  1. Nice. All you need now is a SeaDweller.
  2. Very cool. And hooray for correctly sized pictures!
  3. It appears that way because it's shot wide-angle, macro, and with a flash.
  4. Other than the fact that it's plated and wears off rather quickly. Try here: http://www.solid925silver.com/ From personal experience, she won't be let down.
  5. Wait till you see some up*cough*coming AP & Hublot reviews...
  6. Well, if you're actually going to wear matching watches...
  7. AP--hands down. And a hell of a lot better looking watch.
  8. Man, I keep seeing these.. I'm dying for mine to come soon...
  9. No, there's not. Even the gen stuff on eBay barely goes a few bucks below list price once the auction has ended. It's Tiffany's--it's all in the name--like Rolex, their resale value is going to be almost 100%.
  10. I thought this was a religion for most; doesn't that always involve money?...
  11. Not that I can see--taking pics tonight--got so f*cking busy this weekend I'm actually glad to be back at work...
  12. It is supposed to be substantially darker than the steel. Here's the gen for comparison:
  13. So far, from the pics everything looks ok before shipping--we'll see...
  14. 1) DSSD 2) Pre-cut, trimmed @ home 3) Noble Fur 4) 9 ft. 5) Florida, US 6) $115 Only the presents that have shipped are wrapped & under the tree. Hopefully the rest will be here before Christmas....
  15. I just got mine. The pearl is so close to gen--it's awesome. Dial is great too--better print, and correct marker thickness. Posting review shortly...
  16. Not necessarily, but 95% of the time you're generally loosing the aesthetic accuracy of the watch (sub-dial placement, etc.). You're also loosing the appreciation for the craftsmanship it takes to build, regulate and maintain an automatic timepiece. If you just want a "somewhat close" look to a genuine, then you're normally going to blow it with most quartz movements, with anyone who knows anything about the gens (seeing as they do pay attention to sub-dial placements, etc.). With concerns of low maintenance and low cost, your approach sounds like it's more towards the practical than it is toward the aesthetic; the way I see it is if you want the practicality without the embarrassment of being spotted with a more-than-obvious fake, a cheap genuine would suit you better (quartz Seiko, Casio, Citizen, etc.). If you want an almost unspottable watch--even to most supposed "experts"--you're going to have to go for an automatic. And quite frankly, with proper maintenance, a good automatic will outlive a quartz any day of the week.
  17. If you're talking about the lumed hour markers at 3,6, & 9, can't they be pushed out from the back of the dial? I thought all metal based markers were fitted to the dial with small feet. Surely they can be pushed out & repositioned if necessary...
  18. White. It's more feminine, classic and will coordinate with more outfits.
  19. Damn it...now I'm on pins & needles over here....
