Welcome to RWG Logan. I think a lot of us are overwhelmed when arriving here. The knowledge and expertise is very impressive to say the least. RWG is a very friendly community. So get the hell out of here. Good luck and happy hunting Mike

to RWG. I"ve just recently become interested in Pams. Just orderd 196 daylight. Go to the Panerai area. There is a ton of great info there. No matter where you end up on this forum, you will learn something. Good luck Mike

To RWG. Good to have you here Mike

Welcome to RWG. Looks like the bug is taking a big bite out of your bootay. These reps are seriously adictive I thought peeps were joking about this hobby and it's adictive nature. I just had my heat/water turned off. Summer comming and who realy needs running water? I mean come on, watches were here before indoor pluming and the other luxryies that we realy dont need. And as far as having a roof over your head, over rated. Welcome to food stamps and that wonderful goverment cheese To your next rep Mike

I was feeling pertty good about this new hobby of mine, buy after reading this , Im outa here

I cant be 100% sure but it sounds like you did the same thing I did. The AD in my area told me that I should have removed the links from the clasp not the lugs. Bracelet is runined. I found a desent strap on E-Bay for $25 shiped. It's a heart breaker thats for sure. Hopefuly you will have better luck. The final results may not be the same. Good luck Mike

Sounds good to me. Thats what I would probably do to if in the same situation. What can I say I love these reps to, just orderd a Pam 196 daylight(chrono) Nice watch.for $279 /w ss band. I also orderd a strap for it from Heoric18. Unbeliveable strap for $108. Live and learn I suppose. Good luck on your Breitling. Mike

All I can say is "I know how you feel" . Something similar happened to me. I swore I would have nothing to do with reps again. I dont feel as bad now. When buying a rep, any rep, It's a crap shoot imho. I will always love watches. All kinds of watches. I have for years. Its just a little frustating when dealing with prouducts thats are not the gen artical. The good news is that people buy these reps and can and do enjoy them for years. I have been looking at other watches in the $100-300 range. Haurex,Seiko, citiizen, etc, there is a lot of realy nice watches out there that are not reps. They are also afordable. I just like keeping my options and mind open. Sorry about your Omega I have the same watch with the chrono(quartz) Good luck Mike

Very nice watch. I have a tag Formula 1gen. Not the best Tag I bought my first rep about six weeks ago. The Omege po chrono quartz. It is a very nice watch. I have just orderd the Pam 196(7750) I felt the same way as you about my first rep. The quarts is a great way to get a nice watch and not spend a lot of money. My seconds run @ 6, subdial. Since I have been a member here at RWG I have been thinking about autos vs quartz. I have to agree that the mechanical is what a real watch is supossed to be, moving parts. I have a Omega my father gave to many yrs ago. The watch is about forty yrs old. I think it was serviced once. The watch still keeps good time. It is being serviced as we speek. IMHO a quarts as a every day run around watch cant be beat.(no pun intended) But it well never have the look and feel of a good auto. Thanks for the pics, where it well Mike

Welcome to RWG.Indeed a big Yes to what my friends have already said, you sir have just hit the JACKPOT. Please take your time and you will find that special watch and a lot more. Mike

Those watches are some Bad mother f (watch your mouth) Isaac Hayes (circa1971) Shaft.

Hey whats up Slainte. We been waiting for you, your late Sorry to say that the info here is not good. It's F king fantastic. Hang on tight Its one helava ride. Mike

Welcome Lilly to the RWG. I can I get you a cappuccino? maybe a Biscotti. Settle in and enjoy this awsome community. Arrivedreci Mike

Man you just never know in this business/hobby. I just visited Aoobuy.com and my virus warning shield came on. The reason I was courious about this site is Fakemaster had given someone connected with it a good review. Im not 100% sure but it had something to do with FMs purchase of a Pam. To his credit he took him/her off the list but would not recomend him/her per say. . Not in the traditional sense of a recomendation. Good thing, because man you just never know in this business. Mike

Toyota and Timex are releasing there new joint venture soon. There calling it the toyex or the Toytime? I cant remember HE HE He He Hehe he Mike

I think the Omega 45.5 is 22mm. I know the 42mm is a 20mm. Sorry I cant be more helpful Good luck

Hang in there Bruce. In time it will be worth it I had some problems with a Omega(42mm)(20mm lugs) SS bracelet. After about three days I found my answear. Dillagence is key. Mike

Bob Marley So lets roll up a spleef mon. Welcome to RWG. The only thing I can say is try to avoid the bling factor. I see people do this all the time. It comes across like there trying to hard. Go with that understated flying under the radar look. Bling has it's place but not in the workplace Imho. I think you have the right idea. Wear the watch, not the other way around. Good luck on that promotion Mike
