  1. You're welcome. I think you're the 3rd person I've directed away from p2c ... LOL !!
  2. The original post from 2 years ago points out child labor in brick kilns and electronics manufacturing centers .. absolutely nothing specific to watches. 80% of the goods you buy are from China. I suppose you can go around naked if you like, with no phones, computers or ipads .. no TVs .. nothing. It's all made there. Simple as that. China seems to be where the Western world was 120 years ago .. robber barons, unsafe working conditions, little regard for human rights .. Say what you want about the current state of Western labor unions but THIS is why they exist. It was this way for us, in the West, so long ago .. and change came about thru unions. A company will always put dollars ahead of people; it's the nature of things. Take personal responsibility away from decision making, and people can and will do terrible things in the name of their corporation.

    My first rep

    Congratulations. I thought all modern reps of this watch had FAKE waves on the dial face, not real 3D waves. Looks good.

    BK WM9 V2

    Doesnt the WM9 v2 sub use a tiny ladies movement with a huge stilty ring? that could be why it's heavier. Not that I know for certain it's heavier ...
  5. Josh (RWG member Jos Nana) owns Perfect Clones. And they are a trusted vendor here, so they are "good" .. yes. Be sure to go to the correct web address for Perfect Clones, tho. Some scammers run perfect2clones.com trying to fool Perfect Clones customers to buy from them. PC's address is Perfect Clones
  6. Yes I agree; it's good to see you posting again.
  7. Each version has very minor flaws. Nothing that would make it a bad watch. One has bezel insert problems and one has dial problems. No rep is perfect! Of course the 2010 v5 (trevor's style) is almost $100 less for exactly the same quality. Each dealer is free to charge you as much or as little as they want. Pricing is not standard.
  8. Zig used to have a post in his area which included a whole tableau of his lume shots as a mosaic carpet of splendor. Don't know where that is nowadays.
  9. Ah this is my mistake. I read a bit more, and it seems that Google's web crawling robots report the info to Mozilla, not individual users. So Google thinks the site is bad. Mozilla site says if/when Google changes it's mind, Firefox will remove the block notifications.
  10. There are two different versions called v5 .. sorry that this is confusing. Where did you hear about this so we can know which watch you mean? Josh sells one version and Trevor sells the other version.
  11. Nice. Some griefer falsely reported Trevor's store as an "attack page" to Mozilla, and now Firefox blocks every click with a warning page.
  12. Very good! Thanks for this.
  13. Son House, Father of the Delta Blues - reminding you to not mind people grinning in your face.
  14. I've had a few people thank me for mentioning it to them. Not everyone is a long-time Internet hero
  15. Used in the movie "Badlands" and homaged in the Tarantino film "True Romance" by Hans Zimmer .. Musica Poetica <br><br>
  16. There has been a 4 day Chinese national holiday. EMS from China was on holiday as well.
  17. <br><br>Ok, so it's currently the time when the site *should* be very slow, and it's taking about 20 seconds to load a page for me.<br><br>Yesterday, however, the site was so bad at this time that Cloudflare (your ISP maybe?) was throwing up service error warning page instead of RWG forum pages
  18. Gentlemen .. I give you MISS Amanda GIFT !! Directly from Google image search.
  19. So you've been here a while or maybe this is your very first day on the Forum. You want to read something interesting but don't know your way around ... or maybe something very interesting is happening right now but you never look at the Forum in which it's taking place ... I direct your attention to the upper right hand corner of your screen ... VIEW NEW POSTS is what you want! It's what you need! There are an average of 140 new posts every day here, most of them very interesting and topical. You'll never find them if you only look in one or two of your "normal" Forum areas. The View New Posts link will show you every new post no matter where it's located. I hope you use it and find something which interests you but you've never suspected existed.
  20. My seller of choice just emailed me and confirmed that they've been away for the 4 day Chinese holiday ... EMS (in China) was on Holiday as well so no shipments.
  21. Early and also inexpensive Milgauss reps use a green plastic gasket under the rim of the crystal. The color of the gasket broadcasts up through the edge of the crystal and so gives the illusion of a green glass. More recent and proper replicas actually have green tinted crystals. I do not know if it's a coating or the lens color. I don't own one.
  22. This has to be on the list of best "Value Watches", so bumpity bump for Forum newbs to see and appreciate!
  23. Steve McQueen took way too much bad "hippee" Hollywood advice from friends, and went to Mexico to "let the native power of the people there, and their wise medicine" cure his cancer ... instead of going to a US hospital. That's why he's dead .. not a crash.
  24. I wonder how many tax dollars those Customs inspectors wasted spent collecting your 100USD in VAT. X-raying dollies can't be cheap.
  25. Look at the top of the watches .. the 42mm is the POrikaa from ... Narikaa! Like I said earlier: altho the UPO is "only" 3mm larger than a 42mm Planet Ocean, it wears L A R G E R ...
