  1. You should know that Rolex does not make any watches with a PVD finish. It is just an aftermarket mod.
  2. I have a hotel-style safe and pile all my watches of value in there. No insurance.
  3. Love it on that strap! Nice job, AJ! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Andrew / Trusty has been extremely reliable for me.
  5. Of course, he usually couldn't dicern the difference, except if he compared the two side by side. Most people who buy Rolexes are only concerned about the status. Most people who drive Porsches around here could care less about driving.
  6. Good advice, but I have a 10 year old gen Bell & Ross Pilot with a high polish bracelet that doesn't look as bad as this watch does after 5 days.
  7. This is usually good advice, but this guy is a rep hater- a Beverly Hills IP lawyer.
  8. I got it with the Asian 2836. It is surprisingly smooth and sets up and winds almost like a swiss movement. Rotor noise is inobtrusive and very minimal. I'm very pleased with this watch.
  9. The Lume is pretty good. It's a blueish green- not super bright, like a Seiko Monster, but lasts all night.
  10. I did get it - I love it. Not bothered by the Bezel at all. I don't know what I'll say to my friend who has the real one. It's a really nice bracelet. One interesting thing is that the clasp is all scratched up after just a few days of only desk diving. I wonder if it is softer steel. The steel looks very, very bright in general. Best, Andy
  11. So, does that mean you wouldn't ask for a different one?
  12. Am I crazy, or does the 6 o'clock indice marker look crooked? Anyone see any other glaring flaws? Thanks, Andy
  13. There is a difference between "Super Lume", which is what our Trusted Dealers have been selling on certain watches recently, and "Superluminova", which is a trademark of the Tritec company. Superluminova is the nuclear-bright lume on most high -end gens, and is very expensive. The "Super lume" on most of these reps is moderately brighter than the crap rep lume we have been plagued with for years.
  14. I'm here and lurk on Repgeek, but hardly ever post there (or on here for that matter.) The color scheme makes RG too hard to read, and the people seem much more obnoxious and egotistical than here. This one is the best.
  15. The used gens are fairly reasonable. I just priced one mint on a strap for $3800.
  16. It's bad enough to wait for a watch when it's already been released. It's killing me!
  17. The Rotor may be loose. I've had 2 watches arrive that way.
  18. Another vote for Acetimer.com - Very nice Watchboxes for the money!
  19. Will the Clark 16660 insert fit on the SSD? Is the Clark Pearl OK, or is there a better option?
