Well... I'd put money on that he's still alive and even kicking.. Where's Reg through these 4 pages?

A spook story that criminals tell their kids at night... Keyser S

I had a video call with Neil on Skype just a few weeks ago... he was still in the hospital but just about to be released because he had improved and continuing rehab... Although I haven't seen him online since then, I would not think he's any worse, so lets not bury the poor guy... jeezus, he's got a leg off FCS

No warm and fuzzies really... I'm not that old LOL!!! I ran across this letter on the internet, and after paying close to $6000 for a new gearbox for my5 year old car, it just made me think... "Those were the days"

1928 letter from a Ford service center:

Great job... super watch and wonderful tour!!! :thumbsupsmileyanim:

Looks gen to me, as I have the gen as well... A word of warning... although this looks like a super tough strap... it isn't. I made the mistake of swimming with it and could never get rid of the stink.. Nice strap though

Welcome Crab! Man boarded an airplane in New Orleans, with a box of crabs. A female crew member took the box and promised to put it in the crew's refrigerator, which she did. The man firmly advised her that he was holding her personally responsible for the crabs staying frozen, and proceeded to rant and rave about what would happen if she let the crabs thaw out. Shortly before landing in New York, she announced to the entire cabin, "Would the gentleman who gave me the crabs in New Orleans, please raise your hand?" Not one hand went up ... so she took them home and ate them herself!

How about Jimmy Fu quality cases?

No work today... so walking around with a tuna can on my wrist:

Other than that... a real beauty of a watch

Don Bamon de la Cruz

Yes!!! Just a nice simple ROO... I'm hangin out for this one!!!

Damn that's a beautiful piece!!! I just can't get by the pusher guards... if there was something like that without them, I'd be all over it... The factories sure have lifted their game with the Survivor!!! Quick question... How are the guards retained? are ther spring plungers at the base or something like that?

again... if it walks like a duck...

+1 HK Tan straps are great... and a very good price as well.

I thought the a factory in China was working on a rep of this... does anyone know about the outcome of that? I would really hope they are working on the new 44mm 1950 models... they are so sexy!!

I thought AP was the watchmaker alignerd with Alinghi

Well... you know what they say... if it looks like a duck, and walks like a duck.... it's probably... A DUCK

Awesome looking rep, despite the small flaws I'm also interested in the mechanism that keeps the pusher guards closed... It seems that there would be a spring loaded ball and detente to keep them tight... is this right? With the new quality of super reps coming out recently, I really think that the dealers should start upgrading some of the small features that we have to have done seperately... like serviced movements, real superluminova, datewheel, etc Superlume, for instance, would be much better applied by machine than re-worked by hand later (not at all dissing some of our modders awesome work). I don't understand why they don't use the real stuff anyway...

yes, it's gen... there are no rep coramid straps AFAIK

Hmmmm... Well, from what I know of TTK, he's a stand-up guy. Yes, he was banned... No, I don't know why. One thing I know is that he never screwed me and that I always got what I paid for, even if there were issues and it came late. [censored] happens in this hobby, and in life... Ssometimes good, sometimes bad... sometimes people get others' backs up... that's life. One thing I try not to do is kick a man when he's down. Okay... flame away
