it just arrived back today.. and since ziggy had it .. I am not even checking on the mechanics... it's kind of Automatic with Zig... I cannot even tell the numerals have been relumed.. amazing.. but lello's DW makes all the difference in the world as far as clarity .. who would think the printing of the font could play such a role huh ?? .. must be macro placement on the DW .. purely centered etc.

these are really old pics .. of koa and pua.. my shar-peis Koa past about a year and a half ago .. and pua left us early .. but they were joined at the hip .. and were with me 24/7 .. they took care of "me" for a long time they were 3 months old in these pics.. koa's sire was a grand champion .. pua's was a state champ.. but to me they were just family thanks for posting this.. brings back good memories

Here is my 104 returned from Canada Let the pics speak for themselves ... there is no trace that the sausage numerals have been re-lumed ... DW swap.. swapped "correct" DW with "Lello DW" .. now it is correct .. the mag seems to function better with the Lello font and printing.. before lellos DW the font on the factory DW was distorted .. the cyclops is the rep as this is a sanwich crystal ...Genuine crown swap ...spacing looking good ... Nice job of AR by the rep maker,.. crystal does disappear ...These Lume shots were taken in daylight indoors with 400 exposure.. note: the dial was held to the window for about 10 seconds . before the shots were taken.. thank you Ziggy and J.........

Omega Speedmaster Date Black dial and White Dial Pics .. Black dial and the White Dial all that has been written to date.. this is just pics of the 2 dials that may or may not have been posted and the links to the Great Pictorial review by rolexman and the write up i had done earlier http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=67015.... Rolexmans Pictorial Review for the Panda dial Speedmaster Date http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=65161 .. Lanikai's write up,.. and pics White dial... this dial is definately shouting for the HK Tan alligator strap (antique brown) ..IMO Black Dial.... .... one last note.. the Omega emblem on this rep is spot on .. notice the difference between this logo and the logo on the PO .. and on the genuine dials that have been posted and I think U will find that as Rolexman has claimed this to be a "super rep" .. you can see why.. All that has been written can be viewed through the links above What can i say... the Black and the white dials definitely do not disappoint Hope U enjoy viewing.. thanx lanikai

@VB... the statement or statements was not pointed at you ... these are questions that i believe should be answered by TWP.. and I am not talking about your rep in particular.. although it would seem you are a spokesperson for TWP.. or at least PR for him.. I realize all your trying to do is help the guy, but why does he need it ? I'm sure you have no vested interest in his business.. Reviews .. write ups ... pictorials ... it would be wise to stay unbiased and not market the collector then turn into a representative for him/her .. it could cause misunderstandings.. making excuses for collectors is uncalled for, let the collector answer for themselves .. let the mods work speak for itself again the members that will really be affected are the new comers with only other members recomendations to live by .. and if he/she only reads a scant portion of the forum then they will probably be swayed by all the hype of members cheering a mod that has proven to be if anything inconsistent in his/her work and excuses as to that work.. that won't hold water.. so to speak what I am trying to say is no need to take charge of this situation it will only cause burdens for you ... you should not feel in a difficult situation although it is your rep in the pics this rep is not the only issue in question.. Vici just allow TWP to step up by himself..you are not responsible for anything here

Intentional or unintentional Vic.. when people are comped a product it is human nature to back that product or it's supplier .. if members are being told they are not being charged for certain items ... but asked nicely to post how happy they are .. then that form of manipulation is wrong .. on the sellers end.. not on the buyers side ... I am not by any strectch of the imagination saying that deals have been struck .. but it is possible ... is that why we see all these post raving about TWP.. when his mod work..(whoever is doing it) is terrible ???

White for numeral version .. concentric rings in the subs are awesome Blue for stick version .. blue is best in the stick Black for TT stick version .. the double AR really kicks in this dial colour with the TT then you have the graphite . stick dial choices are endless ... aloha Lani

For those who are still wondering about the "deleted" post http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=68181 I just don't buy any and all of it period !!!!I don't buy .... that TWP even took the pics... I seriously doubt the work or "modding" for lack of a better term is even done by TWP.. it could be very well done in GZ for all I know..(and I am serious) the only thing I am sure of is he does collect the funds for the reps he sells .. with all this going on .. you would think that TWP would be available for comment.. no ??? What is going on.. free mods for favourable reviews ..because that's what it bloody seems like is happening..

