  1. ok so i have managed to waste about 25mins of work time trying to seach these borads for a post about the correct color of breitling double ar coatings... can someone help?? what is the correct color of breiting ar? cheers!
  2. ... then you want a fiddy
  3. i have the SS version. trust me it wears MUCH bigger than the 187! the rehault is very deep.. creating the illusion of a very big/THICK watch. i have never worn it because it looks soo much bigger than the 187 on the wrist so i have always popped the 187 on. its avail just between friends pm me.
  4. this watch was all over the back cover of my girlfriends latest AVON (ladies makeup) catalog: they even call it XL! super crappy mille miglia knockoff
  5. @ savage_here - I think you missed something... the post is about the shoe style not the shoe brand and that they were made in italy and not china. they may very well fall apart soon esp with all the walking I do... I have shoes that I have paid up to 3x these and they fell apart/wore out rather quickly... instead of thread crapping... please post some great shoe links or contacts! cheers!
  6. @cpt390 Great job with the photo edit! if you wear a suit and tie everyday your belt should match with your shoes.. throw some matching cufflinks on too! and your suit hanky should not match your tie in material or in patten.. its best to go with white or a matching color to the tie but not the exact material/pattern. i picked up these shoes in brown with white stitch also... genuine made in italy(kenneth cole).. how often do you find shoes(anything for that matter) not made in china?!
  7. all made in Italy... were going out on the town tonight... dinner, show, drinks..
  8. NO replica is water proof. maybe trustys 'perfect' sub is serviced.. therefore it is your best best for a waterproof rep. but really your best bet is to get a cheapy and have them check for free at the mall and maybe tighten the case back. esp. if you are a newbie. you may have your hopes up too much @ $400.00 and your expectations may be too high... what if you don't like it.. etc.. whatif you don't like the crown,pearl,cg... etc. as a newbie stick to <200USD for awhile. unless you wanna jump right in on my 1665 up for grabs w/ vintage folded bracelet. :-)
  9. its a nice product but... once again.... for a newbie stick to ss! get a TT in 6-12 months when you have the time and desire to mod it, and dump $$$ into a project watch
  10. yes. refer to FIVE posts above this. :-)
  11. with pp new monitoring and blocking and checking and cross referencing.. i am reluctant to accept pp on any posting listed in the trade section for fear my PP may be blocked. i do alot of business on *bay and to have this blocked or pp blocked would not be good for me. are these fears justified? what about you guys are you still gonna accept pp on members trades? cheers.
  12. no.... rather: just look at the membership tallies from 2yrs ago to 1 yr ago to Today on the boards! lots of newbies pollluting the transactions with little or no collectiong experience and no business savy.. why do i say this.. well this hobby started out with Experienced Players in the field.. jewelers, watchsmiths, and true hobbiests.. so we knew what we were dealing with and could fix minor problems ourselves or source a fix or source a part or source a part and mod a fix.. with all the new ones with no exp in the field just looking for a "GOOD FAK*" to fool their buddies it has muddied many of the transactions and the small dealers cannot and should not deal with that.. and these fakers should go back to the scammer sites. just my .02$
  13. cheers! have fun and watch out for the dingos.
  14. gone from posting but not dissappeared.. if you r trsuted member here and have history of business transactions contact them. rep game is more difficult nowadays esp. if you are not china based. just look at the membership tallies from 2yrs ago to 1 yr ago to Today on the boards! lots of newbies pollluting the transactions with little or no collectiong experience and no business savy.. why do i say this.. well this hobby started out with Experienced Players in the field.. jewelers, watchsmiths, and true hobbiests.. so we knew what we were dealing with and could fix minor problems ourselves or source a fix or source a part or source a part and mod a fix.. with all the new ones with no exp in the field just looking for a "GOOD FAK*" to fool their buddies it has muddied many of the transactions and the small dealers cannot and should not deal with that.. and these fakers should go back to the scammer sites. just my .02$
  15. i have a problem... i'm at 30 peices now and still not satisfied... can we form a WAA chapter with meetings?
