Great images C. !! thank you, just some thought's regarding DS .. IMO .. it is a "working, Functional" Rolex... being that the design is inherent to it's purpose.. and that would be a timepiece built for depth. The slimmer bracelet makes for great balance.. (for my taste). I think my minset is of that of a Operations , Crisis Management type, and not one of the Executive desk type. So my mind set reflects my options for watches I beleive the design of the DSSD reflects it's purpose ... Go DEEP jus my thought's

Just a "Thank you" to the members who upgraded to "Supporter" .. we need more of you to step it up !! I firmly believe that it is not a matter of Apathy, or thinking .. "I don't need to donate" .. just to reaffirm, the funds collected through donations supplements the "Monthly Usage" that is pretty huge on this forum .. absolutely no funds are for private use. I have asked permission of the member (to post this, but decided to leave it up to him if he wants to post an acknowledgement of his upgrade) ... Long story short.. we have a "New Supporter" .. and several others who did so not for anything but to "Share" the load with the rest of us. and for this I (as a fellow member) thank all of you.. and to the member that in a way prompted this thread .. here is your DW going out tomorrow .. and also as communicated, I will send along a genuine Croc Strap for Panerai .. from TC Straps.. brand new.. never worn .. only by the reptile that donated the hide.. As a Thank you Seriously.. This is Home a lot of the day and night to hundreds .. thousands of watch enthusiasts., but only a handful "understand" what it takes to keep this forum running, I believe that the more members that "understand" what we need to do.. well, I just hope you all get the message.. as for me,.. I'm just a member .. rank and file .. no better than any other member .. and I feel that by "understanding" .. from one member to another .. what all of us need to do.. we can keep moving forward.. Aloha~Cheers Lani

First off... CONGRATS JM !!! I am totally with you !! the "Ying and Yang" for some reason having the gen white, prompts me to really want to wear the Black Exp. II ..this one has CHS .. so I am loving both.. I treasure my reps as much as the gen. Not to take away from your thread .. I never posted all the pics I took of my gen. but here is the rep and gen..

ahrighhttt .. back I see.... the dial fits perfectly you can also order the hands from Ofrei .. I'm turning in .. so the part numbers should be found on a "search" .. btw.. please don't use the shout box to search.. Aloha~Cheers L btw.. when setting up an account with Ofrei.. all you need is a credit card and give them a 'business" name.. any name.. they will not ask for registration papers for your business.. call and hit #2 for watch parts ask for Sharon and set up an account first .. she won't get too detailed about the business... so "no worries"

lanikai replied to TwoTone's topic in General Discussion
In any other venue I believe I would be pleasantly surprised, but I guess I have come to feel safe that the culture of this community starting from the Top is one of integrity and Honour .. It's still a great post to read after a long day and a lot of BS put up with thank you to the member whom I sure will recieve exellent karma -

I cannot tell from the pics with the extention what it is capable of... but in one simple phrase, "you get what you pay for" .. most of the time anyway.. I payed 400 usd for the sigma 105mm , I now have a Nikor 62 mm .. the 105 enables you to take images from farther away, and is used I am told more for protraits.. for the close in tight shots there is no difference in the 60mm and the 105mm .. I know the lesser cost is attractive ,.. but in the long run, I think the extra 200 usd will be well thought of. And it has wide angle capability ? .. Plus if it is Auto / Manuel dual capabilities then I believe it is worth 400 usd. A macro lens IMO is .. "a macro lens" you can get a substitute.. and have substitute macro pics,.. but then that's just my opinion .. I am talking from experience in "other" facets where, I thought paying less was the way to go,.. but in some cases this is not so..

sat down to have my morning protein and carbs at the coffee shop.. open ma LT .. and see such a positive vibe !!.. what a way to start the morning.. (everyday) actually..... it is this form that gives energy to all of us,.. and the members that make it so. IMO .. every member makes the other strive to be better ,.. true team mates and team work !! This Forum is abiut Watches.. this Community is about family members who give each other such positive support that all of us are compelled to improve. I cannot see one member who posted here that has not contributed to making each other strive for perfection,.. from our .. Admin T. Mod - Stephane to our newest supporting member jmarin. You gentlemen make me so proud to be a part of this community .. shit I may even convert to soccer.. "NOT" The value of great team members is to create an atmoshpere where it brings out the best play from all the players... and this is the magic of RWG !! So let's .. "Bring it" and keep this "Membership Drive" (for lack of a better name) Rolling throughout the weekend and into next week.. and maybe I can snatch something from my collection ... for a drawing.. or something .. may as well,.. so common all you members that can understand that this forum needs to Generte $$ to keep the rent payed .. we should not and will not depend on Admin to pull our weight .. I think Admin has given us the greatest gift on the net.. let's support that gift.. Aloha~Cheers Lani

Kona ?? Well, what sizes to you fancy ?? the Ulysee Nardin Maxi Diver was just released .. it was made from a genuine sample .. the HBB are pricey but very well made the forum also has services by members.. Chieftangs AR is the best on the planet .. better than the genuines. last year was definately the year for "Breitlings" check out the Black Steel.. the DLC coating is 1:1 with the genuine.. check out the Breitling section for reviews etc. it really was a stunning year for that brand.. the Bell and Ross BR02-94 is the best BR at the moment.. sheesh.. so many look through thee different brand sections and check out all the reviews by various members... bet you can't stick with just one.. the biggest problem you will encounter .. IMO.. is which one to get first !! Check this out.. Mui Macho !! http://www.rwg.cc/members/Breitling-Skylan...k-S-t87368.html

.. then there are those who can drive slick cars but cannot afford .08 cents a day .. that's what a "supporter" contribution comes out to,.. 30 usd into 369 day's = .08 cents a day.. Then there are those members who contibute and then give cool names to Breitling reps.. such as the "Yellow Submarine"
