  1. Yep, orange has never been a favourite colour of mine, but there is something about this watch, I can't put my finger on it, but I prefer it to the other AP's I have owned, including the RBII
  2. This one is a keeper, doing battle now with my new ti CA for wrist time! However, I have had a lot of "keepers" before that I have since sold
  3. Just received this AP secs@12 Volcano from Germany today, thanks Domi! The movement was fully serviced, watch mounted on an APbands carbon style strap with orange stitching. Stunning watch, I had to replace the bezel and buy some screws/lugs to complete the watch, but well worth the effort I think! Pictures, click to expand: Picked up the watch head only on RWG, with a damaged bezel, definitley worth the investment, and now it should run like a champ thanks to Domi Comments and observations welcome!
  4. Just got this piece back from Germany, thanks Domi! Domi re-finished the genuine dial (lots of scratches, now it has a wonderful matte finish, like charcoal). He also AR coated the sapphire crystal, which looks much better now. The movement was from a Skyland I think, hence the correct date font..... Can't buy these any more, along with the titanium Seawolf, you can only get the latest rep versions, which are poor in every respect, nothing like the old school ones! Enough chat, here are some pictures, click to expand! I hope you like it, I am very pleased with the results. The only thing left would be to superlume the hands, but I am really not bothered to do so, I like it fine as is Comments and observations welcome!
  5. I prefer buying a rep and then just wearing it, I am tired of modifying and upgrading reps, let's hope they get this one right from the get go..... If you go the modified/franken route, why not just get the PO rep already on the market, as we all know it can take gen parts already?
  6. There should be quite a few, it's a very popular watch! Cheers!
  7. I would love this watch if they removed the Hublot branding completely
  8. Avitt DLC'ed V3 Blacksteel: The Zigmeister lumed V2 Blacksteel: Grey dial V2 on gen croc: All the colours! All sold long ago too.....
  9. Single AR = me not interested One of the best points of the gen 42/45mm PO is the sweet, slightly domed double AR crystal, showing off that crisp dial. No double AR = FAIL..... Don't see why is should cost $450+ either. The Seawolf is a extremely high quality tank of a rep, with 5-6mm thick double AR'ed sapphire crystal, and that can be picked up for $350
  10. I saw this thread title and immediately thought, "Damn, who is it this time?"
  11. Very nice collection, thanks for sharing, sweet watches one and all!
  12. Thanks By-Tor, I thought you might like it! Keeps em' coming peeps!
  13. Thought this thread should be bumped, new white dial to show off!
  14. Just arrived today from Mary, sweet! I know you like white dials By-Tor, what do you think?
  15. I have a similar issue with one of my watches. Please, what is the best glue for the job?
  16. Thanks deniz21! It is a tank of a watch, so well built as a watch, let alone as a replica! I have no clue as to why they now use an ETA date font, such a shame for those that missed out the first time round..... The Skyland is a sweet watch too, I sold all mine though, should have kept one really.... Cheers!
  17. Not only are they doing well, but they have played some good football too! They dominated the German champions Wolfsburg away from home! By far the better team
  18. Good to see Fulham doing well, beat some quality teams on the way, met Roy Hodgson once too where I work, really nice bloke Good to see football bringing out the best in people, nothing irrational about peeps and their football opinions!
  19. Breitling Seawolf 100% has to be in your collection See if you can find the old version, as it has a more accurate date font than the newer version Cheers!
  20. Most of the basic netbooks are 1024x600, that is the starting resolution for them, however "higher res" ones are 1366x768, I know, I sell them I hope other manufactures bring out a similar device to the Ipad, but with an open system, multiple connections, and a 16:9 screen, for a reasonable price I have nothing against the concept, I love gadgets, but this apple one is over priced and hamstrung. There are a lot of things the Ipad is not, one of them is useful
  21. The Ipad has a 9.7" screen, most Netbooks are 10" or more, some of the nicer ones (still much cheaper than the Ipad) are 11.6", Like the Acer with a native 1366x768 resolution screen
  22. I just don't understand the mindset of peeps that camp out in front of stores to buy something, don't they have anything better to do with their life?! Sad, sad people.....
