+1 You might also try a Patek chrono or calatrava. JLC also has some very nice dress models. You could also search ebay for a gen vintage Omega for the price of a rep. These are realy cool and very affordable.

I am seriously tired of this sub dial layout. I wear a Rolex Daytona more than any other watch, and I feel that is the only watch that looks good with this layout. Every other watch jus looks like a fake daytona.

Andrew Zimmern wears a Seiko orange monster I believe. I have seen Anthony Bourdain with what apears to be a Tag Heuer. Emeril origianlly had a TT DJ Jubilee. Nice to see all of these guys step up to platinum Day Dates. Looks like the chef stardom is paying well these days. I always liked Guy Fieri as he is the blingiest of all TV chefs.

Glad to hear we have another watch fanatic in South Florida, sorry to hear you are an attorney. Shame about the burglary. I wonder how you could have claimed rep watches on your insurance anyway. Hope to see your collection build again and be sure to attend our next SOFL get together.

Pretty bad rep also. Not as bad as the one in Kill Bill though.

I really like that watch. I would definatley buy the rep and wear it regularly.......

Here's an exchange between me and the bouncer at Liquid while trying to enter the halloween party on South Beach wearing this very watch. Me: Wassup Bouncer: You alone? Me: No got three ladies with me Bouncer: Oh ok (looks me up and down scratches head) Is that shirt velvet? Me: yup Bouncer: You got mad bling (looks down) and gators too? Oh you a real pimp. (keep n mind 75% if men in sobe wear fake pimp oufits on halloween. I just dig in my closet) Let me get you into VIP. Follow me. Had a great night...... You do need the right ensemble to pull this off.

I am surprised they didn't do better with this watch considering all of the previous IWC's were pretty spot on. I was looking forward to this watch, but didn't realize it had a nylon strap. I would prefer rubber or SS.

Looks russian to me.

I'll bet he has a hockey puck and a vise laying around somewhere.

What about your old boss with the yacht? A day on the intracoastal would be nice.

Why not just take the 3 trillion and split it up amongst the tax payers? I'm sure the economy could bounce back if everyone had an extra $30k or so. These $300 and $600 stimulus checks have done nothing. I promise I will do my part and spend it all.

I agree, but at the same time this whole situation has got me pretty scared. I have never seen the US in such turmoil. I don't think the answer is to throw good money after bad. Kinda like being on a bad streak at the casino and continuing to shove hundreds into he wheel of fortune machine. I just know one day it will hit the big one. I feel the only thing the government should be focusing on right now is making banks adjujt peoples' mortgage payments and inerest rates. Give judges the right to modify loans and once people start staying in their houses, paying their mortgages, housing prices will stabalize and the economy will be fixed. The whole mess is because people who know nothing about real estate or finance got sucked into and approved for houses they could not afford. You have to treat the cause and not just the symptoms. The bail out and stimuus packages only treat the outcome of what happened but do nothing to reverse what caused it.

@Lanikai: You are starting to sund like kling, making no sense at all. I have a headache from reading your reply. The cruise wold be fun, but keep in mind every rate is based on double occupancy meaning ether members would bring their girls or would share a room wih other members. I have been on an 8 day cruise and it was too long. I could not stand to be on a cruise for more than 3 or 4 days. We could aways just have poker night at my house. Same basic principles of eating, drinking, gambling but without the boat rocking.

Who paid for the invetro? The ironic thing is the article posted earlier in this thread says she has a Bachelors in Child psychology. This woman is out of her freaking mind. I agree that most of these kids will end up on the wrong side of the law with drug addictions and no direction in life. I wouldn't be surprised to here that DCF steps in and takes the children from her eventually.

Thanks for the kind words. I definatley had a great time. I wouldn't mind having a regular lunch with any or all of you.

Stop posting pics of my watches Nanuq................ I will be showing these at the once annual northern antarctic RWG GTG. It takes place the first Sunday that falls in the middle of the week.

Definately fake. The engraving on the clasp is far too rough.

Ditto. There is also a great watch shop in just about every casino. Get in a cab and go to the outlet mall. Good eyecandy there. If you are more adventurous check out someof the pawn shops around fremont street, but go during daylight. The neighborhood is kind of rough. Lots of gamblers pawn their watches in Vegas. There was a store in the back of the rio or the palms last time I was there had a great selection of AP. The sales lady was all over me. I tried on about $250k worth of watches.

FM Conquistador King preferably an iced out version. I would also like an iced out Breitling Chronomat Evo with ful diamond case and bracelet.

I don't like that dial. Very hard to match a strap. I wonder why dewitt doesn't offer a bracelet.

Kid Rock American Badass

OMFG. That is all I can say.

I have seen alot of Franck Mullers in the last few months, but I am still waiting for a Conquistador King with or without chrono. That would be the rep of the year IMO.
