we're a crazy bunch, that's for sure
to be honest, i think it is this type of simple fun & joking that makes RWG so endearing -- unlike other watch communities, we know not to take ourselves too seriously

wow -- what a beauty lani
there must be something in the water -- it's the month of the 1655!! a special 1655 from europe arrived at my door today as well
congrats on a great addition

ps, out of curiosity -- is the crystal pressed or glued?
so mbw is making pams these days i'd be interested to hear more about that...

ps, i was going to suggest the modded 10D poopy provided a link to as well
i think a tan strap would look nice on the white dial navi world (such as the one in this ebay auction, although the price from that seller is way too high)

oh, and my list of the top 12 out of the box reps would probably go something like this (in no particular order):
i) breitling skyland avenger (either normal or blacksteel v2)
ii) breitling steelfish superocean
iii) bell & ross 02-93 (updated ss arabic dial version)
iv) rolex submariner (bk wm9 v2)
v) rolex explorer ii (black dial; noob factory)
vi) rolex gmt ii ceramic (correct hand stack)
vii) rolex deep sea (v3)
viii) ap roo black themes (seconds at 12)
ix) hublot big bang
x) several iwc's (after adding double AR coating), either the ingenieur, costeau diver or big pilot 5002

not true actually, there is a ferrari pam that is apparently one of the best out of the box reps, but unfortunately for most pam lovers, it is one of the ferrari models (and therefore dead to me). don't ask me which one -- i wouldn't be caught dead wearing a car watch if you really must know i believe V started a thread once upon a time about which one it was -- you can search that way

a quick response to some of the recent posts...
@zach g, thanks for the compliment; i think the kevlar straps sets of the black themes dial perfectly. sorry, no additional pictures of this combo...
@iheartmktg, thanks. each watch has a story; i can't imagine just posting a bunch of pics -- it would be totally lifeless imho and wouldn't do justice to the watches
@abe, you have PM

oh me oh my!! what a beauty stephane i had almost forgotten how amazing this one was
knowing i have a special 1655 headed my way makes seeing this beauty almost bearable
