  1. WOW! Isn't that a great watch! All the so called perfect GT reps pale in comparison.
  2. LOL You can't be serious about that? Ferrari wouldn't have won a single title without him. He brought them back to the top when he came from Benetton.
  3. Don't want to offend anyone here...... But this has to be one of the worst we've seen over the last couple of days. It even has the wrong minute hand. So how off is that? @TTK Don't put yours down in value. I think it's way better.
  4. I mostly agree, but that doesn't look like a Davidsen dial...
  5. Really nice Sub! Where did you get it?
  6. We should give him a break..... Maybe his desktop just exploded......
  7. Sorry..... eight times? @THANOS : what´s this? freak show?
  8. That could be an excuse for starting the same topic three times......
  9. Does it come with a personalized caseback? What does the back look like? Any pics?
  10. Really nice! How would you rate the quality of the bracelet on this one?
  11. PAM111H.... what else....

    Of course the genuine CDG's are nicer. But after all the mods and improvements (well some of them not that helpful.....) to the rep "H"-movement I still wonder when they will get the "OFFICINE PANERAI" engraving right. That would be a HUGE step.
  13. Sometimes it simply doesn't work like it is supposed to..... I don't want to talk about any names here. But this is what I think: A dealer comes up with a complaint about a customer. It takes nothing more than 2 minutes until the first member calls that guy an "[censored]". Then the flame war is starting. Everyone loves the dealer and hates the customer. Even with a mod saying "Wait! Let´s see how this turns out...." A couple of days later.... the so called "scammer" is posting an explanation for the issue. And somehow it's suddenly starting the other way round. "Ok.... sounds ok. Maybe the dealer jumped the gun.... maybe it wasn't that much a scam...." Of course.... excuses for terms like "[censored]" or "scammer" aren't that familiar in the anonymous internet world. So we won't hear anything like that from the guys that jumped so eagerly on with the first day of light. But that's another story. So who wins? I'd like to know how many of "our" dealers transactions go down the drain that can't be connected to this board because they are made with people from outside the forum? Also the thread was started "Fellow Dealers blacklist this guy" but the intention was "Fellow Members flame this guy". So let's give the dealers a platform where they can deal with issues like that. If it really should turn out as a scam after a given time, then it would make sense to go public with that. But IMO it's a dangerous thing to call someone a scammer without knowing the complete story. And that always has TWO parties involved. I don't think the dealers do themselves a favor with postings like that. In the end it could always turn out like "he jumped the gun" and that may inflict more damage to the dealers business than a payment that was meant to be lost. These are my 0.02 Your opinions are very welcome.

    Even on the cheap asian movements the CDG's look much better in person. It's pretty hard to get a nice pic of it.
  15. 40+ hours. Nearly 2 days.
  16. Mail to: gms1968@hotmail.com I think he now even accepts PayPal.
  17. Maybe not THAT funny.... But IMO "SWILZERLAND" on the Bentley casebacks should at least make it into the TOP 10.
  18. Don't start with the anal things like insert and hands.... There are more obvious flaws. First of all the the bracelet looks like a POS. It´s even missing the "Planet Ocean" engraving on the clasp. Case back is wrong also.
  19. As I said already earlier.... I think we will see an updated YM soon from the dealers. Whatever.... I´d prefer the Ubi-dial. Because it would be sth. special.
  20. Seems like some huge demand. I wonder when the first dealer will jump in for a piece of this cake offering a YM with better dial. At least we got them started with less.....
  21. I don't have a problem with WU payment. Especially not if you're taking pics of the dial first and it's on a "what you see is what you get" basis.
  22. If I may add something: This dial should be custom made to fit EL's latest 16622 as we agreed on this one being the closest so far regarding the other important details like CG's, Bezel insert etc. Custom made because I noticed there are some differences in the rehaut angle of the various 16622 reps on the market so far. This should be considered, because otherwise the position of the minute marks around the dial could be wrong. Just my 0.02
  23. I'm DEFINITELY IN for one of these. And I wouldn't hesitate to order another one if it would be necessary to reach the limit of ten pieces.
  24. And even if they cost 2000..... Then I´d still prefer 7 of the new Submersibles over one of these..... DAMN..... that thing is butt ugly.
  25. Looking at the pics it seems like EL's is the one to have. Maybe one day there will be a dial with a better "ROLEX" font. The letter "O" is too round. And there´s too much space between the letters. They can do it on the subs..... so let´s have it on the YM.
