  1. Looks like that's my only recourse. Like to upgrade for the raffle.
  2. Fake screw bar? I guess I should try sticking a toothpick in the other end and paly with it. I wanted to take the bracelet off the Ultasonic clean her. I did it the old fashion way, toothbrush.
  3. Swapping a 21j mov't. or servicing an ETA clone? When purchasing a rep sometime I wonder which way to go and plan for the future when a servicing will be needed. A 21j movt is around $15 + cost of a movt swap. Servicing an ETA, cost I'm not sure about. Plus parts if anything should break during servicing. Finding a watchsmith qualified to work on ETA clones. Anyone make a purchase choice depending on servicing down the road?
  4. Do you sell to buy or buy to sell? I find it hard to part with a couple watches I have but am looking for a watch. Do you do without as you build funds or just buy the watch and then sell off a couple. Curious how others go about.
  5. The pushers on my Ebel 1911 Discovery are a bit stiff and require a good push to activate. Common?
  6. I noticed my PAM just has 1 screw head. I try to loosen the screw and it just keeps turnng. Stripped or what? Is there a trick?
  7. I did that, on the subscription control panel. I dont see anywhere to upgrade. just shows my current package subscribed to.
  8. How in gods creation do I upgrade from supporter to platinum? I'm on the subscription control panel and find nothing allowing me to upgrade? WTF?
  9. Color me stupid. I found my mistake.
  10. Count me in! A great gift for my troops. Brilliant gesture Wheaton
  11. I'm still being denied? WTF????
  12. Lani, my login is being denied. Not sure what the issue is. Can you provide any assistance?
  13. I was recording an event with my Ebel 1911 Discovery and I noticed when the chronograph's seconds hand crosses over to record 1 minute it does so BEFORE a full 60 seconds. The chronograph minute hand begins to advance at 57 seconds. Is this normal for the A7750? Does this mean the mov't needs servicing? A little perplexed.
  14. An interesting opinion. What concerns me is not the content but the call by some members to ban the thread or member. WHY? Now, I'm new so I might have missed a forum rule that was violated. Just because a few members disagree with another's thoughts and views they call for a ban. I understand people are very passionate about horology, reps, and RWG. To call for a ban because one disagrees with opinions of others is ludacris.
  15. If you like PAMs check out the PAM 00051 (date w/ mag. on a nice SS bracelet, 40mm case) Everyone has mentioned the Ebel 1911 Discovery (excellent watch, I should know I have one). I've always fancied the Rolex TurnOgraph (bi-directional bezel, date with mag.) Case is 38mm, though the gen is 36mm).
  16. Brilliant ammandel! To steal a quote that I read somewhere "This just keeps on getting better...." RWG
  17. Black, def. black! Now put the white gold bezel on her and you have a winner. Blue dials look tacky.
  18. It seems most 42mm Pumpkin PO's I see (including mine) have a dial or bezel that is a little off center (variance of a couple mm's). Mine is a lite version and I have looked at lite and ETA clone versions. Is this a known issue? Are the 45mm better centered? Does anyone sell a 42mm Pumpkin PO spot on centered? I just came back from a local AD and except for the dial being off, dark date font, short hands, no AR, and clasp not being 100% smooth It really looks just like the gen. If you didn't know what to look for (rwg geeks) you would think it's a gen.
  19. Is it coated Ti (don't think ti can be coated)? I guess I mean is it painted to look Ti or is it SS with yellow markers?
  20. Where did you hear that!?!? I heard a true UPO was coming. But I like your rumor better!
  21. This is one tough decision I don't mind! The Aquatimer has all I'm looking for: Chronograph, Divers bezel and inner to boot, Day and Date. I just with the ti version was ti. I have two gen ti watches and love them!
  22. All I can say is, I love my accountant! After paying off the last of my credit card debt and investing, I still have some extra coin! I'm gonna reward myself with a another rep! I am tickled pink! Now do I go for the watch I have been eyeing for sometime (IWC Aquatimer)? Or buy something daring and unique (Big Bang)? Or upgrade my 21j PO to a better quality PO (I fell in love with her and want a quality rep to keep for some time)? Darn money, sure makes life hard a times.
