  1. Wow johnnyboy you have great friends! Im afraid i cant beat that, altho some Easter golf will certainly be welcome. So for me its round the golf course building up an appetite, then back home for a big meal and lots of choc Jon
  2. There's just something about Breitlings for me...cant get enough of em! Shame...i cant get on Josh's site for the moment..."bandwidth limit exceeded". Hope you can get some pics up of the Navitimer when it comes...might just sway me! Jon
  3. I am looking into buying this watch, however could someone set me straight on this. Omega Seamaster 085 pictures When looking at the photos i saw that in the 8th pic down the caseback looks like the genuine, but in the next pics down the caseback is now different (and is i believe the omega 087 that King stocks). Is this because the movements are the same, and he couldnt be bothered to take two sets of photos? If anybody's got this watch could you let me know. Thanks, Jon
  4. Nice watch...i had a toss up between that and a Colt GMT...Colt won thru in the end because the Avenger was too big for my wrist. Good too hear someone mentioning the mechanics and not just the look. Good luck Jon
  5. Come on...you know unwrapping it is part of the fun...think of Christmas!
  6. Hey Orazio, Glad to see you have found RWG. It sounds like you have loads of experience in gens...so good luck getting into the reps Jon
  7. You hit the nail on the head there ryyannon. Altho the watches are lovely to source and own, we are also lucky to have a brilliant rep community. I havnt been a member that long, but i have burnt many a good hour just reading posts, salivating over pictures, and generally enjoying the banter. Jon
  8. Im only having one as a 21st birthday present (only 1 week to go!!)...as its a family gift i will hopefully have it for many years to come. I totally concur with the student sentiment...cant wait to get out there and earn a living...and then spend it all on reps! Jon
  9. lol..."its at home"...always a classic! My plan is to stun everyone with the gen Breitling, so then i can get away with wearing some reps with no questions asked!
  10. Amazing...so we have not only saved loads of money, but also have a brilliant talking point (or chat-up line!)
  11. Looking at the reviews of the latest PO (ie Andrews 4th gen)...it seems people are raving about it, so i guess they have it looking pretty good now. That would kill me if i thought people were laughing about my watch I guess whenever i go into a jewellers im gonna have to wear my gen watch!
  12. lol yeh...i think this hobby could cost me a lot over the years...but hey, you gotta spend it on something.
  13. Thanks mossanti. My family is joining together to get the Breitling, so it will always be special for me. I really like the look of the 4th generation PO from Andrew...but it seems he sells them as soon as his shipments come in! But anyway, i cant wait to start my collection...could be a slippery slope!
  14. Yeh i totally agree...thats why i plan to start with an Omega and see where it takes me! They look amazing but people dont really associate them with fakes.
  15. Hi everyone, just like to say this community is damm good and i hope to become part of it in time. In the process of researching watches for my 21st Birthday, i came across the huge replica industry. Altho i will be getting a gen watch for my birthday (hopefully a Breitling Colt GMT with Blue dial), i have become obsessed with getting some replica watches! I would be possibly looking to start with an Omega, possibly the Planet Ocean or the Seamaster Pro Blue "Bond's". My biggest concern is that people will be able to tell they are replicas, and also i feel that having a rolex at my age would be obviously fake. Any thoughts would be much appreciated. Sorry about the long post! Jon
