  1. Hi Guys, i'm still looking for the best dealer to use to get a Stainless steel Bvlgari Ergon Chrono. I want the 40 size with Black face and working Chrono. Looking for the latest generation so I get the best one.

    I found a few sites but they appear a bit dodgy with photo's of the originals.

    Any ideas? Thanks.

    Hello Tav.

    What members who have replied in the past are telling is that it is not so easy what you are asking for. They mean that for your request you have to buy the gen! This is not a common watch, which means that if one does not know the real thing, he will possibly believe it is a gen, BUT any person who know the real thing will spot the fake immediately. Virtually no rep can pass the exam of a trained eye. More, you are asking for a working chrono (which is not the case for the 21 jewels mov. mentioned ...). If you want something closer to a gen you have to look at another watch, and "search" the forum for more information ;) . If you really want that watch you must accept the mentioned inaccuracies. I would suggest to avoid crawling the web for sellers: you are in the right place to avoid being scammed (the pics of the gens talk ...): look at the collectors' section.

  2. Fantatic idea Lani! You always have a fine sensibility for the new members, and also the old members can benefit from this :thumbsupsmileyanim:

    I would candidate bklm modded GMT master II, correct stack (or incorrect hand stack if you wish, is the same). This can at least compare with the black Explorer II.

  3. Thanks for all the kind words!

    I am feeling better and expext to be back 100% this week.

    I would suggest you a combination of Cetirizine dihydrochloride and Pseudoephedrine, active ingredients contained, among others in J&J's Reactine. I suffered forom the same before dicovering this, very effective remedy. :cry2: The combination permits lower dosages of both substances with even greater efficacy and virtually no "sleepy" effect. :yawn:

  4. Casual Friday in office sadly with not so casual workload :bangin: then again a break helps ;)

    Here is a long distance double wristie with my friend Stephane :rolleyes:

    Hi Laz ... I got the same long sleeved shirt, but ... the logo seems a little fatter on yours .. is it a rep?

    :g:

  5. Well, it's nice words Steve, thanks.

    But I meant creative about the choice of watch: yet another black from the sub/sd familly :rolleyes:

    I would add that it is not important to post great photos (which isn't really my case, some of our members are really very good), it's important to participate by posting!

    I'd love to see your photo, but for some reason, these attached photos are never visible for me.

    When I click on them, they never "embiggen" (as Pug would say) :(

    Well my friend, I am not only a bad photographer, I am also not able to paste my pics in a way to make them visible in a bigger size (as yours). :animal_rooster:

    In so far as the collection is concerned, I am a Rlx guy, and yours is one of the most enviable (together with Freddy's, Ubi's, ByTor's and a few other's) of all RWG B)

    I perfectly know what you mean saying a different shade of black from the family :wub:

  6. This is an original automatic (reduced) Speedmaster. I have one of these, so you can trust me. Even if slighly smaller than the Moonwatch, it is a very nice watch also for medium wrists. The diameter is 38 mm. It is originally sold with SS bracelet (with polished middle links) or black leather. In so far as the price is concerned I think it should go for circa 800 $, assuming the owner does not have the SS bracelet. I add a pic of mine ...

    Good luck!

  7. This is the 3rd of 4th time in the past several years I have seen someone fit 'red' wheels onto a horsecart & try to call it a Mercedes...........or, in this case, a Rolex.

    As was already mentioned, Rolex does not use see-through casebacks & it seems to me that if you want a movement that looks like a gen, then you ought to go all the way & clone the gen movement - plates, bridges, wheels & all. Engraving a few Rolex-style words (using the wrong font) on ETA bridges does not strike me as progress of any kind.

    +1!
