I doubt we have the ability to effect much change in how these dealers describe their products since as it was already pointed out.. we are a small percentage of customers. How many more watches do they sell by giving incorrect information regarding the movement or sapphire? I'd guess quite a few.. enough to make it pay to lie? A dealer could really clean up on this board if he offered a fair price, told the complete truth, hand picked each watch, was prompt in answering emails, had fast shipping, followed up with whatever is promised, and took care of problems within reason. Do we know of any dealers like this?

I have a solution for putting all the replicators out of business. Are you reading this Rolex, Panerai and Omega? STOP CHARGING SUCH IDIOTIC PRICES FOR YOUR WATCHES!!! If the reppers can knock your watch off almost 100% for what it costs to buy coffee at Starbucks for a week and make a profit?? It's just steel and a mass produced movement!

Have you seen all the sites and shops everywhere openly selling rep bags and purses etc? How about airplane parts? Nike shoes? Watch reps are a very small part of the knock off world and will continue with little trouble.

Got something against complications? You need a nice 196 in there to shake things up a bit?

Hold on.. not sure what version mine is since it has the 22mm lugs. Did the rev 5 have 22 or 20mm?

Awesome pics gents! I love my PO 45.5 even though it's a 5th gen. I got it a few days before Andrew posted the ultimate! Sucks!!! Oh well... that's life. My PO has the protruding case back that makes the watch sit up too high because of the movement.. other than that I'm happy w/ it. It's a real beauty and feels incredibly worthy of my wrist.

Can you wait until Nov so I can come too? Bloody rat bastards! Where's "gun city"?

1000!!! NICE! Your American English is better than most Americans including our wonderful president poopiehead. Prove that you live in Roma! Let's see a pic of current Italian newspaper??

These companies probably pay to have them wear their brand... what better advertising?

Visable dark thick printed datewheel w/ high mag cyclops! I care little how close to gen it is because it would be better than gen? I'd pay maybe $20-$25...

Hmmm... me like swiss chocolate. So the vote is in... this watch is a dog that won't hunt.

Oh NO! You mean I'm not the only one who's wife has no idea how much I spend on watches or how many I have for that matter?? If I die she's going to have fun going through my stuff... maybe i should write down which ones are gen and which are reps and costs $$$??

Looks very generic.. wanna be watch.

Monday starts off with the infamous instrument!

Love the strap buckle... don't need the engraving really. Who's got one for sale? Ebay?

I had the same problem w/ having a attempt to deliver on my door cuz the wife ignored or didn't hear the knock. Now.. I have them shipped to my office... somebody is always around to accept and I get my watch on the first attempt!!!

Is this thing ready for sale yet?? What's this about putting it on 44's and 47's? They have different lug widths!

I stand corrected.. it's just fabric.. not Kevlar.. found it!

Makes my B&R 46 feel like a girlie watch... this is the king of my collection!

I'm still unable to find the kevlar... AHHH!!!! I wonder if it's no longer made?

See the Hirsch w/ the deployant in the middle? What/who/how much/where?

Mr. Posh Spice is a very lucky man indeed. What sport does he play again? Oh... Soccer? I've heard of that. Americans are too lazy in the brain to accept another sport.. football and net ball aka basketball. That's it.. game over.

Nice story.. that had to be a little uncomfortable for him to find out his fake is an easy mark for some. Imagine if he said it was real and you busted him? Oh the humanity! I have yet to meet another person in the flesh that would spend the money I do on a rep let alone a gen. Maybe it's just typical americans that recoil when they hear you bought a watch for $2-3k while they're used paying $50 for a Calvin Klein or Diesel. I guess people have different priorities. What's with this superior talk? I'm a manager and I'd never want anyone to call me a superior! Think of him as a coworker.. only YOU are the boss of YOU.

This is the best of the lot! I love it!!! How much?

Dude... I can't believe you would take the chance w/ a new sapphire and have zero tools/knowledge?
