It's difficult to help someone in a PM. Personally I prefer quality, so I would go with luckyyy (and I have once)... otherwise when I first joined here (RWG1) I read a lot, and the first person I had help from was The Zigmeister (I think). Everyone else since has been helpful with MBW and watchmaster and Omega (by-tor).
Almost every other week there is a new thread or re-activated thread asking a question about who has the best sub and it gets boring.
I admit when I first looked at reps it was to get a r*l*x to impress women, but the more I looked at them, the more I looked at the (relatively) obscure models not as popularly well-known, like Yacht-Master and GMTs and Explorers. And it went on from there to other watches, and the rekindling of my love of watches from years ago. My addictive buying has seen me hoover up lots of watches in half a year (and blow all my savings and wages).
I guess R*l*x was my gateway drug!

Just being quick, i have to get back to the office in a minute.
I've never seen a carbon strap in person...
Anyway gotta go!
-
I prefer the 028, as it has the same hobnail dial, but the 2892 movement with SOPRAS power reserve module does not have to be modified to add the running seconds at 9.
Maybe if a chrono movement (7750?) is used... perhaps, but can the power reserve module be added on to this to make the 222?
Won't come cheap...
-
Bring the carbon.. and most non-standard leather straps ... I've never got any before so it'll be interesting to see how good they really are!
-
Forgot to say RXW Plasmir Milgraph is a 40mm watch so you'll need an appropriately smaller strap if you want to try it on with a strap.
I'll try to remember to ask my sister if I can borrow her new digital camera.
-
If you have any in titanium, bring them as I want to get some of them eventually.
Bring the Radiomir, and the Submersible
I havent considered the submersible yet so it'll be interesting.
I'll probably bring the RXW and a special guest watch
We'll see what I decide, but no PAMs as everyone's seen them. finepics has my 2 daylights, and the 001 has a crown guard screw dropped off, leaving the 029 and 063.
I'll bring another brand as I think you, finepics and clive will have the PAMs covered

I am perfectly willing to answer any questions in a public forum for the benefit of everyone, but I am not your [censored] ... unless, of course, you're paying me.
Almost everybody has a price

Standard response to unwanted PMs:
Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...

During my last 7 years in powerlifting boards I have never met a person who can't bench press at least 400 pounds. Single ladies (they used to call them "old maids" in the old days) always say that in dating boards all guys are tall, handsome and intelligent... but when they meet them in person they're all nerdy, fat bastards. That's probably why they're looking for chicks from a dating board, eh?
I haven't tried that yet cos I don't want to get that bad reaction!
As for the PMs, you could just delete them without replying, or tell them to PM TTK.

I was going to send it to The Zigmeister for service, relume and pusher fix... but now he's gone for the summer
-
ETA 2893 is the ETA GMT movement, however Omega don't use these movements, even though the parent company owns both. Omega has true GMT functionality - adjustable hour hand, not GMT hand.
Therefore an ETA 2893 movement still would not be accurate.

If there is a profit being made, then this ia very shady business indeed.

A different agenda here I see...
-
You live in Calgary? I may go to see a friend there later in the year
-
It'll be his new limited exclusives that will really get the board swooning...
-
nope, its the well known, very long, german bratwurst
Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...
-
Doc, where are you at? For some reason I have the feeling it's Australia, if so, the $25 to send back may be correct?
Just checking as it would be unfair for everyone to think you are being overcharged for shipping (irrespective of whether you should or should not be) unless you really are being overcharged.
-
It's that well known German sense of humour that gets girls into bed
-
maybe it's the gung-ho nationalistic nature you get over there? you have to allow for local customs...
Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...
Seriously, hope you get your watch back and it is in the same condition. Good luck.
-
Great, what watches will be on show ?
I'll bring the RXW, you may want to bring a screwdriver and a strap if you want to try it on and it's too small though.
I assume finepics and highflyingclive will also be in attendance?
-
By the way, Slay, can I borrow some money
Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...
-
What's up with you Slay, you are so nice lately? Are you getting some?
This is the new improved Slay, version 2, to go with the new RWG

I was just thinking that would take on a whole new meaning if uttered in the showers down at the gym
Ken
That's what Ooooooooooooooou means

Only a couple of days to go, any concrete plans? Location, times? I'll be able to leave around 6:30pm or so ... from here should take around 30 mins or so.
