I think VB"s Gender is still going over peeps heads

he has a affinity to sheep ... but "there is NO EXCUSE for domestic violence"

this sounds classic TTK ... CS ... especially when the 'q' looks like a 'g' on first glance

my SUPA DUPA ~

there is a good REASON why Lions eat their young....

He was pushed over the edge (not like he was balanced to begin with).. and started his own "Darkside Clan" .. unlike the KKK the TTK allows .. short people.. ethnic cultures... anyone that agrees with him .. and buy's his imaginary watches.. http://ttk.fatpipeshosting.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=2

same... .. I cannot remember the lasst time I had to "log in" .. RWG is in my favs .. on my home DT and on my LT .. as a side, has anyone been having issues with the site "not responding" ?.. I constantly have to "end program" and restart my internet hook up.. started when I switched to McAfee security thanks Lani

Looks good Y !! but man you guy's wear your bracelet tight enough to feel your pulse .. does your fingers start getting numb ? Take care my friend !! Aloha~Cheers Lani

looks like a winner Chad.. Live Strong and Wear it Well !!

I reall you selling a watch that you thought was too big.. last year.. and to all of us it looked fine .. and we all told you as much... IMO the 44's on up are made to wear big... the lugs don't need to be inside your wrist.. glad you came to see that MP..

the dial reminds me of the VC's.. and the lume brings to mind the lighthouse at Diamond Head... going back in time... Great looking piece MM !! Live Strong and Wear it Well L

. . . sheesh.. I need a break.. checked and the top gun is out of customs .. the crown and pushers are supposed to be ti.. and judging from the pics on Joshua's site they look to be just that.. maybe my Nikon can take the macro's by itself by now.. yeah.. reps are the mistresses .... genuines are the "main squeeze" but mistesses are more fun ...

Congrats BT !!.. one of your fav reps.. now becomes the gen. I think my crystal will go to chiefs next run.. the dial on the rep is just too good to pass up improving the xtal.. Aloha~Cheers Live Strong and Wear it Well !! Lani

Hey Samu, you have had quite a number pass your door ... remembering some of my first reps.. the Breitling for Bently ... Super Avenger.. and of course the Submariners .. and Pams.. 127 was my first ever rep. .. before I came on board RWG.. .. seems like a long time and many reps ago.. @BT.. a very select collection ..

Much can be said too about the Quality of the reps since last year, they have reeally raised the standard.. as set by sites such as Honpo.. etc. .. I'm awaiting the full ceramic Top Gun and it is made by the makers of the HBB line.. they never dissapoint.. I would say they are in a class all by themselves as fare as GZ goes .. we'll see.. it'll have the lazer etching like the genuine.. ti crown and pushers.. We shall see.. yup definately time to sell off some of the never worn reps ...

. . . Your younger... you have plenty of time to "turn"....

These 2 For the Manic Monday

thank you for your time Z .. to have your approval rating on a movement say's volumes !!

. . . . No offense Logan, but it's a little late in the game to be concerned over "who" is checking up on us... I would like to believe that RWG.. draws attention not as a "illegal" enterprise.. cause we are not !!.. In actuality, the forum was established to 'protect' individuals from scam sights and dishonest dealings.. for this RWG can wave it's flag proudly .. if the "powers that be " were serious, this sight and others like it would have been shut down long ago ... if you are referring to the Internet marshals of ebay and PP.. well, if you sell reps on ebay ... you may be "stuck on dumb" and breaking the cardinal sin of "our" code.. whatever our code is.. I don't think our "Founder" thought that his Forum would grow into such a wonderful Community .. the main purpose was to "Protect" but look at how members support each other in all aspects of Brotherhood !! The Brussels GTG.. wow, that is an event that I would love to travel to, I mean when you start thinking in those terms, it Say's volumes about the members who organize and plan the event !! .. and if Interpol was serious.. what are they going to do? .. arrest people for~ "great camaraderie and goodwill" :thumbs up smiley anime: My thoughts recently have been about the "evolution" of the rep collector.. more than just "how many reps" one has . there are interesting changes in this hobby that take place and it seems to be "text book" behavior .. of which I may be an example .. So that you won't think I don't want to "stick" my neck out and just ask everyone else to come forward.. Really,.. I have never counted "how many reps I have" .. I think if I did I may commit myself to a week of rehab for watches.. but I will throw in with everyone else.. I don't know the exact count, but somewhere in the vicinity of .... 175~200 .. now there are others who have had more .. just not all at once. Now if you don't hear from me .. then you will know you were right ... and I have been whisked away to the "Federal Detention Center" ... otherwise I;ll be here doing what we all do.. looking for that perfect REPLICATION ... Aloha~Cheers Lani

Siesta.. sorry I was running outta the house .. but the ebay pearl fits right into the rep insert.. the rep pearl plucks right out.. and I use the rubber cement that grade schoolers use.. it stays firm but if you need to , it can be removed rather easily,.. btw.... My black dial has a genuine crystal ~ the Orange Pumpkin has Chiefs Ar'd xtal on it

that is what I mean .. your own personal count.. I believe my main thought would be the changing mind set of the collector or evolution of the collector .. through the number of watches he/she owns after a few years .. I'm evolving again in my thought process with the reps.. don't know where it is going.. I'm just along for the ride...

the insert (wholesale O) is a fraction of a mm smaller and it would have to be milled (thicker) .. it is OEM spec.. and the rep bezel is a hair bigger than the genuine.. a very small fraction of a mm. But this beats sourcing the genuine bezel.. which would have to be moddded to fit the rep case anyway

here you can see the big difference in the pearls... the genuine bezel.. cost over 200 usd ... then the franken would be close to a used genuine.. so this would be the alternative,.. cause the insert is just as good.. and the OEM insert would not fit the bezel.. I'm not trying to "bogart" you thread.. but there is an alternative to fixing the insert .. rather than buying the whole bezel.. btw.. the lume on the after market pearl will match your genuine dial's lume..

Great Siesta.. Congrats... FYI.. the OEM style pearl .. (wholesale outlet) on the bay.. but you have to get the entire insert .. the genuine insert is a fraction of a mm smaller and thicker.. but I sourced it for the pearl only.. regardless you got a beauty there.. you can see the genuine pearl on the poster in the background, the after market pearl on the orange insert is closer if not spot on with the genuine.. .. I have another that I still have to stick on the black insert.. the infamous pearl on the inserts will always be the "tell" that can give away the piece.. Live Strong and Wear it Well Aloha~Cheers L

please don't misinterpret... I am lovin the entire piece.. but my other C1 lumes last longer.. agree, not as bright as the SL .. and I am not versed on lume material.. perhaps it needs more time. I did soak the bracelet in "3-IN-ONE" oil.. and the links are much improved..
