  1. Hi M, great looking watch.... should you decide against this combo, let me know and I'll hep you to get rid of it...
  2. Here you go... I also tried the shirt test and have to say no, the ROO does not fit comfortably under the cuff. My wrist is 7.9" and my shirtsize is 16.5". As the CC is visibly higher, that one is out of the question.
  3. This is just great... There's a Germany saying.... "A man a word, a woman a dictionary..."
  4. There is another, more important reason to choose the ROO over the Oris at the moment: the Tube and Crown of the Oris are utter crap, designed to break in no time. I'm a careful guy and I collect watches for a looong time. Even with careful use, mine lasted three weeks and so right now, it's a 300$ paperweight. I'm waiting for replacement parts. The datewheel issue has been discussed too. The watch itself is beautiful... The ROO has no such problem (if you make sure the rubber covers of the pushers are glued on...;-)
  5. I believe that every ROO owner (including me) has lost one of these at one time... You could make a good business
  6. Yes. Aside from his PAM past ( ), he
  7. Those things look like straight out of Saw III.... if you can't get them off your wrist, they're probably designed to trigger some wicked killing machine....
  8. Like Dani said, it was a no-brainer that within minutes of this threat, every single member who had ever bought a watch from the cartel and got it delivered without problems would come to their defense. And I especially love it when members with less than 50 posts and less than six months on their membership come telling us what this forum is all about. I have bought from Andrew too, got my merchandise and had a pleasant shopping experience. So far so good. But you people need to understand that this is illegal merchandise we're dealing with and because of that, no one is going to help you in case of trouble but the likes of RWG, RWI etc. The forums are your last and only line of defense, making sure that you are not being completely ripped off. A lot of you have come here after paying a fortune for some "Super, Swiss grade AAA+" sub that was a real POS. Here, members help other members and the admin helps the members and we all help one another not go get ripped off. That includes to take action - even against dealers - if they break the rules (of what is decent business behavior). In the rep world, no government antitrust agency is going to come to the rescue. The only way to say "No, we don't want this!" with some chance for success is the combined force of the members of the rep forums. Since the Darkside was even linked to on the cartel websites, I am sure that admin over there did not shoot from the hip in this issue. They thought long and hard before taking this step but the rep forum where not created by dealers as a sales platform but by rep and watch enthusiasts in a effort to share knowledge and provide guidance in an illegal environment.
  9. Truly a beautiful piece.... wear it well!
  10. Very nice pictures, well worth the effort. Thanks for sharing.
  11. Thank you for investing time and effort into this T. If they turn out well (which - knowing you - they will), I'll be ordering.
  12. Hi Lani, I can feel your pain... just a little info to make you feel a loooot better: Where I live, we're now paying close to 10$ for the Gallon super.... Howzzzat?
  13. It's right up there with the Clownmaster.... FUGLY - I wouldn't wear this if they paid me for it....
  14. The longer you stay around.... the better you will understand. The biggest lie about reps is the "ultimate", "1:1", "perfect Rep" bull. It does not exist. Not on the noob and not on 700$+ MBW's. Period.
  15. Very sad to hear this. TRC was the very first Rep Forum I joined. RIP
  16. SD as allways setting the standards for watch reviews.... thanks. My 196 was my second ever PAM rep.... back in the ol' days...
