Lebron James is wearing this watch on the cover of GQ this month (the US version at least)

please elaborate...

I'm not sure about where to buy fakes, but ray-bans aren't even all that expensive. Go to eyesave.com. their prices are pretty good... especially on ray-bans (ususally about 30% off). I can't imagine fake ray bans being very good quality or that much cheaper than the real thing

Sorry if this has been discussed before, but does anyone know if there are plans to release a non-top gun version of the Top Gun V2 (like the doppelchrono, but without the second chrono pusher)? I love the watch, but just can't get over the Top Gun cheese factor... haha. I think it's a much more attractive watch without the logo engraved on the side, and with the all-white chrono hand.

i switched to mac about 2 years ago and have had zero problems since then. it's definitey more expensive, but well worth it.

pretty sure you're not supposed to hand-wind A7750s

could you post a pic?

The new aquatimers look terrible compared to the slevin, etc. I think 'anustimer' would actually be a more fitting name... haha. seriously though, the new aquatimers do not look like they should $4000... not even close. I don't know what iwc was thinking when they designed these

Thanks... that sounds a little more realistic.

for the life of me, i can't understand why gen AP's cost so much. Don't get me wrong... it's an amazing watch. But 60-70K? really?

are you sure the dial is supposed to have grey circles? they look like reflections from the lighting to me. Look at the bottom part of the minutes subdial @ 12...

I recently put a pre-order deposit down for WM9's sea dweller that is being released soon. Everything I've read on this site has lead me to believe that WM9 is a reputable dealer with great quality stuff. After reading through this post though, I'm not so sure anymore. Should I be worried? Or has their quality improved over the last 2 years?

i was wondering the same thing...

He may have gotten scamed out of $50 bucks or so, but most people here get scammed out of hundreds of dollars on a regular basis. Look at the new IWC ceramic top gun rep... $500 for a watch with a cheap asian movement that barely works? give me a f'ing break...

This pic has singlehandedly made me want a big pilot. It's glowing so bright that it almost looks like white lume... amazing

Guys, I'm relatively new here, but I have spent a ton of time browsing the forum in the last few months. I've noticed that many people have made comments implying that they wished they could take more professional photos of their watches. I dabble in photography a bit and thought some of you would find this link interesting. It's a list of cheap, DIY lighting solutions and how to build them. I think #3 and #8 would be especially helpful for watches. http://digital-photography-school.com/diy-...l-photographers

Speaking of the ManU limited edition big bang, does anyone know if there are plans to replicate it?

i thought you said the lume was only mediocre? looks pretty good to me...

the dollar was worth dirt compared to every major international currency earlier this year. It's about time we got some buying power...

Has anyone bought this PVD-coated watch from Perfect Clones? How is the quality of the PVD coating? It doesn't look too good in the pictures. http://www.jpc8118.com/pn00401-marina-swis...6497-p-793.html

Which type of dial do you prefer? I have never seen a Panerai watch in person and am curious how they look. Also, for those with experience, do the sandwich-type (111h) make better project watches? It seems that they would be much easier to relume because of the multiple layers.

full time? if so, that's awesome I'm an engineer for a patent law firm

hey guys, Does anyone know of a place in the Washington DC/Baltimore area that will service reps and does quality work?

Personally, I would be careful about blatantly showing off a rolex (even a rep) on the subway of a major city like Paris. You're probably much more likely to get robbed at knifepoint than you are to get laid because of it.

If you find someone in maryland to service your watch, could you let me know? I'm in the DC area and am looking for someone as well. Thanks
