  1. I went to an AD yesterday to have a look at the Aqua Terra's, I noticed in the window they had the black SMP but it was a quartz version with waves on the dial, and no 007 decor, just a bog standard SMP but in black. I wasn't aware that Omega were going to release such a watch, but of the two I would definitely go for the one I saw yesterday, the waves on the dial and the lack of red decor made it look much smarter.

  2. The reason I got into reps in the first place was not because of price, but because of the terrible attitudes and snobbishness that I found on the gen forums like TimeZone and WUS.

    These individuals have large sums of money, but they argue over the stupidest things like children. These people are mindless zombies who have actually bought into the marketing hype of their perspective brands. Rolex enthusiasts treat their watches like gods, and they believe that all other watch brands are for the 'little people.' They then have long arguments over why Rolex is better than Omega and vice versa. It's just a nasty, condescending atmosphere.

    I much prefer it here where the people are relaxed, amicable, and able to appreciate all watches.

    Being a gen owner too I am a member of TZ, and I can honestly say that I have never come across any snobishness whatsoever, I feel that is a streotypical view we have, so when we witness it, we recognise it as the norm. There are far less petty arguments (none) than there are here.

  3. My vote would go for the SOSF. All round brilliant replica. Maybe the Ferrari Pam 008 would be among it too, but a replacement strap would be necessary. I agree with Andreww too, the SMP is brilliant; granted you get the old one with the Swiss datewheel, but then there's screws in the bracelet.
