I think Rob read my thread about the north pole and got all exitet and eventually stuck up there.....btw missunerstood has not answered my questions either... http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showto...mp;#entry186915

I love OMEGA but its only the second inhouse movement So does this mean that OMEGA is in reality more a brand name than a true horological company? is this why they need james bond to push their lovely looking watches?

That Spring Drive movement movement is a dream FYIthe spring drive has no "28.800 bph". The movement is supposed to be as smooth as is possible so if it has a beat it is not visible to the human eye

its quite a watch and it is certainly something special. I like the name and the shapes used but find the case to shiny and fat for my own use. Still its Art. Alain must have found his inspiration in Miro or similar art "architecte horloger," Alain Silberstein has the closest ties of any contemporary wristwatch designer to the Modernist movements of the last century -- including Cubism, Constructivism, and the German Expressionists. Since 1987 he has been producing his unique wristwatches under his own label, all in limited series, with a total output of less than 3000 watches per year. He now has his own art gallery in Paris to display his varied works, the Galerie Alain Silberstein.

Good one Birdman it looks like Trevor types before he thinks.. BTW this could be the most important thread in the history of RWGjr....keep up the pressure g.

So you dont have a winder? it will do wonders for your Automatics Besides, for the manual wind (Asian VENUS 175 made by Sea-Gull) that I do not wear reularly I leave the crown unscrewed and wind it every other day regardless if ill use it or not....So no unneeded wear on the crown tubes there....obviously i screw it down before wearing it

There is something worng with that clockwork....

1 - First rep bought on: RWGI in 2004 it was a VC retrograde calendar black dial (the version lacking the XI at the subdial with day of the week) 2 - River 3 - No! Well sort of I actuall wore it by chance last week but I gave it to my daughter to wear (the display glass fell out of hers version with the correct XI at the bottom bought from KING in 2006)

ML is a littel feminine but they are so beautiful

Well said and obviously we dont think that all dealers are crooks. Note: any phtographic likeness with know dealers is not intended

I saw NICK reading a post and tried to get his attention besides he got so few replies the first time around. Welcome back Nick

scam, hole, shaft, drilled......

@section8 Yours is my favorite so far and its funny too Another one from the same film: French Soldier: You don't frighten us, English pig dogs. Go and boil your bottoms, you sons of a silly person. I blow my nose at you, so-called "Arthur King," you and all your silly English K-nig-hts.

Sure you are not talking about the old RWG? Anyhow its very nice to have you and your sense of humore here Regards Gunnar

Nice to see you again nick212 hope life is good for you. Did you manage to sell that collectable clock of yours for a reasonable price? Regards Gunnar

You are a saint silix It looks like this forum is serving its purpose...buyers and dealers working together to forge a better and more honest representation of replicas. Well done so far in this thread. I have been collecting replicas since the fall of 2004, seen a lot of things that are good (and bad stuf like experienced loads of replicas loosing screws, display glass falling out, unexpected faux functions, poor finishing of case and clasps, missaligned dials, loose movements, gold plating peeling off and the list goes on) and I am hesitating longer and longer before buying a new replica...maybe its better for me to simply start buying genuine watches again. Truth is replica QC is probably a bigger issue that needs to be looked at than just the plain missrepresentation of some movements. I like dealers like TTK (Neil) that inspects every single watch himself before sending it out. That is probably the best QC we could hope for these days. Regards Gunnar

sure looks like it right now. Lets hope the dealers read this information and modify their descriptions accordingly...." beautifull looking junk 2892-like movement"

Thank you RG. I will keep this in mind. Best regards Gunnar

Its truly a shame if these "2892" movements break down and can not be serviced. How widespread is this phenomenon?

are we jumping to conclusions here? when is an genuine ETA no longer an ETA?

Lets look at the bright side, we can use this as an opportunity to save some money

there must be more differences than the studs
