Damn.... I should have been up there, then again, maybe not, I'm a Democrat

The guy under me IS a republican and likes white dial watches...

Simply beautiful... Love your write up and that's a doozie of a first post!!!

I love the texture of the closeup brown dial shot... I am especially interested in doing a luminor case in my 3d software, but I can't seem to get the lugs and back correct :|

keep up the great work!

:thumbsupsmileyanim:

G-Shocks are great! I had one of the first out in the US back in the 80s. it got lost somewhere in time but I sure wish I had it now...

As for reps, I haven't seen them, but I don't know why you'd want one as they're cheap enough

Right now, I'm looking for a GW-5600BCJ and would pay just about anything for it

Funky date mate

Unfortunately the next 007 has been put on hold indefinitely due to money woes at MGM.

Now, that's bad news

I'm interested to see how well it is replicated, but I can honestly say that this is the one watch I would never want to own.

Saddle on a monkey? Pig in a party dress?

C'mon guys!!! I tried on the gen last week and the watch is just ridiculous

What's the attraction? What are you seeing?

schwiiiinnnggg

Damn! I'm no Rolex guy, but that's a fvckin cool watch!!

Damn!!

You could wear it as a headband like jimi hendrix

Amazing watch Rolli... First rep of this I've seen... Love the rubberized calf, I'll need to get one of those

Have a look on Paneristi... there is a plethora of straps available there in every size, shape, combination, and color

Off the top of my head, you can great straps from these guys/companies:

HK Tan!!! (paneristi)

Mignatta

Dirk Grandy (on paneristi)

Drew at Europelli.com

There are so many more, but above are some of the best of the best... Have fun, but be careful, it's addictive

sorry for the double post guys

Cannot find OEM handset. Don't like the paint on DSN handset. Tried polished Ultimate handset from 164, don't like it. Decided to brushed the DSN handset, I think it matches well with the brushed stick marker on the dial.

Really nice job you're doing there

Yes... the hands are quite special on the 91, the are sprayed with something...

The crystal also has a very special AR coating, like no other model... almost a purple, but will change color depending on the angle I think due to the refection off the anthracite, which is beautiful stuff!

Here's a shot of mine:

Nice

Just like an instrument... But you wouldn't really wear it outside your jacket would you?

Love your 203A :thumbsupsmileyanim: A++++

Can you tell us about it?

The 201A I bought just a bit ago is so beautiful, inside and out... looks gen to me from all angles.

One thing I noticed was the perfect lack of the bright glow to emulate aged tritium... Maybe a watch this age wouldn't glow at all, but I'm happy with a little so I know what time it is in the dark...

The other night, I was at my favorite Melbourne strip club... The hands and dial gave off a blue tinted glow, one I've never seen before. It was almost a purple...

Now normally, my watches glow the standard green color when I'm at these sorts of places (black lights and all), but this is definitely a different hue... I kinda like it, actually, but I'm sure it's off from the standard T glow.

Would anyone know what causes this?

I just got the 201A back from my watchmaker today

He put another gasket in the crown face and now the lever snaps in perfectly and tight!!!! Also got it waterproof tested and it came through with flying colors!!!

Thanks for all your advice, it was most helpful!!

Beautiful watches By-Tor... I know what you mean about the SMP Pros... I have my gen Bond on my wrist at the moment, my Ti Bond chrono got stolen years ago

That SFSO is screaming at me too

Off topic, but in regards to your avatar, I saw Rush in a movie theater in framingham MA back around 1979... what a concert!!!

Much nicer with the thinner caseback... I wonder why they make them so thick

As soon as someone buys the 9b for 10k... everyone will follow and get their panties in a bunch whenever a 9BL comes out, and the flippers will raise the price to 13k.... and someone will buy it at that price too... This is why we're all in this situation now.... greed promoting greed.

I'll stick to reps and frankens from now on for these stupidly priced gens... I'm outta there

My three favorite wallets are pretty pricey for what you're looking for, but they last much longer than others less expensive I've bought...

My favorite is my bifold LV natural leather, which has mistakenly been washed but now has a beautiful patina...

Next best for me is another LV in black Taiga:

Last, but really nice is the Gucci bifold in a beautiful dark green:

Oroton makes very good quality wallets and you might want to look here as well:

Saddleback Leather Company Wallets

sweet watch ... panerai prices are fvcking ridiculous... But if you like it, go for it, cuz you'll always be able to recoup your 10k

So, is the Grey Themes supposed to be titan?

It looks super nice
