lovepanerai

I would look at either the Canon EOS 400D / Rebel XTI great review here: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canoneos400d/ or the Nikon D40 or D50 - all of them are well below the $1000 mark

I think another way to look at this is the fact is that it is hard to replicate any watch that doesn't come with standard movements - meaning ETA parts. Yes they have repped the AP ROO, Rolex Daytona, etc, but they are either inaccurate copies or work for [censored] - sorry for my french here

sweeeeeet nice work

Started with the Sinn U2 this morning and than HURRAY call from my AD that my Panerai is back - picked up a beautiful Riva Strap while I was at it and for the next couple of days I won't wear anything else!! enjoy

I am sending my watches of to The Zigmeister tomorrow and he told me that he would ship the crystals to HauteHippie directly - I don't know exactly when The Zigmeister will get to removing and sending them, but you can count on 5-7 from me.

Hey Rolli, once more great pictures - and man you are sick are you ordering a new Panerai every week?? cheers LP

that's what the Chinese replica industry calls it??? WTF!! An ETA2892 is and ETA 2892 if it is not than call it something else for crying out loud - the one pictured above in Finepics post looks like a total piece of junk worth about $5

the big advantages of a SLR are: - interchangeable lenses and filters - well you get screw on filters/adapters for some point and click ones too - bigger imaging sensor, which doesn't mean more pixels but more space for the individual pixels resulting in less noise and better image fidelity and detail - fully manual mode and more settings - some higher end point and clicks have that too If you consider now that you can get into a Digital SLR for roughly $600-800 it might well be worth the investment

very nice and unbelievable what sort of pictures can be taken with a camera in a phone - the 89 looks much better than I thought it would. Now if they only would add that stupid marker at the 9 and udpate the GMT hand thanks for sharing and the excellent picture comparison.

thanks Rolli, I appreciate you taking the time to get that shot for me - I guess I am going to have to get a 222 myself cheers

thanks M8 for the flawless transaction cheers

I am certainly no Rolex expert, but the dial print is wrong - the 1000 in particular - nice rehaut though

I certainly know how that goes

surely you meant Pre-H series had T SWISS T on the dial

The Aquaracer Chronos are nice too but I would really like the 2000 Aquagraph, I doubt though that they will be able to rep the 2000 Aquagraph with the large minute stop hand. The Twintime's are OK but not a must have for me...

Hi Rolli - great pictures as usual! I have been contemplating about getting this one, but couldn't get myself to pull the trigger. I was concerned that the Asian movement might crap out on me and that there is a white/silver border around the date. Would you please let us know how it is holding up and it would be great if you could take a closeup photo of the date. thanks and cheers LP

thanks Angus and yes please we need the ultimate carbon strap old 7750v1 - I do have a couple of Swiss7750s lying around and am thinking about having it put in

this is one of 2 TAGs that I like - the other one would be the TAG Monaco (Steve McQueen edition)

I had no idea the PO is that heavy - or is the 187 that light??

just with the rubber pictured - I just put it on my scales ;-)

Welcome over here! I would buy a used one since non of the reps are coming close

it is actually not that heavy...201.28 g

just noticed your avatar description - Dune rocks!!! Nice watch and photos - as usual

that's exactly what it feels like - good for us deskjockeys though as it constitutes a work out that you can always have with you

agreed and the standard 42mm Aquatimer Chrono is not really my cup of tea compared to the Cousteau - The Titanium on the other hand
