This shows that this company has balls...It defies a whole status quo by making its own movement (but it's not the only company doing this)! The problem though from now on is that rep factories will have to adapt their replication techniques around the new movement (when a watch with that mvt comes out), otherwise the new rep production will be a dead give away, if it's based on the old Valjoux mvt Correct me if i'm wrong...!
Well i would love to correct you but...does Daytona mvt replication ring a bell???!!!

Personally although i am not aware of the Belgian law system,i do not see any kind of criminal implication of the OP.Robbie mentioned that it is kind of like the case where someone breaks in but steals nothing.I think that in our case the OP didn't even get caught breaking in.The package was never delivered to him,he did not go to the post office to get it,he did not sign any kind of receipt related to the package.All they got is a parcel containing a counterfeit product (addressed to him by who btw???)without any solid proof that
1)The OP was aware of what was inside the package
2)The OP is related in anyway with the sender
3)The OP really indented to accept the package
and most importantly
4)The OP was caught red handed signing and accepting the reception of the package.
Perhaps i am wrong but this is my opinion guys,thanks for listening to it.

some of the guys in here could perform miracles on the "Ferraris"...you know...just to enough to give 'em that gen look they ought to

Sorry mate, I was up all night working on this and actualy had some work to go to today (a nice change).
If there is no way to donate via PP (my bad for not asking them when I called about this days ago) You can donate at any Red Cross office in the world. Just nominate that the funds are for the Aussie fire appeal and they will get to where they are needed. Scan the recipt and send it off. Any more problems just Email me at ozfirefund@yahoo.com
It sounds like Onze may have the answer. I shall go ask.
Col.
EDIT: Onze has left the building and I have PM'd him and will get back on this ASAP.
Thanks for your time Col.,i know that you are on a tight schedule here mate.I will try to find a way to make the
donation.
BTW just like Lani I will not be entering the raffles.I wish all the participants best of luck although the real winner
here is humanity and solidarity.It feels great to know that there are still people from all over the world out there
who really give a damn...
THANK YOU ALL GUYS FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART.
Cheers

Hello there Atreides...interesting nickname you got...Ancient Greek....King Agamemnon and his brother King Menelaus of Sparta were the sons of King Atreus of Mycenae, of the House Of Atreus.Hence they were called Atreides.
Are you in any way related to someone from Greece?
BTW welcome to RWG
You will love this place!!!
...or maybe its from Dune!!!
Bump!!!

You can use paypal on the redcross link, no worries.
Could you please help me on this?I can't find anything relevant in the Australian Red Cross site about PP payment,i am
searching since the start of the fund raising.
Thanks for your help

Well for what it's worth i have e-mailed them once 3 or 4 months ago asking them about a Daytona with secs at 6 just to test the waters.I told them that i have a Daytona with the same mvt as their daytonas and the seconds hand at 6 was very erratic,so i asked them to tell me if this problem appears
on theirs as well.They replied within 24 hours and they were honest enough to say that if mine had the same mvt then the problem will be on their Daytonas too.
This was my first and only contact with them.
Cheers

I would like to personally thank all the prize donors as well,the admin team and all the RWG family for this great
opportunity they give us to contribute with everything we can.
Especially for us,the EU located members who are way far from this country and any possible way of helping,ithis is a great way to help this beautiful land and all the people who have been affected by this tragedy get back on their feet again.
THANK YOU GUYS

No John there will be no organised attempt here basically the fires that did the most damage all started from only 3 points, it was the weather conditions that turned them catastrophic.
Ken
Thanks Ken...i can only hope for the better...
Please keep us posted anyway you can my friend.

John I remember the fires in Greece vividly, truly a shocking blaze, started if I remember correctly, by developers.
Ken
Well Ken for the average citizen's mind it was an attempt,and a quite successful one i might add,to take our
minds away from the real problems that the goverment was up against at that time...some they say it was a
cover up op....some they say the fires were set by foreign agents in order to clear the ground for the huge corporations
to proceed with their industrial building and get away clean with the environmental organizations.But somehow in the way
things got out of control and led to disaster with alot of victims...
Anyway... there are a lot of conspiracy theories still going around...
I guess no one really knows the truth but ....
The only certain thing is that this disaster was not a work of one or two irresponsible,crazy obsessed with fire pyromaniacs...
-
I was reading a report by a psychologist in the paper and he said that contrary to popular belief, in most cases, the people who light these fires do not suffer from pyromania or any other mental illness.
They are basically ordinary, albeit irresponsible, people who just felt it would be cool to light a fire and see how far it goes.
Ken
What is the info you get from the news?could this be an organized attempt?it does not seem like the work of an irresponsible individual or two for that matters...
-
I know how you must be feeling ...
I remember tears coming to my eyes when i was watching my
country's natural beauty being burned down to the ground.
And the victims of the fires...the emotional tense was huge...
I feel you offshore...hope things get better down there...
John

Ken this disaster brings back to my mind the fires we had here in Greece 2 years ago.
They almost burned down to ashes the cradle of the Olympic games..The archaeological
site of ancient OLYMPIA...not to mention half the mainland Peloponnese...
Our heart is with you right there at the land down under...

Count me in as well guys...
We need to maintain our humanity and join forces
in situations like these.

Well the problem is that i does not work for the Official Rolex!!!
I think that they don't provide support or service or any kind of warranty
for the PH models.And although i am not a big fan of the ProHunters i have
to agree that the Black Daytona is beautiful...
