  1. Going with my 253 on carbon fiber Friday afternoon Have a good weekend ALL AC/Lani
  2. Having nice chats with a friend half way around the globe.. as his request for pics of the 253 with the carbon fiber deployment strap with blue stitching... I've had both the 253 and the carbon fiber strap for a couple of years now..I just never got aound to putting it on .. the Toscana carbon fiber strap I had on is thicker and the carbon fiber is first rate.. but this blue stitching which you've seen on other 253's is novel.. this ones for you Plaifender.. good luck with your project Thanks for viewing AC/Lani
  3. Just thought I missed a day..no worries .. I get to post on two threads now..
  4. When your the one answering the pm's and this part of the review was added on late.. yes I feel it proper.. look at the views.. must mean members are using the link.. .. this is for the viewing of those who already read the review before I did this end of it.. you may find no need for it.. but your not the only one on the forum,, L
  5. it's common practice for dealers to change domains this is the new Addy> www.perfect-hour.com bookmark his site once your in.. email him > perfect88clones@gmail.com AC/Lani
  6. Wow.. that is a long time to be without a "Fix" .. Ya must be Jonesing BIG TIME Welcome back.. ya got some catching up to do .. ala Rumpelstiltskin AC/Lani
  7. Thank you drobbins.. sounds like a name form the "Hobbit" The movement does feel good through the crown and when kick starting the Power reserve .. but weather that means anything in the grand scheme. I dunno.. with the benefit of the doubt.. the makers are claiming the new steel to be 316F .. I think myself, that it has more chromium in the mix than 316F or L .. having said that,.... I really don't care what it's called or what it really is..aslong as mky wrist doesn't start turning green the look is fantastic.. and that has been the Achilles Heel of the old rep.. the "look" of the steel, in comparison with the gen.. the rep was always darker and duller.. so for what it is now.. I likes it AC/Lani
  8. What happen to Friday ?????
  9. Batman tells robin where the Bat Cave is.. but does Superman tell Louis where His Fortress of Solitude is..??? ok. maybe a poor analogy.. but the only one I could come up with.. AC/Lani
  10. Not only that.. think of this.. maybe, there would of been something wrong with the watch.. and the karmic forces of the universe kept you from obtaining a problem.. sounds good for thought anyway
  11. The 2836 is an ETA.. you need to google that if you are not informed of the movement.. the Rolex Asian Clone is a replicated movement, my Rolex clones are keeping very good time.. and feel good through the crown..we'll see over time how they work.. for me it's about the movement being problematic or not... the rep Rolex movement will not "fool" someone with knowledge.. my opinion for others buying.. buy the eta..
  12. Congrats :thumbsupsmileyanim:
  13. Don't feel too badly.. I missed a grail vintage watch I have been searching for .. I shook it off as ..not meant to be.. then one week later .. another for 700.00 less than the great deal of a week ago, and I missed it... I tell myself.. both were not "meant to be" .. that something good will come out of it...and move one.. sure I still ponder the thought at times.. then I need to tell myself... "it's just a thought".. which it is now.. Just a thought... AC/Lani
  14. Go here >Dealers sub section for Rolex Sub.. BK has the best in the WM9 Deep Sea Sea Dweller (DSSD) go here for the review and the dealer>DSSD Review the sky is the limit with "Frankens".. genuine parts you source to build using a rep case .... you will evolve with time and your hobby with watches may change.. as mine has.. I get more gratification form sourcing and building a franken than I do buying a genuine.. AC/LANI
  15. the black dial in BT's review is still the best out there.. the white dial has the silver grey indices.. it should be black.. someone did source a correct one though.. for detail stick with the black dial ..imo..] AC lani
  16. All the deaers listed in the Watch Collectors section are approved to be "trusted" .. stick with RWG's dealers ..check in if your in doubt.. there are dealers whom work directly with the makers and then secondary dealers who are not part of the planning of the reps.. marketing is done by ALL.. as having the best rep.. you need to decide on yours after doing a little bit of researching.. every member has fave dealers.. so any one member will tell you dealer xxx is the best .. holla if you need help.. Edit Add:.. some prerequisites that you may consider.. does the dealer guarantee delivery?.. ie. customs ..lost parcels.. does the dealer replace defects? and to me.. very important.. can the dealer source parts when needed?.. some can source parts others cannot... it is important for me .. down the road you will eventually need spare parts or a bracelet.. etc. here is some eye candy for a Breitling Blacksteel, one of the "Super Reps" AC/Lani
  17. May All here enjoy a Festive and Blessed Holiday Season, to you and yours I wish you the happiest of Holiday's AC/Lani
  18. I think it's a perfect PreV ma man...nice block case, stubby lugs.. cone shaped bezel, correct crystal.. grab it NOW!
  19. Customs in UK is not as stringent as in other countries... if it's just watch parts.. list it as such on the declaration and declare it as 5 usd.. gift. If it's a watch declare it as 30 usd /gift... .. (description)~watch.. I've sent items.. flat rate express and Priority..Express 4 day's .. Priority~ 2 day's more.. but you have to pay extra for a tracking number with priority flat rate I don't use tracking on priority but I do keep the tracking number in case the parcel is lost.. USPS can track it internally with the number... so always keep that stub. it's a catch 22 with the $$ declaration.. if you claim it for what it's worth then the buyer will be liable for extra duties.. and if you claim the watch for it's real value of say 400 usd (for insurance purposes).. it sends up red flags; as a genuine would cost much more..and the buyer may be liable for the duty on the genuine if Customs deems it so. Your documentation is the key when dealing with parcels that cross borders. AC/Lani
  20. Nice shot with the Sunset as backdrop E....
  21. It's available with the ETA 2836 from PC now, so you have a choice...it's still up to you.. to buy or not..and a choice of the eta 2836 or Clone 3135 AC/Lani
  22. I'll take that as a very nice compliment Samu.. the case set was gifted to me and to even think of selling it..... no can but get with Zigs.. OEM pvd .. you will be very happy with the results.
  23. No we don't there are those who will critique, but not want to get involved in the work.. to much hassle.. so does this mean your volunteering ???
  24. So have you resolved the problem.. do you need a link and screw??
  25. Nice.. correct open 4 on the bezel