No worries MT.. I cover up at the gym.. long sleeve.. I like to keep the blood pumped, I like to keep the blood in the muscle as long as I can to flush the lactic acid out as much as possible.. I alway's cover up, only time I weat tank tops is outside the gym.. some of the guy's that slice up their t-shirts.. I swear their GF's lie to them.. cause we sure see something different than they do in the mirror...lol 47" is XL .. XXL for T-shirt.... XL for tank top ... the t-shirt I'm wearing in the pic is XL and tight..so you definately take a XXL T-shirt,... XL tank top

One guy from .. "down under' used to do minimal reps .. high weight .. high compression movements.. your talking 2 to 3 reps only 2 to 3 sets.. he was huge.. so he broke down enough cells then rested a couple day's .. they rebuilt to huge sizes.. roids are actually the best way to recover.. rather than to just get super stong.. too many guy's over train and break down too many cells to recover... tried all the different routines.. 3-1... 4-2... 3-1-3 ... your GH spikes at sleep or right after training .. so it makes no sense to over train then little recovery time.. Personal trainers now are into hours .. they love nothing better to schedule clients 6 day's a week.. adult day care..lol only way to get big.. train hard.. a lot of rest .. 6 meals a day... 6000 "good' calories.. that is a full time job.. and costly .. only 3 of my buddies parlayed this into lucrative business' .. others .. just for trophies .. still it was the mental as well as the physical challenge that made it all worth it.. with all the injuries .. I would do it all over in a heart beat.. Go hard or GO HOME...

what increments of lbs. are on the plates.. the world power meets are all kg. but is that 22 lbs.. on the plate.. lol.. that would be strange here..

know what you mean.. alway's had to have my suits cut.. you know the deal.. chest and shoulders,.. arms taken out.. nothing fits off the rack.. pants need too be oversized then trimmed big time at the waist.. regular shirts .. to find the one that fits.. the tails are down by your knees.. the sleeves .. a meter too long.. You use chains and rubber straps in your training in UK (hanging off the bars etc.)?? eastern europeans did it for decades .. it just caught on here in the 90's what are you XXL .. what colour black,.. red ?? mostly XXl at the gym .. used to be "the Gym" then Golds bought it out.. we all stayed though power room is not AC'd .. couple of the boy's getting ready for the strong man contest.. I should post pics.. something to see.. 300 lb. concrete ball hoisted up to a platform.. multiple times .. try and pick that off the ground.. nothing to grab.. doctor friend offered me HGH.. would love too.. but not just to be big.. still .. someday it will be over the counter IMO

You are soo dead on BT.. "kids" now day's are into .."for show" .. Power moves are the only answer .. all you said... and full clean and jerks... all the kids want guns but never improve overall base.. squats,.. dead lifts,.. bench.... everyone wants arms and chest.. looks stupid to have large pecs and arms.. no legs.. no back the only young power lifters that do well.. I'm talking about State and World records are the ones that are willing to put in the work.. training that will make you puke.. not the ones that come in and do bench and bi's and tri's the squat rack should be your bread and butter .... NO DOUBT.. arms are useless without the base.. Well said BT

U braggin U use your hand for "FUN" .. let's talk slai... .. jokin man.. fun thread..thanx

@TWP.. you stated once that you work without proper tools?? if this is correct what are you "working with" are you actually doing the mods yourself?? if so please show me some evidence of this.. as your prices are extremely high .. I have bought a genuine crown and had it modded for less than you are charging I went through a similar episode last year and this seems errie how it could turn into the same experience.. and as you stated you are a medical professional .. I have friends that are now M.D.'s and they would never think of using some of the terms even in anger that you have shown on the board Am I doubting your validity... yes I am.. I would like nothing more than for you to "prove" me wrong.. up to this point you have shown pics of the dials .. over exposed lumes.. which could make the lume glow like a torch... anyone could take these pics... and posting sales threads ... do you have the physical watches on hand ??? thanks Lanikai
-
thanks for the info Ken. there were post on the thread.. no matter.. I'm not trying to hunt anyone down.. just would like to see fair value for what is claimed to be done.. all I see are dials with claims of mods being done without the proper tools etc. (this was stated in a thread i am unable to locate) .. lot's of excuses and huge prices for work that is in question

sweet uppercut slai... nice pam too..
