  1. It's a nickel plated 2486 iirc, the slowbeat one. I've never seen rep 'swiss' nickel plated movements. I don't know much about the datewheel, apart from the 3s and 6s are correct; if that's something PT did then it may very well be the PT datewheel, as I think the case came from him.

    The Members from whom the watch came from are fairly highly regarded, so it's unlikely it (the crown) was mis-sold to me. Also, the coronet is perfect, and the crown/tube gasket system is exactly like the gen, and it opens and closes perfectly. Thanks for your concern though :).

    There is texture to the lume, but it's not too much. When I fish out the proper camera I can take some macro shots, and shots of the clasp and endlinks of course (they are rep btw).

    EDIT: here's some pictures that you requested, including one for myself ;)http://imgur.com/a/CCgLp

    my personal favourite;

  2. Some member here has a vintage piece on a black stingray. It looks very good in deed.

    And if they weren't so damn endangered I'd love a great White strap for my great White, but the moral and ethical cost is far to much for me to consider this.

  3. Thanks for the kind words. It's a correct beat swiss movement with silver date wheel. MBW dial with The Zigmeister lume and pearl on the bezel. Cartel case ( copy of mbw) and gen superdome, crown, tube, springbars, and correct 93150 bracelet and 580 endlinks.

  4. For people who understand that high quality HDMI cables should cost less than $1 per foot, there's monoprice.com

    hehe i never understood the obsession with premium cables for a digital signal. As long as the 1s and 0s get through the signal is as good as it will ever be.

    of course, you know this ;)

    analogue speaker cables and bi-wiring though...

  5. hmm i hear better stuff can be had at the same price as these monster products :whistling:

    Having said that, I am using klipsch x1's (£20 on amazon) mostly now (portability purposes) and they sound great to me. The bass was a little sloppy, but now after maybe 100 hours of use it's tight and they sound wonderful. The soundstage is better than my shure e4c! More comfortable than my beyers- and the isolation is amazing. Plus, when inserted they sit flush with my ear, so I can lie on my side in bed with them and not notice them.

    at xmas there was a semi-hidden page on the monster website that was selling overstock at cost- iirc the most expensive headphone was around $40- some guy on a music tracker I am a member of bought like 10 pairs and flipped them for a very tidy profit.

    I suppose all that really matters is if you were willing to pay and are happy, and you were and are on both counts, so Mazel tov on the new phones :drinks:
