So the one at darkside you at linked to brian is from Josh?

I noticed KingWatch's (picture, anyway) was different (closer to gen) than Joshua's and Andrew's ("SCHAFFHAUSEN" runs longer) The original IWC is closer to King's ("SCHAFFHAUSEN" runs the same width of the day/date window on original) Old news? Who should I order from? Any comments--Thanks Josh: http://www.pc-80108.com/images/4/0120/1.jpg KingWatch: http://www.cclv.net/IWC-061.htm Gen: http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/j..._1989_431857517

Is that Porsche Flat Six a rep or gen? Couldn't find it on TT or Josh PC. Thanks fellas

Clear as mud is right. Alls I know is I want a perfect updated Black PanDa 2006, and I am going to use this forum to squeak like a wheel for it.

No, ubiquitous, I've never heard that story--interesting. Is it for sure true? That would seem to back up my first theory.

I've said it before, in the spirit of ubiquitous' post, I'd love to commission a short run of some parts to be made, specifically a new dial and datewheel for the swiss PAM250. B(uild)IY. The more people out there who can reach a site like RWG before buying the better--forcing makers to ideally keep the quality up if they want to sell watches The watch that really got this thread going for me was the Flieger--rated like #5 in "the best" list but it has so many dial problems that could have been easily corrected. The rest of the watch overall looks [censored], but they decided to skew the top sub numbers, exclude the white circles around the subs, etc. I'm still not sure why it is on the list.

I kind of regret making this a "poll" thread, because I meant it more rhetorically. I didn't mean to get numbers, just bring up the subject.

I don't know how to edit the poll questions, otherwise I would go back and make choice "2" : Poor attention to detail/ think no one will care.

This question haunts me the more I look at reps...the more I see little things that could have easily been copied to perfection, especially on the dial, font choice or placement, etc. Is this really the way they avoid litigation or something, or do they have really bad attention to detail? Please enlighten us RWG vets. MODS: If this thread subject is inappropriate or sensitive, or just plain too naive, for any reason, just delete it with my apologies. THIS QUESTION APPLYS ONLY TO THOSE WATCHES WHERE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN EASY TO GET IT RIGHT, as opposed to where they were cutting a considerable amount of costs by using cheaper materials and /or processes. Obviously a lot of them fall in to this catagory, so lets exclude those. If you think it's both, choose which you think is the primary reason.

Just dials. Then we can just swap them out. There are so many watches that just need better dials, fonts, etc. I promise you will be richly rewarded with and by customers.

Is this the Flieger rep that we're talking about being so 1:1 accurate? http://www.trustytime.com/images/IWC/IWC0018A.JPG I see a few obvious problems compared to this gen: (thanx Pug) http://www.insa.com/images/vt/iwc/iwc-3706-b.jpg
