  1. The GMT2C does not have a Glidelock clasp... it has what's called the Easylink comfort extension.

    This link shows how it works:

    It's for the Milgauss but is same as the GMT

    Cheers

  2. I was in the same boat as you last month... the GMT IIC was always my 'go to' watch - I'd wear it nearly every day despite two full boxes!

    I eventually bit the bullet and bought the gen a few weeks ago - it's beautiful! The bezel colouring is fantastic compared to rep.

    If you want one and like me don't want to tie up the cash in these volatile times then if you ask nicely at Watches of Switzerland they'll give you 3 years 0% finance.

    Cheers and Merry Christmas!

  3. I've not been in there for a while - always wearing a rep when I'm walking past :-) Will have to don my Steinhart tomorrow and pop in!

    They've been caught now, looks like they've been very busy boys! Argus link

    I bought this one from Surrey.

    With regards to the local incident it's sickening isn't it! They have a security guy outside the door now, quite a friendly chap. Have you been inside recently, they have changed the layout of it, it's really nice in there now.

    hello, i dont know if im posting to the correct subforum of RWG but i have 2 problems with PAM 111 & PAM 233 in which the screws dont screw down anymore. maybe due to many strap exhanges & worng sxrewdrivers.....

    Do i have any solution to ''correct'' the screw problems ??? Any alternatives ???

    Thanks in Advance & i wish you a Nice New Year !!!

  5. Having grown a little weary of the unpredictable QC of reps recently and given that the pound to dollar rate makes it difficult to gamble I've decided to order one of these:

    It's a Yokoboys modded Seiko SXK007.

    I think very nice!

    What do you guys think?

  6. Completely agree with you TomH - all purchases on hold for a while!

    I work for a Tier 1 IT manufacturer and as we buy in components etc in USD but sell in GBP for the first time ever prices are going up after decades of an average year on year 10% price drop. Customers can't believe it!

    Many predict GBP:USD will hit 1.0:1.4 once Obama is in office which will play havoc with my sales and buying anything in USD!!

  7. Hi people

    Jakub returned my watch today!!

    It's not been fixed - the crystal was chipped when he returned to me previously but this proves he's still alive and must be trying to make amends somehow...

    Guys, keep your hopes up, looks like this will take time but hopefully you'll get yours too.
