  1. It means nothing. Almost every dealer here has their domain seized three or four times a year. It's a huge waste of time and tax money.
  2. I'm not sure if you are being sarcastic? The term "a21j" is used by almost everyone to refer to the two clones of the venerable Japanese Miyota (Citizen) 8125 movement. Ironically the Chinese improved the movement when they cloned it, and added a hacking function. The Japanese gen has no seconds hack. The two Chinese clones of this movement that we call "A21j" are the 2813 and the 4813 .. they cost about $23 us dollars and are respectively a 21k beat and a 28k beat movement.
  3. You are misunderstanding him. BK offers a custom made date wheel on his watches. That's what he's trying to say to you.
  4. Since tritium itself is a colorless gas, you have to assume that the composition of the binding agent is what makes the colors change as time goes by. Different binding mixtures would age differently.
  5. I'm still proudly sporting the SUPER! SUPER! SUPER DOME!
  6. All the dealers and craftsmen (strap makers and watch makers) here are fairly equal .. we keep them listed because you can trust them with your money.
  7. Last year, the Zigmeister had said he was very impressed with the newest generation of Asia ETA clone GMT movements (modules?) .. improved and less likely to slip.
  8. What is BK's mod to this piece, besides a new date wheel sticker?
  9. Hi Ubi ~ please help someone who's still a newb after 4 years .. what's the acronym CWP stand for ?
  10. A soft goods merchant is a member here on the message board. Send a private message to "KB" and he can help you.
  11. You could certainly email Vaccum and simply ask him.
  12. The Mods can not enforce the will of the dealers. Use your head domain seizure, anyone? This message board is for people who collect replica watches as a hobby. It is *not* a tool Dealers use to sell counterfeit watches. Asking Mods to weigh in on enforcing Dealer requests is clueless and dangerous.
  13. the average movement used in replicas is good for 40 hours if it is running properly
  14. In the replica factory calendar, June means Christmas.
  15. Highoeyazmuhdee is just getting rolling in the building scene. His current project is vintage silver date wheels appropriate for ETA movements. Zigmeister is the opposite: he's a master watchmaker about to retire from the rep scene and no longer takes new clients. If a good watchsmith could not get a snap crownguard style panerai rep to be waterproof, I would be very surprised. It's really just a matter of using proper gaskets.
  16. This function has not been working on web browsers and Tapatalk since the morning after the board was down. About 9 hours after the board came back up, the participated threads function and the Search went down at the same time. Tapatalk shows Participated Threads perfectly fine in RWI and other boards at this time.
  17. The Pasha and the Balon Bleu plus the tank francaise
  18. If you buy a quality replica of a waterproof watch, it should have the ability to be waterproof. The problem is that Chinese factory QC is so bad that entire gaskets might be missing from your watch. Have any dive watch you purchase tested for water resistance. That is the only way to know. No one can predict if the specific watch you receive in the mail will be assembled properly.
  19. Google has some powerful search tools that almost no one is aware of. If you include the words SITE:rwgforum.net in the google search, they will only search this one site for your results. I have used this in the past for searching larger Dealer sites for a particular replica .. like Watch Eden .. huge site, and terrible internal search.
  20. Google has a little-known search term tool .. the site: tool. Include site:rwgforum.net in your google search and it will only search this site.
  21. Soap and water cleans off the sweat and oil deposited by your skin. This makes the metal brighter.
  22. 3M refinishing pads are what most people use, I think. That's what they are for, right?
  23. Maybe I'm stupid but it looked like you were only going to print 20 dials in total, then quit.
