I just used the link and logged in so yes mate. He probably dont answer questions like that to be fair. I will PM you his Email just to confirm

This today

And I have to watch Magnum to see views like that!!! You lucky People!!

Now that will end up in the dictionary as a collective name for a group of Vintage PAMs!!! So on that logic would a group of Submersibles be a 'shoal' ?or a 'Pack'?

Now that is a very good point. You better check mate!!

I think that was more because he liked them both but the gen of one was out of his price range whereas the other brand was not. In the end he went for both I think... If it had been Like for like, then maybe it would be more about value for money rather than just a simple financial decision. Though I am inferring that 'purely financial' is based on affordability.

Sorry to hear about your woes mate, I went through the same. Just remember you might not get quick replies as its Chinese New Year holidays till about 23rd

Personally I agree with one of the posters on the OT. That is if you appreciate the movement as much as the watch looks itself then buy the gen. But yes I agree some of the better reps do challenge the lesser gens for build and quality. But is that not to be expected given the origins of manufacture or parts currently for the majority of these watches. Also his choice wasnt like for like so I think that clouds the issue somewhat for debating direct comparison.

Its bad enough hearing it without having to watch it as well..... you better get a steak for that eye

Thanks mate. Well it a least his taste in watches makes up for his choice of sport

I prefer the black face chrono with subdials one they have in the UK adverts I think its the new Aqua Terra GMT It has the Olympics Rings on it so I guess its an official watch as well

Your right not cheap..... but he has 10 so maybe open to an offer...?

Is he well known then or a member

I get charged more often than not, no matter the source and the fee has no consistency in terms of the size of the gift sent

More or less all standard rep mate not like DSN

Upfront

Andrews a good guy. Is Yodo posting here and on this site!! (Gran)

I am just surprised he doesnt have a box for them

Bit of CC rubbing and it will be polished!

I did try a couple of buckles on the gen strap for deployant. The thinner buckles area OK but the thicker ones dont feel right. Plus the depolyant creates less wear on the strap whereas if you use the buckle I think the strap would wear quickly with an everyday use. Also thumb looks better than tang in my opinion.

Your mission Rob should you choose to accept is.............. By the way you will self destruct 30 seconds after reading this!!!

Thanks mate. I guess there is no hard and fast rule on the Pre As as its widely reported Richemont used what was left over from the OP buyout. Assuming that, I assume you can end up with a lot of variations to individual models possibly even individual watches. For example I suppose, in the same way the 26 transitional model is A/B series but was issued in the same batch as the full B series Although of the 500 26Bs 50 of them are the transitional A/B version.

I didnt click it was a gen in the pic!! DOH! I wondered why the CG was so good!!!