  16. for all the negative posts paul over at womart gets i happen to like his descriptions best... seems to be more thorough and more accurate than some of the other dealers listings without any BS to muddy the listing with him: ETA = gen swiss ASIAN = COPY sapphire = sapphire mineral = mineral crystal
  17. ETA xxxx = Genuine Swiss movement of worldwide origin Asian xxxx = Copy movement of dubious origin examples: ETA 7750 ETA 7753 ETA 2892 ETA 2836.... ETA 6497 ASIAN 7750 21.6k, ASIAN 7750 28.8k, aka ASIAN 7750B1 ASIAN 7750 28.8k with GMT function ASIAN 6497 ASIAN 7750 28.8k daytona movement with running seconds at 6. if its a modded Genuine Swiss movement then: ETA 7750 for daytona with running seconds at 6 in any case it is MHO that: ETA = ETA ebauche, Genuine Swiss movement from any of the worldwide ETA factories. ASIAN = COPY above and beyond these words the dealer has latitude to describe the functions, the buyer can ask questions the dealers will get the point if many buyers ask the same questions and will modify the listing appropriately. as for crystals.. self explanitory.. if NO AR = NO AR .... not light AR. AR can be single or double plexi glass, mineral crystal, or sapphire case = material SS, Ti, or gold Plate (how thick?) 1:1G = takes ALL gen parts. therefore MBW 1680etc are not 1:1G because movement will not work/drop in. not a true 1:1. 1:1 = dimensions fashioned from genuine article, some parts may fit -some may not. example: item: Breitling Chronomat Evolution -version 3 movement: Asian 7750 or ETA 7750 crystal: sapphire, double AR case: 316L SS 1:1
  18. update: just sourced: - 2892A2 @ $99USD on its way (new) - i have no idea what im gonna use this at the moment, open to suggestions... - 7753 @ $369USD on its way (new) - for franken breit projects.
  19. you could get a gen but it would not be a Gen Diamond Bezel BCE($5-8kUSD). best best to get a watch like this is to get the rep BCE. get a gen dial or diamond dial and then also add a gen BEZEL.. that way the pearl is right.. now they sell a few kinds of gen modded bezels.. you can get the gen bezel with CZ or Diamonds.. and once you go that route you can even get color Diamonds or stones too.. rep: 350 dial: 100-200 bezel: 699.00-1999.00 why is everyone bustin on this item? and im not talking about the price i mean the diamonds?? best breitling sellers on the @bay are the modded diamond bezel breits(GT,CA,A,SA...etc). everyone has a TT sub, a SERTi sub or a daytona with CZ or MOP or TT or gold.. so why not breitling too?
  20. check this thread boys... i think some of you might have missed it.. Corrected Super Avenger spyed still its rep... BUT the BEST SA yet... by a l o n g s h o t . cheers
  21. surprised a newbie know who el even is... none finer than mr sunshine.
  22. just a reminder that the DW font varies from model to model. :-) which one(model) is posted? not only do DW vary but also dials.. for example: i have seen at lease two diff gen SA dials.
  23. gen 7750 sounds the same (although some are better, some are worse) and also has a heavy rotor so sometimes even with the gen you notice the winding as it swings while wearing... the gen 7750 also has the same date change restrictions so the movement does not jam.. as per my breitling owners manual even. cheers
  24. heeheee they using the panerai font finally on the gen swiss 7753 watches... just not in a pannie this time ... why 'o why could they not get this date font on the pannies ... any of them really! oooow bait and switch.. the asian has correct PANNIE FONT! swiss 7753 has stock font. but why o why can we not get this asain 7750 font on any of our pannies!!!!!!
  25. woohooo I have seen these guys twice in NY. -Carnal Knowledge tour -Balance tour ..not sure what the reviews are gonna be on this.. this time out... its gonna be an older crowd for sure... it will not be the sold out arena tours from years ago..
