  1. If you cannot afford it its too much. 30% of a 50.000 watch is too much
  2. Pearland, TX 77581 (Green Tee Terrace) can be recommnded. Particularly if you like to play golf.
  3. I am doing well. I now have some time to spend on these fora, been quite active the last month or so (RWG.cc and RWG, Repgeek and RWI). Got the new IWC 3777 and a FM long Island and also the "new" AP diver datewheel, while having sold 4 watches...so kind of into it again but not spending the big money
  4. Great to read your posts one again and your stunning watches!
  5. So when can we expect the datewheels to be shipped/arrive?
  6. Great watches. Even spectacular ones, but that name Grossmann, Tutima and even Glashuette (glass cabinett?) sound so massive and teutonic.... why not Brünnhilde?
  7. Aqua Terra 150 M XXL Small Seconds 49.2 mm today
  8. This is just a great looking watch! A super fast SEIKO without a date window is the best kind of SEIKO.
  9. It should be the other way round...eh It keeps good time, winds well, powers reserve is good, date is correct every morning when I wake up. It is still early to tell.
  10. Micro Review by DrGran Ordered: IWC0339 - IWC Pilot Chronograph Ref.3777 SS/SS Black V6F A7750 from Trusty Description: V6 Top Edition in SS Bracelet! This is V2 Edition Special Upgrade! At first it seemed it was not from V6 factory as decribed, but rather from the ZF factory....... ...but Trusty assured me it is indeed a V6 and that they just put ZF QC stickers on it as they have these lying around. Rep of a rep situation!!! Very odd, but its the replica jungle and who knows!? Now the 3777 10 watch: First impression is that it is about the same quality as the best 3777 01 from 2014 (the version with triple date window). AR: OK Dial: OK Hands: OK Case brushing and rounding of edges: OK Crown: Could be better logo quality (more crisp), Crown, tube and its threads likely a weak spot on this, lets hope it dosent strip... AR: OK Lume: Could be better even if it lingers quite some time (not worth taking the photo) Bracelett: Correct type (and it is different from and more masculine compared to the 3777 01) Clasp and IWC engraving: OK and deeper engraved IWC than on my previous one Microstepper: OK Caseback: Looks very good and engravings deep enough Movement: I have not opened the caseback but it runs on time for the 2 days I have worn it, the reliability of Day and Date change might be an issue.......its a replica Wristshot: Conclusion: This 3777 10 is gen-like to me. This is the kind of watch I like. I find the bracelet comfortable. This will likely become the watch that I will wear often. My daily beater, if it keeps running on time. NB! My very handsome 3777 01 replica from TORO in 2014 for comparison. Notice the triple date and the different style bracelet (this watch will be sent off for service soon):
  11. Wow! Not seen that previously. Like the day at 12. 01/01 now thats a first
  12. This Z factory just arrived from Trusty, strangely I suspect it is not the exact same watch as in my QC picks....we will see...anyhow bracelet looks top notch...are V6 and Z factory still one and the same? Sale description said V6 factory: V6 Top Edition in SS Bracelet! This is V2 Edition Special Upgrade! BTW its on my wrist but its nighttime here now so cant take good photos yet...
  13. Posted by Mikey2008 on Repgeek Matching Datewheel Font to watch series (diver/chrono) This will get asked many times in the future, so this guide is to help you choose a datewheel font to match the serial on your watch. Not sure it's 100% correct but a good starting point. If in doubt search online and check out gen pics! A Series - 1972 to 1975 B Series - 1976 to 1979 C Series - 1980 to 1986 D Series - 1987 to 1994 E Series - 1994 to 2000 - Classic Font. {'Beast' Blue Baton} F Series - 2001 to 2005 - Classic Font. G Series - 2006 to 2010 - Classic Font. H Series - 2011 to 2014? - Classic Font / New Font {Switch from Classic to New Font, so both fonts OK} I Series - 2014 to 20xx - New Font.

  14. There are as so many I want
  15. These are truly great. I only have the cheap replica.
  16. Bt how different is this really from this V6? Thinner date only or?
  17. More wrist time for the Deeep Date Mod Chrono. Not so accurate I know, but it feels so massive on the wrist
