  5. Welcome to RWG Mako. All I can say is "be very careful". When the bug bites it wont want to let go Have fun Mike
  6. Good job billy. I need to do the same. It's the least I can do for a community that has helped me so much. Thanks for the reminder. Mike
  7. Welcome to the best watch site on the planet, period. I know exactly how you feel. Kid in a candy store?, absolutly. I had know idea that a place like this existed. Well it does, thank God No matter where I end up on this forum, I learn something new .Sounds to me like your off to a good start. Enjoy your poker winnings Mike
  8. Thanks alot guys for the clarification. Once a noob always a noob, I rekon. Thanks Toad, Just let me get in the mood with some good old Bob Marley. There we go, feel better all ready. Why am I so hungry? Mike
  9. Not as accurate? Toad what you smoken? Because I want some Mike
  10. Im glad your BR seems 2 b ok. I just received my first 7750 movement. I was told to be very gentle with the crown. I hate to change the time or date, In fear of damaging the stem. I guess It's better to be safe then sorry. Take some wrist shots when your bracelet is resized. Good luck Mike
  11. Welcome to RWG. I have a lot of family in the cleveland area. Ten Reps in about six weeks?, Dam. It might be a good idea to slow down a bit. In the short time that I have been here I have seen members burn themselves out. At first it does not seem possable, I know. I have to battle with myself all the time to keep from ording another watch. Maybe Im just jealous Good to have here Mike
  12. Welcome to RWG. It's like being a kid in a candy store. Thats some expensive candy At least you are aware thet this Rep biz can become costly. Try to take your time and do as much reading and research as you can. Toads Noob Guide is a great place to start. Have fun Mike
  13. He He He. Allow me to regress. The gen is $3.700. The rep is around $400.00 Ouch Mike
  14. I know how you feel. I just purchased my first 7750 movement. It's in a Pam 250. As of the past two weeks it is working as advertised. I know that I will have to have it serviced within the next several months. I know that many members have had excellent service from this movement. Then there are members who have not. I think that these movements are better now then they have ever been. I could be wrong. The big question for me and others is "who's going to service it". I am now looking for a watch repair person or watchsmith as it were. I hope to find someone close by soon. Having The Zigmeister do any work on my watches is not even a option any longer. One The Zigmeister and thousands of members, not good. Then again you can always try. Thats the way it is in this hobby, no guarantees. Good luck Mike
  15. Congratz on your watches. My first rep was the Omega Po Chrono quartz, orange bezel. The Omega has been a great first rep. Very depenable and keeps very good time, great choice. As far as the BR, well like toad Im not a big fan, but hey The thing I do want to say is be very careful with your bracelet. I runined mine. I remved the links from the lugs instead of the clasp. If you feel comfortable doing it yourself, fine. If not, dont. I have talked to several members in the last month or so and they said they also had some diffuculty. The AD that I deal with is pretty friendly. When I went in to have my Pam bracelet sized I told him it was a gift. I said I doubt that my aunt would buy me a $7000.00 watch He smiled and said nothing else. I dont think most ADs realy mind doing small things, sizing, battery change, ect. It all depends on the AD and your approach. Some of these smaller mall watch repair shops are also good place to consider. Good luck with your new watches, wear them well Mike
  16. Welcome to RWG. Where in Florida are you from? I lived in Hollywood for several years. If you want to be Informed you came to the right place. The information here is stagering. Happy hunting Mike
