    Stamps?

    Well first you should learn all you can about stamps....and their value Do you have stamp albums stored away at the back of the closet just gathering dust? Has those albums always remained a
  6. Given exclusive RWG knowledge is designed to generate maximum awareness during a certain period of time. As we constantly receive increased and abundant knowledge about replicas, our members will be given priority in receiving the knowledge we feel might be horologically beneficial

  8. Great to see the anme Longines mentioned again...looking for a Longines watch is what brought me t5o fing the old RWGsr and collecting replicas This diver has the look of the Longines and the spirit of an JLC...a retro-looking beauty indeed. http://img443.imageshack.us/img443/3382/de...eestrenofe8.jpg
  9. Its a rep of its own and its just so 60s in its style and mechanics.... But seriously Fiyta and Ebohr also Have their Tourbillon Now Fiyata and Ebohr are famous watch companies in China, they have very good quality but they only make quartz or simple mechancal watches. Anyway they don't make any movements. Now the first time, Fiyata has a coaxil tourbillon, as shown, is it a sea-gull movement or not? http://forums.watchuseek.com/showthread.php?t=103491 http://forums.watchuseek.com/showthread.php?t=105935 The China domestic watch brand sales figures which may be of interest to some. August 2007 data for top 20 brands http://www.cfw.com.cn/main/yjbg/2007...4_213133.shtml More info: For the benefit of those non chinese readers The top four brands by sales (no of watches) BRAND Ebohr 16.54% Tianwang 13.19% Rossini 13.07% Fiyta 9.58% By value ($) Ebohr 20.95% Fiyta 20.22% Tianwang 19.45% Rossini 18.39% Seagull is at no. 11 (by value) 0.73%, not within the top 20 by quantity. Since Ebohr has bought over Rossini recently, this would mean Ebohr/Rossini has a large share of the market of domestic brands (39% by value). This is remarkable considering the short history of both companies.
  10. My personal view after years of replica collecting: Its much better to have a great geuine watch than a replica. Much better feeling (in the long run) to wear the real deal if possible ...but its all up to you to make your own rules Happy Timekeeping Gunnar

  17. MMMMmmmmmmmmmmmm......there is actually a lot of sense in what your are saying but what your advocating could be intrepreted as something far from a free marked economy....actually you ara advocating a sustainable economy? I like it . You say "Borrowing to consume has got to stop" and obviously what you mean is that spending more than one can afford has to stop (right?) and your correct in that the low interest rates have to be raised within the next 1-2 years or we will all go to up in smoke On the stimulus package I still think that the negative spiral in the stock marked and in peoples minds have to be reversed before things can get better
