I'm trying to get hold of the PAM194 in titanium that only watchonpo seems to have.

Is there anyone based in Japan who can help out with Watchonpo? Sadly, I can't read or write Japanese and am getting no replies to emails sent to them. Since etaworldgoods went defuncy, they've been tough to get hold of...

I think Silix has them too... but $455 on the watchmark site with a genuine polished ceramic bezel is not bad in that case

That's what they say when I want to use credit (from a while ago) to get that .... trying to bleed more cash out of me ? I can't afford it !

Anyone have links to Josh's or Andy's sites, as it is not obviously found there.... Wanna compare. Thanks.

The dealer in question maintains that's last year's price and that the website has not been updated in error....

The big question - is it easy to swap an ETA 7750 with the low beat Asian copy?

silix will have the same stock as the others but at cheaper prices. apart from the exclusives. but then he has the best version of the VC Overseas If you're unsure, just ask if it's the same as the others and he'll give you an honest answer... he always has to me over the past couple of years or so.

The mods are unpaid volunteers (who do a great job, by the way) and don't have time to police the sales section. Perhaps there should be a banner/warning right above the title on each selling page with info, eg. please do searches on "modifications" and research to find true values. please search and read reviews on sellers/watches before purchasing. if you don't, it's on your head, caveat emptor.

After all that time... and all the walking it will get... hopefully your B low J ob will be as good as the R eal B low J ob in clearing the dial of dust... sometimes high prices denote quality

I came on the scene in the last 3-4 months of RWG1 (before RWG2 began) so luckily missed out on that ... but I did remember EL's exclusives, as well as the asking of each dealer and getting different quotes. Only silix (and Paul) had a site at the time which gave transparency in pricing, while each other dealer would give you differing prices via PM/emails. Anyway, wasn't EL "exclusive" with the first IWC 3717s? And the "Cartel" were exclusive with the first bunch of Big Bangs (and still are on the very highly priced ceramic bezel ones, I believe) and the IWC Cousteau Aquatimer... this premium pricing still seems to apply here, unless it is someone like silix, who seem to keep prices down on their "exclusives" like the good version of the VC Overseas, etc. I remember back then each dealer seemed to have their own exclusive... so you'd go to josh for his PAM036 or ceramic J12, or EL for his PAM127 or andy for his 42.5mm 4th gen PO etc

Will my watch get a R eal B low J ob first? I know that'll be charged for too, I presume? And then the watch will be too tired, it will need a stint on your pillows... Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...

And right now is Craig David - Rendezvous (DJ Premier remix) I can't get enough of those DJ Premier beats.... he has a James Brown mix tribute as well. The remix he made for Janet Jackson's "Together Again" completely transforms the song... so different... and haunting. The 8gb on the memory card on my phone is different to the stuff I keep at work...so I have some salsa, merengue, metal/rock, hip hop/rap, r&b, techno, house, pop etc... I even have the Vengaboys on there...! Next up... another DJ Premier gem: Hustlin' Daze with Donell Jones

Rush - YYZ Justin Timberlake - Sexyback Chayanne - Salome (remix) Natalie Imbruglia - Torn Chemical Brothers - Hey DJ Shakira/Wyclef - Hips Don't Lie Jessica Andrew - Even Angels Fall Green Day - American Idiot Infernal - From Paris To Berlin Cascada - Everytime We TouchDa Buzz - Last Goodbye Morandi - Angels Avril Lavigne - One Of Those Girls Black Sabbath - Paranoid Yeah, I like lots of different types of music.... but no rap/hip hop here because I'm at work!

What's wrong with Snoop Dogg???? Either way, they're both dogs Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...

Awwwwww

Looks like it's been PVD'd aftermarket? I don't remember it originally coming out as a PVD. The caseback will tell you if it's RXW so ask the seller for a caseback photo. Otherwise looks like RXW... they originally came out for $1000 (I think?) but the value went up as they were sold out quickly. A lot cheaper than a genuine PAM127 and will hold it's value compared to a rep.

What if they take your kettle and call it black ?

doesn't josh dabble with fish too ? (and no this is not a leftfield joke about chinese, triads, GTA, fish etc)

And don't forget to try the infamous monkey brains in China ..... you probably haven't had time to look at the off-topic forum

On the off chance you do, I'll take a titanium PAM194 ... honpo has never replied to my emails But seriously, you're right, you'll be lucky to find these good watches... but keep looking and good luck ! And enjoy the time away

Congratulations... lucky guy

How will you put on your watch ? Sell your legs and kidneys

That's not Chris Rock, that's Chris Tucker !
