  1. $1300 for a Invicta?

    I'm sure it's a nice watch... but don't do it!!!

    Imagine what preowned great brand watches you could get for that money: Breitlings, Omegas, DateJusts, etc. Add $500 and you'll get a no-date Submariner.

    DON'T BE CRAZY!!!

    Ditto

    Anything above $300 for an Invicta is F-ING CRAZY.

    I don't care about Fine Time Piece this or Fine Time Piece that; Ceramic. MOP. Meteorite nor "only XXX in the world" BS.

    I don't care if it was made by a dozen Blond 34DD Swiss-German babes with a PHD in watchmaking.

    For #1300 you are being Invictamized.

  2. andrew's seems to be inconsistent according to some of the posts.

    what about: Kings? eddieLee's? River? Nataliee? Ruby? silix? JosNana? TTK? any of them good?

    The platinum bezel reproduction will always look like [censored].

    If the entire watch is supposed to be platinum it does not look so bad but when the case and bracelet are SS and the bezel is supposed to be platinum.....well it looks like [censored].

    This is just a very tough watch to get right.

  3. ........and BTW, look at all the rep bags, etc. that EVERYBODY buys. Hasn't put a crimp in that business either.

    On that tangent. Almost the entire rwg,rwi,and trc community is male. Why don't our dealers sell wallets for men? We need to score a gift for the womyn in our lives from time to time but we need more than watches straps, and pens in our modern lives!

  4. Ultimate (the new CN sub?):

    Cons:

    The dial on the LV isn't as good as the old CN sub (bold m, swiss made over 3 ticks, fat marker surrounds).

    The bracelet on the one i had was very sharp on the edges

    the crown is a little too fat

    The dial problems were on the first batch of ultimates. I just recieved my Ultimate LV from PT it has an uprgraded dial with not bold "m" and correct second markers.

    The bracelet is not perfect but not sharp. I think a simple polish will do no crock sticks or files necessary.

    Yeah, I think the crown is a little too fat.

    BTW: He still has pictures of his old ULT up with the old dial errors. I suggested he should take new picks. Oh well......

  5. I also got a response from Ken.

    He even mentioned pre-orders, I just asked him about some details so we will see.

    Maybe they are working on a chrono version? It would be even cooler!

    Is this a Daytona @6 type model where they will build an extra bridge for RO?

    On the other RO with a Japanese 17J auto, where is that movement from and who makes it?

    Miyota,Seiko or some random company?

    Those look awfully iffy. Wempe ROO with an Eta looks like best option.

  6. November 25, 2004

    . Senna's logo, Senna's coloured helmet, the words "LIMITED EDITION" and the limited edition number are engraved on the customized case back.

    Thanks ahchard.

    Well I was starting to warm to the Senna.

    Cool limited edition watch that I could take off at an AD,place on the jewlers matt , and try on other watches without worrying that the salesperson would pick up and identify as a Rep.

    Back to square one I guess. :whistling:

  7. i can't imagine that seiko looks very good with a armani suit. there is a time and place for everything.

    Nope, I have an Oris XXL Day-Pointer for that. Looks great with my Armani suit. No Armani "suits" yet but working on it. :D

    Now that I am getting into reps I think I will get a RG Radiomir.

    NOT a Rolex Day-Date. Not in million years.

  8. How many of you will admit to staring at another persons wrist to try and catch a glimpse of their watch. I must admit, I have done this most of my life, but really stare after discovering the Rep Forums.

    Stat padder,post [censored],stat stuffer. :D:lol::p:3a:

    (That is sarcasm if it is not obvioius :yeah: )

  9. Been there - done that.

    I don't know wheter it's nickel or not.

    What can be done, is to use some clear nail polish on the back of the watch.

    The problem dissapair!

    Good luck.

    Bingo, nice thick coat of clear nail polish does the trick in every case I have heard including mine.

    Yes, 316L SS has nickel in it.

  10. so then that means that the wm9 models are the same tw models that can be obtained through our channels for a few dollars less, right?

    (that was the only point i was trying to make earlier, btw)

    Well. WM9 offers a few more TW Best models than are offered here like the LV.

    I guess he changes the bezel and dial from a stock TW Best?

    He also claims to waterproof the watches to 200M, I know that is iffy but can't prove he doesn't.

    Finally,he offers a 12 month warranty.

    Then again he does not offer the TW Best Classic.

    He does say his watches are 144 grams which is heavier that gen so maybe he usese the solid mid link bracelet from the TW Best Classic?
