"Does a rep lead you to purchase gen?" I must say that i am on the way ... Not to buy a lot gen , and not to stop rep for gen, but at least, among my 7 rep, my Pam 005 still remains my prefered. Then i think that in the next year i should by one, 005 or 111, not completly sure of the model, but a PAM definitely. And always the pleasure to have other watch via rep world.

My first one was a 217 (For Sale in few days .. ) The second one was a 005 ....And it's always my prefered today

My "new sub" for all WE long i think .... When i says new is that with my new Nato strap, i discovered a new watch.

V., what a wonderfull job you have done here : pics, clothes match, review, real feeling about it quality vs price ... Your work is really precious for us. Thanks for that PS : unlucky there is approximatively 10 000 km between us.. it must be lot of fun to do shopping withh you

Really nice combo Pug. I should try it on mine..... Hope a wristshot of it

Enought IWC for the week. It's the PAM return ... i just get back my 217 from the watchsmith

Panda yesterday, FA Jones today ..

Panda for today - one of the best with a suit (pic taken 5mn ago)

I bought those on holidays at Punta Cana ...

Dont' worry about that dude, french are not dead (i hope .....) But it's the French Problem : pressure !!! Anyway it's perhaps the best result that french players need to feel free and win the WC !!! ALLEZ LA FRANCE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a BOST set that i have bought in a mall !! I am in France and i don't know if you can find it in US .... Concerning the cigar smell i am like you : i hate smell it but love smoke it

My sub with my new Nato Strap (like it more at each minute ..)

I am not the first one to convert a cigar box for another use, but after search a long time for a strap box, it appears to be the most cheaper and pleasant solution. So the pics with some of my prefered straps My Pam strap collection (anyway i buy strap only for my Pam ..) The rubbers .. The last two strap (not yet work : black Savage for my 217 & Smat Strap for my PVD one) Then the MP.. I began to be crasy about strap

After differents tests, the results : I washed it with soap, alcool, etc.... and always the same : allergy came back. But during my holidays, i have tried to paint the back of bracelet with clear nail polish (special polish for this use bought in pharmacy) : i have weared it 2 weeks long on the beach, sand, water, 25m diving, and everything it's ok now (i applicated a new polish every 3 days to be sure to have good protection). Thanks all, cause my sub is now on my top3 prefered watches

ouf

I have compared my perfect sub from Andrew (black one) with a gen 50th anniv. today (both in the hand) : - quality strap is totaly different, but i am not an Rolex expert, and i don't understand when you speak about rigid link ??? Anyway my subs's bracelet looks very cheap. - but what has reaaly shock me was the visible difference on size marker : really thin on rep in comparaison with gen (all marker : circle and 3/6/9/12) ...... i was thinking that our reps' dial were pretty good Anybody confirm ?

It's not my point of view !!!! It's certainly right than brand have a real influence for everybody who love watch (no swatch rep for example, even if i have 2 , but for me design itself it's the point, and before the big size fashion, my B&M always has congrats I take more importance about design, history of the brand (Panerai is a good sample), beauty of mechanical movt than the brand it self : not a pb of elite or not

Thanks Jumbie for this wonderfull strap !! It's very expensive, but i prefer buy one super strap than 2 "m

depends of lot of things : Sub is dressy and sport in the same time. you can wear it with a suit for work, and with a jean during week end. FA Jones is more smart IMO Portuguese Chrono, little more sport cause of the chrono, but still dressy

I got mine 10 years ago : it was my "fiancaille "gift. Not wear a lot since one year (when i began my rep collection) : difficult to wear this size after a PAM or an FA Jones.

PO today (was a long time it wasn't get off the box) Tomorrow will be the beautifull Panda

Thank you guys, i had managed not to think of it any more ..... but now is back on my mind I really hesitate between GMT and Chrono !!! For gmt : i haven't yet a gmt For Chrono : really enjoy the look (but afraid of A7750,, even if it's not the moddified one as my IWC porto) @ stephane : where are you located (i am french near Paris)

Thanks all for advices. I have just clean it with soap and rubbing alcohol. We will see ....

The problem is that i really like SS bracelet on a Sub
