  1. I just purchased this same watch about three weeks ago. It Is a really nice replication for under $200.00. Im very Impressed to be quite honest. I hope you feel the same Mike
  2. I would think that this would be highly unlikely to happen to a gen strap. Some of the rep straps are of poor quailty. I have a hublot strap that Is about nine months old and still looks new, just like your Omega. Hit and miss In the rep game I guess good luck Mike
  3. Welcome to RWG my Ozzie friend. There are a lot of members and staff here from your neck of the woods, Im sure you will be very comfortable here, enjoy Mike
  4. Welcome to RWG my funky man I really like the big watches. If you are really Into the big boys try a Breitling Super Avenger. I got one a few months ago and I love It. It's about 49mm and 18mm thick. It's one bad mother (watch yo mouth)Shaft circa 1971. Mike
  5. That Is one beautiful watch I love Corums and need to get one before the year Is out, I hope. Please get rid of the Pam In your pic, thanks Mike
  6. Well Oren I hope you found what you were looking for,one can only hope. I know that some people will never be watch enthusiast. Then again maybe you are intersted In timepieces but reps are not something you are comfortable wearing. Some people only want one desent watch and thats It. There Is this little quote that go's "contempt prior to Investigation" I hope one day you purchase a good quality rep, maybe a 7750 or better yet 2824. Then have It serviced and then decide If reps are for you or not. At least you had the good manors to say "good buy", good buy The saying go's "that It Is better to give then to receive" Im thinking that the RWG community Is feeling pretty dam good right about now. Mike
  7. Nice choice I hope you enjoy your new speedy, I know you will Mike
  8. If It's true that Asim Is making purchases while still In debt to other members, unfu%kin believable. Last active? private
  9. Welcome to the very best watch forum, rep or gen. The knowledge and expertise at RWG Is beyond reproach. Many members and staff from OZ, happy hunting. Mike
  10. Thanks Zig, I will remember this, could save a watch. It Certainly cant hurt. Mike
  11. The "simple watch" Is a good thing Mike
  12. Good price and easy no Interest VP. But a three hand quartz would really bother me. That big sec hand tic tic ticking along, no thanks Mike
  13. I just picked up a Reserve Bolt on a rubber strap. I really dont get to excited about quartz watches anymore but some of the reserve Invictas are really very nice, excellent fit and finish. The designs are pretty cool, I like them.
  14. Cracks and crevices could be useful Mike
  15. Thanks for the topic.I have to agree that having a watch that cost several thousand dollars Is Indeed about making a statement. How Important Is making a statement? To some It's very Important, and thats ok. I really dont think about such things. When I was younger I did but not so much now. There are several of my neighbors and friends that drive BMW's and MB. I drive a Infinity M35x. Some think I should have purchased one of the German brands, they told me so. Im very happy with my Infinity and It will do basically everything there cars do. The big difference Is that I saved around $10.000-15.000. I think my car looks every bit as good as there's, alas no big statement. Some think of It as a upgraded Nissan. The bottom line Is I buy what I like and I like many of the reps. The people I have told are blown away when I tell them that Is's not the Gen article. Think about It, whats more Impressive? a watch that looks great and expensive for $200.00-400.00 or a watch that cost $2.000-$10.000.? I have been apart of this community for about 9 1/2 months, I have spent around $3.000. I could have one nice gen but Instead I have nine reps that I really enjoy with a multitude of straps and watch tools. I feel I have done well for my money and It makes me happy. For me It's about the design of said timepiece. If I find a watch that has a great design that cost $200.00 I will probably buy It. I think thats what It's all about, taking joy In something. I have also met some Incredible people here at RWG. I still like gens but I wont spend more then a $1000.00 for one, thats just me. Lifes to short for me to worry about making a statement. The only statement I worry about Is my "bank statement" Thanks for the great topic Mike (ps) I dont want to imply that all people who buy really expensive cars and watches want to make a staement, but I do think that most do for that reason alone
  16. I always thought that the ford Edsel got a unfair bad rap. I think the car Is quite beautiful, always have, go figure
  17. This Is the first time that I have ever been proud to be from Mi. I have grail watches and I have grail songs, this Is one of those songs,cool video, thanks Mike
  18. I would say that with a swiss ETA quartz and a sapphire crystal It's a pertty nice watch for the price. It should last for several years with out issues. The rep straps are not very good, so upgrading would be a good idea. The main thing is that your wife should love It. Watcheden Is a trusted dealer that has been around for years, good luck. Mike (ps) Hard to say when a certain watch will be replicated.
  19. I hope not, I wanted to see the "skin cells" Best part of the video. Mike (ps) Just having some fun Oren, It looks to be a very nice watch. I hope you enjoy It for years to come.
  20. Welcome to RWG Chudd Iz think you will beez a BROKE addict soon enough Mike
