george

Yes, supposedly he should send me some screws...

Now this whole thread got screw_ed up anyway!!

Just stumbled about it a second time...

I really do hope, the deceived members and others

grub this guy out from down under.

Thats really embarrassing taking hard earned money from people

stealing away!!

George

@elenuccia

nothing of both... you got a CN rep of AP RO 15300ST make.

Regards

George

First of all thumbs up!!!

:thumbs:

You did the best you could do to this "baby"

...but "MBW" doesnt seem to be the right

title - this one seems to be the 38mm AP RO 14790ST

to me. To my knowledge there was never a TH rep

or MBW/MBK rep of this made.

Anyway... enjoy!

To me, that has always been one of the bigger flaws, as the rep hands are flat with little to no depth or shape at all:

...Would be interesting if you guys can commission a correct set of those as well...

One thing at a time, I suppose...

Thanxs Ubi... finally someone (else) pointed this issue out too.

Before i posted this pics here, i got questions if i see "ghosts".

A genuine set of hands for the jumbo must be around 100,-

Wow... so what was this? a quickie for you.. Wham bam thank you maam...

You think you can use us, then discard us a like yesterday's underwear?

I DON'T THINK SO !!!!!

cmon mr. dudemeister...

dont be mr. sensible

at least he said goodbye and thanxs

in afriendly manner.

we all dont know where life drags us...

i guess many of us are members in

various boards on the net.

George

I currently acquiring parts for a franken tudor sub, but I am interested in an AP assembled for me also. Count me in.

twon12 (tony).

Alrite... acknowlegded.

Problem is Rolexfinder/Paul has still to negotiate

with his dial-producer.

i guess hes busy with the group-buy for

moding the screws of this AP mbw jumbo.

As soon as (we) or i hear something about

the quality and ability of his source in dial-reping.

We or i will let you know!

Best thing is to start a second thread

with UNMISTAKABLY TITEL

to gather as much of you people interested in

this project...

Sorry guys, to me there is no way i will

call my AP contact before theres no reasonable

and "better than existing mbw/mbk dial-way"

in sight to accomplish this project.

End of transmission so far

Lets see...

George

Seeing as I have bought a watch, I really have no reason to remain on these forums. It's been great, everyone has been for the most part helpful. Since I don't plan on becoming a replica collector, or owner for that matter I say goodbye to all of you. It's been fun.

-OrenG

Live well buddy... i can understand you!

My problem is that my "holy grail watch" is

still too rich for my bank account at the moment -

but im working on escaping from RWG too very hard

every day

George

Sorry Katerchen...

No "sorry-situation" down here

the same goes with me...

im also waitin to get some more specific infos

about the possible results of a dial cloning.

Rolexfinder got my PM, i guess hes waitin

confirmation/infos from his dial-manufacturer.

I guess the best will be to start a second thread

if the quality of the replicated dials (i guess

it should be possible to post some pics of

allready produced dials of this manufacturer)

is good enough to give this project a try

with a genuine sample.

This issues have to be sorted out

before i try to get in contact with

my contact. So i we have to work close

together... nobody would benefit of

a situation for ex. having bought

a gen dial (thru a group of members)

without having a good possibility

of cloning this thing

I guess its Rolexfinders turn now.

We have to be patient...

I really cross my fingers and hope

that if i call my contact again,

he would say "k, what ref., color,

price is..., drop me the cash...

approximate time will be bla bla."

I hope this will work out for all of us!

Lets see.

George

bump

I m in for 65 euros, who gets original dial when the project is completed ?

LOL

@specialvat... good one!

And i thought i already did consider everything.

No... you are goddamn right!

At the moment there is one idea

coming to my mind:

1.) Presumed that the genuine dial

will survive the "process of replication"

and

2.) presumed that the option of

portioning/cutting the GEN dial

is utter bull_shit

i propose

to auction the genuine dial

at the end of the project,

spending the asset-money either

1. to the board

or

2. to the members

that made the purchase

of the gen dial possible

with their deposit!

So what do you think??

And @specialvat

you are giving me a very good

"impulse" with youre "65" Euros!!

I think if the price is still

650 Euros for me and my contact

is still able to source us the needed part,

a "deposit" of 10% seems to be fair

to me or even to others.

So what does this means to me?

K... if we do find 10 Persons

willing to spent 65,-

I would be in

1.rolexfinder

2.(myself)

3.aanival

so far so good.

pls also do mention what

amount you are willing to pay...

i would be in with 50 up to 100 Euro

depends also on quality of

Mr. Rolexfinder replication technique

but i guess Paul will keep us informed.

Also pls remember that your(our)

money will be spent on a gen dial.

I have NO idea what price

will be the replication of this thing...

But let me guess... with all the members

that already own an MBK/MBW jumbo

or people that consider getting one.

This project will be able to be "refinanced"

just by the number of people willing

to buy a good reped dial!?

I really have no clue, but i think

that if a good replication of a Jumbo-Dial

will exist - at least I woluld be willing

to spent (again) 50-100

Ok people...

Paul will get in touch with his dial-manufacturer.

I guess he will let us know the outcome

(pics of replicated/manufactured dials might be very helpful)

Another thing thats VERY important to me:

HOW MANY of you folks are interested in

a CLONING-PROJECT of the genuine AP Dial??

Please POST inside this thread...

The reason i ask is because i am not going

to contact the person i know before we made

up our minds (together) how we split up

the amount (maybe about 650,- Euro)

necessary for preordering and prepaying

the dial. This price ive been told about

a year ago (650 Euro) for an AP jumbo 15202ST

dial.

If there are enough interested members

willing to spent an amount to finance the 650,-

Servus J

@rolexfinder

pls be a little bit more precise

about your abilities to replicate a genuine dial

because i might be able to get one - youve got PM!!

i dont want to discuss this here because

the "contact" i have is quite a delicate one,

its NOT beneficial for me to getting in contact

with this person at any time - unless

i am sure i want to buy something and i

have to do preorder and prepayment!

Its simple as 1,2,3 to the readers down

here, that if this person even gets the slightest

doubt that my request/acquisition could have

anything to do with replica-watches

it would be the last time he would offer

anything to me or just mention prices of gen parts!

So please get in touch with me private.

I am willing to get in contact with this person

if this is a "good possibility" to achieve an

even more stunning AP Jumbo rep to the members here.

If theres a possible and neat way to replicate the gen

dial for you Paul, than paying 650,-

Youve been PMed!

I can try to replicate the dial if you have the gen dial. Just gather everyone here who want the most accurate dial for AP.

Are you serious??

Replicate?

By means of replicating the printing/letters or

entire dial?

...ive got to get me some sleep now

I know that a genuine AP 15202ST Dial

is about 650,-

I dont know why does he have to change to source of his parts...

yup... you are damn right.

...and i would be very pleased if not only

few of the AP RO jumbo owners (there are lots on RWG for ex.)

could stand up and take a look on their wrist to

determine which version they own...

it would be VERY interesting too

to hear what our trusted rep dealer can say

and/or confirm about "version 1" and "version 2"!?

Eurotimez/Chris comes to my mind but there

are also smaller dealers with mbk/thai sources.

So... who is able to source the "good" or

better version of the 2?

Or even spare-parts...

Im interested in a spare dial for example.

Sorry Paul

I dont want to hijack your thread -

whoever is interested in

the major differences and the flaws

of the "reloaded" second version

of the mbk/mbw AP RO jumbo

might take a look here:

I uploaded some pics too

Have Fun!
