  1. Sounds like welcome back is in order. I took a quick look at your Aquanaut. It looks really good. Certainly sounds like you are hooked so I hoped we will continue to see you around. Keep posting those pics. :thumbsupsmileyanim:

    Thanks for the warm welcome - and yes I will continue to post pictures - have 4 more watches coming :thumbsupsmileyanim:

    Cheers

  2. I just received a PP Aquanaut Jumbo V2 from Joshua - Overall I am very impressed with the watch, unfortunately there are 2 little nicks in the bezel from pressing in the crystal - at least that's what I assume.

    The movement seems to be a Sellita SW200 and not as advertised an ETA 2824 - not that it matters since the Sellita is a Swiss Movement and a clone of the 2824 :-)

    Here are some quick pictures that I just took - sorry forgot to remove the movement sticker on the back ;-)

  3. Along with the Patek Aquanaut that I received today I also got a Franck Muller Conquistador Black Cortez.

    The quality of this watch in particular the DLC coating is outstanding.

    The one drawback and tell tale sign that it is a replica is the lack of attention of the folks in China that put those watches together - There is some sort of glue residue and a speck of glue or something else under the crystal as well as a slightly misaligned chronograph minute hand - I didn't try to capture the residue...it is annoying enough :-)

    Down the road I have to send this one to one of our resident watch modders to see if the crystal and chrono minute hand can be fixed...any suggestion as to who could fix this for me in the US would be welcomed!

    No more talk - just on to the pictures:

    And finally the wrist shots - this watch is a real beast, but quite comfortable

  4. Hi folks,

    I have been collection reps until for a couple of years until I took a break in 2006 - I am back now and wanted to congratulate RWG of still being around and still being a place with great info and a cool crowd.

    Anyway - I will be posting my 2 new acquisitions in the appropriate areas shortly and look forward to contributing again :-)

    cheers

    WR
