  1. The gold serti sub was a gift...so the choice was already made for me...but I have to comment on that Omega of yours....that thing is beautiful ...where did you get it? I went to the Omega shop the other day as I am really starting to love the Omegas....the PO Chrono and the Broad Arrow GMTs and Speedmasters...all very nice! I left with a big book of all the models...so I am trying to catch up as I don't know squat about the brand.
  2. I just knew it was and I am so thankful ...ever since I saw her in that 80s flick "The Rocketeer"....oh my...beauty and brains. :wub:
  3. Congrats on the new watch....the gen is great, no rep TT can come close to the gold rolex uses...mine oldie but goodie: ...and be prepared to get asked a zillion times "is that real".... I tell 'em, "ya, $30 bucks down at the flea market...."
  4. Thank for the post, it will come in handy for sure as I've FINALLY signed up for the TZ watch school.....so I am knowledge thirsty noob at the moment! And for some time to come....dear God what have I DONE!!!! Rule number 8 will be my mantra....as I am one impatient SOB
  5. I would bet that of those 2k+ "members" , a large percentage are just drop ins, folks that get a quick login so they can check the place out....I would be curious how many of the 2k+ members are actually actively participating around here....
  6. This is a 'TEST'. The test follows the pictures. If you fail the test DO NOT feel ignorant. I failed too. Test Question: What was the name of the aircraft? :2::2::2::2::2::2:
  7. Season greetings to you and your family Rob and best wishes in the New Year.... cin cin prost cheers :ltongue:
  8. Thanks for the post...i can't stop drooling now....and slurrrrrrrrring my speech! That watch is too gorgeous! I know I have broken at least one of the 7 deadly sins...thou shalt not covet....and i will now start burning in hell 'cause i just love that watch. Your video makes it so tempting to pull the trigger. I already email Josh about one but that $1100 dollar price tag is just nuts....come on down to 7 hundred dollar land and you'll sell 'em all---JOSH are you listening?
  9. I thought zig wasn't doing any more mods until after the new year? Is he taking appointments yet? Nice 24A Kruzer!
  10. I don't think you are being picky at all....if that wasn't the picture you were shown....than I'd ask for either my money back or a replacement....
  11. I have the black gator case from TimeConnection...very nice...especially at the $110 price tag...
  12. Awesome Rolli....now I gotta go find a 'fiver' and a 'base".....
  13. Don't think that sounds accurate...I was told by US Postal employees that they can send and insure registered mail up to $50,000. FIFTY THOUSAND US DOLLARS. And speaking from experience, I have already sent out a $4k+ panerai via USPS registered/insured mail....with no problems. UPS/FedEx usually won't insure watches for full value...they will only insure up to $500. Not sure about DHL but prolly the same. BTW, its not illegal to ship a rolex into the US....you just have to cough up the duty for it....i have never had a problem with parts either.
  14. Hey Bruce....welcome. Now hold on to your wallet....'cause you'll be reaching for it more than you'd like!!! You prolly already know that... cheers

    Proud Dad

    Very nice to hear your story....my daughter turned three last month...her favorite expression so far... "oh my GooNess" Best thing on the planet is being a daddy...didn't think it would ever happen.... cheers
  16. 30.113 took me 5 tries though
  17. @by-tor Love your Broad Arrow...may I ask where you got it from? ...please...
  18. I love watches...all of them...old, new, rep, gen... Reps allow me to get some very nice pieces that otherwise I would just have to drool over them in the glass display case. I have had my share of gens and still have a few....have slowly been selling of my gen panerai's after discovering this forum...no need to spend $4k plus on such a simple watch that is so easily repped and with the same friggin movement as the gen... Not going to put down gens...the fit and finish is in another class...i finally bought a gen Rollie TT Yachtie for my wife last week...a gorgeous watch and it matches up to my gen TT sub....no rep, that I know of, can come close to the TT rollies's gold...and I ain't wearin' no fake gold NOR would I ever expect my better half to do so... Then again, these rollies might get sold as i am getting sick and frickin tired of being asked...."uh, is dat real"....STFU and leave me alone! I'm babbling again....bottom line for me....cost and quality of the reps are why I buy.... cheers....oh, and they make me look so cool....NOT!
  19. MBK AP ROO on choco gator ....still on my wrist....
  20. thanks Pug...methinks I will have to give IWC a go.... good looking rep....
  21. 88 for me....lots of travel here as well and the gmt function is nice. thats my vote....gen 88.... but personally, the only gmt i want now is the gen 233....no more cheap a s s Unitas/ETA based gen pannies for me.....our reps are just as good....don't think a real rep 8 day movement will be coming out anytime soon... i'm drifting again.... get the 88....you'll love it.
  22. Argggh...Freddy stop rubbing it in on us poor saps that can't get a DW vintage 6263.... .....oh and nice photo!
