  1. Thanks Frogman for the very nice review. This watch Is the reason I found RWG. I was looking at some gens on line when a rep site popped up. Well the rest Is history as they say. I passed on the first PO chrono rep because of the sub dial spacing Issues. When I saw this one I got excited. Then I saw the DW and my heart sunk deeper than the DW. The first review I read was Lani's. His review just hit on a few key points with beautiful pics that gave me a very good idea what to expect. I think we need to remember that although we may have the same rep, that rep could have come from a differnt production. The PO chrono I received has good AR, one of the best rep AR's that I have. The lume on mine Is also very good for a rep. The bracelet and where the end links meet the case are about perfect. I also had to oil and sand It a bit, but It's now a very gen like bracelet. The bezel on mine Is not great but not a big issue. I wished It clicked into place little better. It keeps excellent time and everything works as advertised. Although I will have to get a crown and tube one day. I think most of these reps have the striping crown issue. I really like mine and Im going to keep It. But the SDW does bother me, the pushers not so much. I sometimes look at the watch and try to Imagine the date closer to the surfice of the dial. Oh well It Is what It is and I except It for what It Is. I sometimes think that the first rep might have been the better choice. Thanks again Frogman for your time and effort. I also want to thank you Francisco for all the fantastic Infomation you have provided, I have learned so much from you sir. Mike
  2. Stupid monthly fee? If you dont want to upgrade your membership thats your business but to Insult everyone who contributes monetarily ? well thats just bad manners. If not for those "stupid monthly fees" this wonderful place would probably not be here.good luck
  3. Run Bard, run away as fast as you can. run while there still time oops to late, welcome to poverity. Mike
  4. I too hate It when something smells rotten down there. Thats not very nice.
  5. I totally dissagree, your Intitled to your opinion like anyone else but I could not possably dissagree more.
  6. The only noticeable flaw Deniz is the hour markers. But as you will see there not that bad.
  7. Im no expert thats for sure but I hear alot of good things about the wolf winder. It's suposed to be one of the best.
  8. I agree with Antstar, you should buy one Deniz, and maybe get a nice leather strap for It, maybe a nice buckle with the Breitling logo. Maybe one day
  9. I agree 100%. The color really should not matter. Im not a watch winder kind of guy but I have to addmit that these winders look very nice for the money. Im taking a really good look at the 8 watch winder In black laquer for $160.00. thanks for the link
  10. Congratz on the upcomming 1000 post, your a fine member Jkay, here's to the next 1000. Mike
  11. One of the most famous poems written durring WW1. Canadian physician and lieutenant colonel John McCrae wrote It on may 3 1915 after he witnessed the death of a friend. Lest we forget Is right, thanks Ken.
  12. Nothing Is going to be hurtin that crown any time soon.
  13. Can opener,? Hammer? I plan on building a deck on the back of my house this summer,I also like to drink plenty of Ice cold beer durring those hot summer weekends. works for me. (ps) does It come with a first aid kit
  14. RWG Is the only watch forum I have been a active member In. I visit a few gen forums but It's basically to see a certain watch or maybe read a review. When RWG was going through that big hardware upgrade several months ago I tried to become a member at RG. I was going to hang out there until things got back on line here. I filled out the Info and waited for them to confirm by sending me a Email. I never got that Email and I never gave RG another thought. I waited a few weeks and I was back here doing what I love to do Thanks for keeping the record straight. Mike
  15. I agree that It's a mans watch, man oh man Is that one ugly mudder fudrucker
  16. Come on tolis, this Is getting a little bit silly now. Just do what everybody else does. Read the reviews and other Infomation then purchase the watch, It's really that simple. If you continue with all these questions over and over again your just going to [censored] people off. I dont want you to feel that people dont want to help but your question(s) have been answerd several times already. good luck
  17. +1. I have always liked the Flying B but the price can cause one to pause Are the rep straps good quailty? Because If they are that would make the purchase more palatable I have yet to see a good leather rep strap. Im not saying that they dont exsist, Im just saying that I haven't seen one. So this would be a first. I think It also looks nice on the ss bracelet, for $10.00 more thats what I would probably get.
