  1. As our esteemed leader say's .. Deja Moooo...
  2. You certainly held out with one rep for longer than most of us and your first post to boot.. So.. Welcome to the Forum !! ... cruise the board you may find more watches to entice you.. AC Lani
  3. got this sometime ago.. taking it out of storage.. it is ..imo one of the most accurate divers watches to come along in the last couple of years, the only tell on the dial is of course the recessed dw .. it's heavy .. the strap still has a pleasant vanilla scent..the bezel works flawlessly.. the dployment strap is very well made and the engraving on the clasp is very well done.. the feel of the movement via the crown is solid a brilliantly made piece. imo.. Enjoy the view.. Thanks for Viewing AC Lani
  4. Well.. speaking from experience" .. we can all agree that most high end AD's have their head up their arse, when it come to reading people.. for I have known millionaires to dress in faded jeans and t-shirts that look like their ready for goodwill.. that being said .. there was a time a time that I visited an AD contemplating purchasing the DSSD .. (I ended up with 2 vintage genuine that I do not regret) anyway.. I asked the "salesclerk" to view the piece.. there were many tourist shopping and the clerk looked at my tats my glasses with the clip on shades.. (my eye's are light sensitive) then surveyed my build .. she then called the GM.. and with a slight nod.. like I was to enter the "backroom" consented with his nod to the clerk.. who then unlocked the drawer to bring out the DSSD... now I noticed many customers sitting looking at various watches.. no problem.. so I was a select customer.. .. well, with this great customer service I lost my appetite for any purchases.. I asked for a brochure, and was told that they are not given out for purposes of counterfeiting .. imagine that.. keep in mind I was not wearing a watch.. my point in all of this is I can have somewhat of an attitude myself when people are overly obtuse.. and if I were wearing a rep and someone did "try" to confiscate it.. I would not allow such a thing to happen.. SO MY WHOLE POINT TO THIS TREAD.. is "Don't pick a fight unless you are willing to see it through".. that means the Law.. the Courts the Attorney's fees.. just don't go there.. cause in the end although you may be 100% right in every way.. you loose in the end.. right or wrong..

  6. This line of Speedy's are as you say so close to the genuine.. nary a flaw. I guess they didn't create more than a passing interest .. possibly die to their size ??? But they are very accurate..much more than the Moon.. but then again the Speedy Moon is the grail watch of choice. L

  9. Yes, I always trip on the design of all the parts of this watch to resemble the parts from the engine etc. AC L
  10. A collection to be proud of frank !! thanks for taking the time to post them AC L
  11. Paniolo .
  12. Mahalo All !! This particular grey colour could be found on the 356 models of the 1950's and 60's ... and since the racing colour of Germany is silver I choose this.. and also they used the grey dial genuine to replicate this model.. the black is nice but the red speaks of another country and brand car... AC L
  13. Good points TJ ... accuracy is a good goal .. in fact we should strive for perfection in everything we do.. but the love and personal passion for watches supersedes what others may or may not think of them .... AC Lani
  14. SOP .. it takes them awhile even when they resume work to catch up.. the usual every year.. L
