  1. I always look...I am waiting for the opportunity to say the secret code word: "jetmid". One of these days, it will happen...
  2. Good instruction for the ROLEX GMT II bezel HERE
  3. I get photos from a spammer named "juny" on a fairly regular basis and his/her pics are identical to Andrew's pics (but without the trustytime watermark). "Juny" also told me that the pics were his/hers.
  4. Now all you need is a new case back (and more importantly...the watch!!). You are that far away!
  5. Isnt member marickavelleyboy (Im sure I spelled his name worng) an ausie watchsmith?
  6. Josh told me couple months ago that the factories stopped making them. So you will have to get lucky in a private sale. Good luck. And if you find one, you can get a genuine dial HERE
  7. Sam...point is, we are a community and we should keep our dirty laundry in house...end of story. It's not the money, or the lack of communication that should matter. As everyone else has said, paypal disputes impact the dealer and then other dealers and then the entire community. Never paypal any amount of moeny that you are not prepared to lose! That is an unfortunate part of the game we all play. If you get hosed or think you are getting hosed...bring it to the community -- not paypal! (@neil...kisses sweetie )
  8. I have been lucky so far too. (knock on wood). But if/when they finally break, I am going to transplant route and buying a swiss 7750, which makes more sense to me than paying almost the price of a swiss 7750 movement to service the asian.
  9. Unreal...a complete assclown. (but a dealer fund? surely you jest category5...)
  10. ya got references anywhere? Just curious...
  11. After reading your posts and interactions with many memebers of this forum, I have concluded that you are simply and unquestionably a complete [censored]. (I'm sure I violated a forum rule, by calling you an [censored] (which you most certainly are!) so I will accept my punishment accordingly...[censored]!.) Good day...[censored]!
  12. So true... Very good points. (and to clarify, I did not (and do not) take issue with dealers selling modded/serviced watches. That is great IMO because we dont have to waste time and money sending the watch out later.) But there is a big distinction between "best" and "perfect". "perfect" has one meaning...and one meaning only. And quite frankly, it is a meaning that will never be realized in this industry.
  13. I joined to see it... (I dont regret joining, but am wondering how I willl have time for 4 forums, lol). And after seeing it...to be perfectly honest...I cant say that I "love" it. But kudos to all you who put time into it and who thought outside the box to come up with a uniques black and red dial that represents your forum. For everyday life, i.e., work, I will stick to my reps and my RWG watch....but the RWI watch certainly catches the eye...
  14. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....breitlinggggggggggggggggggggggggg
  15. So what model watch did you guys use for your watch?
  16. I disagree...just my opinion, but an opinion nonetheless. Granted, none of the more active members who have been around for more than a couple weeks will be persuaded by the term "perfect", but with the influx of newbs who come here on a daily basis thinking they have found the place where advertising will be upfront, the term "perfect" is misleading. Aside from that, I would think dealers would refrain from saying "perfect" because the anal WIS will quickly go through and show each and every reason/flaw why the rep is in fact not "perfect". Counterproductive advertising to a point... I do not doubt the integrity of any of our dealers (even Neil). I just happen to thinik that "perfect" is over reaching. And I certianly do not think that so-called language barriers are the issue. Our dealers know darn well what the word "perfect" means to a forum filled with anal-retentive rep experts...and they should know what the term "perfect" means to a bunch of rolex-hungry and crazed newbs.
  17. ya opened yourself up for this... www.rolex.com (sorry but it's true...)
  18. Come on Neil...that is a chrono avenger...not super avenger. You should know better...
  19. Wow, where to begin. So many...so little bandwidth. I have had alot of crap, but mostly from when I was new. I have knowlingly bought many fanatasy models because I liked the way they looked...so I wont count them. Worst by far (for me) was a shitty panerai power reserve that was brass with very thin SS coating. I saw pink metal all around the case upon dleivery. The crown was razor thin. The date background was white. The power reserve was in worng spot. Just bad all around. But the fact that it was advertised as SS really pisses me off.
  20. There is no perfect sub (other than the one sold by rolex), nor is there any perfect rep...period. And I think our dealers should know better than to make that claim...especially on these forums. Several dealers seem to be using words such as "perfect" lately. Horseshit.
  21. nice...Breitlings definitely are the best IMO. I just love the look...all the different looks of their many models. Grossly underappreciated brand IMO, which blows rolex and panerai out of the water...
  22. I think mine actually has a navy blue dial...I ordered black and EL is pretty sure he sent black...heck my wife thinks it is black too...but I am pretty sure it is blue. I like it regardless...but may consider a different color strap now. For anyone ordering a blue GT, the color of the blue is very dark...
