In Absentia

It is not danish (I am), but swedish. And in the posts Masticore linked to above, some of the other guys (gen collectors) seem to be pretty [censored] off by this guy...

Unfortunately not. But if you find one, please let me know, as I'm considering the same watch Og tak for din besked som jeg lige har l

They sometimes do. If they do, it normally says so in the description and often the boxes etc. will be pictured. Some dealers also sell boxes separately

Really beautiful collection. Thanks for posting these Neil! /me starts to look for a TX500

I like my sports model very much, but that brown dial sure is tempting. So many watches to consider...

What? Does that mean I'm the only one who already has one? Now that you mention it, I think the tattooist might have mentioned, it was the first time ever, he had written "Officine Panerai" on someone's forehead...

That is a FANTASTIC collection. Thanks for the inspiration!

I rotate about six or seven. No problems with any of them so far

Another All Black vote. But Angus, I really like the yellow one as well!

Thanks for taking the time to update us - even from the hospital. Hopefully the group buy has nothing to do with your heart problems. Hope you'll get well soon!

Congratulations Pugwash. I'm considering one of those myself, but just want to see how the special Bond edition turns out

Yes congratulations. I'll join the 1,000 post club later (probably in a couple of years...)

Orange PO 42 mm (4th edition). No camera, though. Looks like an Omega day so far...

I am able to - and looking very much forward to it

Many thanks to you Victor. This was excellently organized. I'm looking forward to the watch (and I have some Asian 7750s already and they work like a charm)

About 6 months (apart from the group buy TAG Heuer Carrera I'm in now)

6 years ago I was travelling in Vietnam and Thailand with my wife and a couple of our very good friends. One day we stumbled across a watch market... I bought two Rolexes and an Omega Seamaster that I thought looked FANTASTIC. I found them in a drawer the other day - compared to what we have now they were nothing. And they were WAY overpriced - but I liked them and used them on a regular basis the following years (actually two of them still work, so they couldn't have been THAT bad). I just liked the looks of them, but weren't THAT much into watches - until about two years ago when I found a scam replica watch site on the net. I liked the idea of replicas that close to the original a lot (the pictures turned out to be originals BTW...). Fortunatly, before ordering anything, I found the old RWG where I saw some pictures of the (at that time) brand new PAM196. Which I bought. And the rest is, as several of you have said, history...

I remember your name. Sorry to hear about the divorce. But welcome back here!

I do it all the time as well - like the rest of you. Have seen a lot of Rolexes and Omegas, fewer Breitlings and only a single Panerai

I'm definately interested as well. Thanks for organizing this vmena.

Another vote for the Sea Hawk

Hi Neil. I'm sorry for you - my condolances

Just beat me to it, jonthebhoy. But somebody please give me this guys number, because he is digging mighty fast and my garden needs drainage...
