  1. So! That is the little green guy who maintains your diving watches Seriously nice photo and its a great watch that PO g.
  2. Its sure is a fantastic looking watch The seconds at 9 O'Clock is the little extra. Size looks very good too. g. and maybe it is worth saying that the chime is sadly lacking in this replica (and all other repeater reps I know) so there is just no way you can pull this of as a genuine to anyone who knows what a "Minute Repeater" is all about and that is not the looks but the chime...but what the hell the looks and size are more than great on this IWC. Very desireable
  3. More tales of outageous projects from uncle Bob up in Artic Disturbia....I love it g.
  4. I have had my Frank Muller Long Island Crazy Hours-white dial since march 2005 Bought from Andrew (aka trusty, aka the guy who does not know anything about movements) for about USD100 in 2005 (spesial best VIP customer price just for you...). Fast and safe delivery as always and a free pen too It is certainly an interesting watch - a novelty and a must for any collector who likes crasy stuff - It can give you the attention few other watches can if you are bold. Why bold? Reason is that you have to tell (be bold enough to tell) people to wait for the clock to "strike" the hour-when they see that hand jump 5 hours forward to the weird but mysteriously placed but correct numeral they are delighted - its a sure winner I like the jumping hour mechanism a lot I like the silvery white dial and letters spread in a crazy way I think this is the most distinguished and desireable of all Frank Muller watches It is not a perfect replica but then there is no such thing - on the negative side is that the watch is now missing a screw (1 lug screw fell out and is now missing....ok! you have heard me complain about screws in the past so I will move on) the hands and glow is not quite correct Mine has Asian automatic movement and it runs a little fast, strap is OK buckle is Ok and the back side is OK pictures are cropped versions of Andrews original pictures Regards Gunnar
  5. Welcome Adam Nice to have a guy that knows a lot about watches and how they tick onboard this ship Regards Gunnar
  6. Wow! I am already dreaming love that "OMEGA SEAMASTER 300 VINTAGE FROM 1964" g. And even has this JLC one
  7. I like those VULCAIN reps reg. Good post g.
  8. Great looking Paul Newman Daytona - Eddie Lee's Manual is not a Lemania Version it is a VENUS version g. (the Lemania misconception is the hardest myth to kill on these sites......)
  9. Great post Dave this is one of the best approximations around. Regards Gran
  10. Hi Dave Many greetings to you and I was glad to find a number of posts by you here on RWGjr. I am also glad to read that things are going forward for you that things are better. I have missed reading your posts a lot and a part of RWG is missing for me when you are not around. In addition to you rya, neo, nick212, demsey, ozoloms, BLADE and others are sadly not to be seen around here very often if at all. On the other hand a larger number is still around posting and that is making it worthwhile being here (+ my interest in watches, clever newbies and the entertainment are important factors too) You are my favorite "Texan"..at least you are my favorite person that used to live "quite close to the high school I once graduated from back in the 80s". Time flies and so do I. I will be in houston around july 28th this year and I very much hope to meet you there so i can tell you all that has happened since you were active on the old RWG. I also had a depressive period as of late but lucky for me it was short and rather quickly cureable. Lots to tell you. I sent you a PM hope to hear from you soon. Best Regards Gunnar
  11. Gongratulations and celebrations BB From Gran mansun is right on the spot regarding royalties.....
  12. Enjoy I wish I could come and join you it would have turned into quite an evening but its a flight away. Drink for me and have an enjoyful evening JTB. Be sure to tell Neil that I am waiting patiently here for his return and that I love him Regards Gunnar
  13. I will not try it again but that does not man that someone else could not make it happen. Someone who loves RWG and has direct access to the factory could do it. The EOT forum has found an concept that is interesting. I guess this diver is their 3rd collaborative project. http://www.rhombustech.com/c3/ g.
  14. The hope was that the RWG Collaboration I it would be the first in a long line of RWG watches. The watches were to be homages of different well known and desireable watches. Not replicas but homage watches. The Collaboration I watch is a homage to the OMEGA railmaster:wub: I guess it is still possible that at some later time a new RWG watch will be made...just look at the banner at the top of this page...but I guess that that is only a dream. I love my RWG watch (even if it is a bittersweet love and much grief has been involved....) Regards Gunnar
  15. Exellent pictures and watches BRES3000 and I love the lume on that ARKTOS. Thanks for sharing this with us. It makes me think better of you Bes happy Gunnar
  16. How pretty you certainly got exellent taste in watches sye46 Regards Gunnar
  17. The watch looks classy and expensive with that pink gold you will get a lot of attention beacuse of the GOLD even if i personally find steel or white gold even more desireable Happy timekeeping Gunnar
