forgot to note,, Our Declaration of Independence notes the "Pursuit of Happiness" bit... but it is not a constitutional right.. so dont use that as a defense.

I would ask for their data sheets so we can finally have some accurate reps! Or... better yet... do as Navigater does and say... "you have not seen a replica until you've seen the on on _____ forum.. and then give them someone else's picture!" Maybe they will ignore you and go after him? sorry to make funny,, receiving letter like that is not funny at all... but everyone who says that is a scam is not listening to by-tor and others who pointed out that this does happen to members from time to time. Deny everything,, they dont want to spend the resources to try and prove it was you.. Rolex would only go after monetary damages (that is why they ask for a little coin from you). A quick asset investigation shows you dont have much... why throw good money after bad??

Looking at doing a GTG sometime in the next 1-2 months around the Troy area. We will probably have 6-8 from RWI like we did last time but it would be nice to add some others from RWG. If you are interested, please post here in this thread. We have been meeting at P.F. Changs in Troy. We have also met at Champs Americana (also in Troy). We had a record turn out last time with about 15 people including 4 forum noobs and 7 GTG noobs. We had one hell of a good time! We like Troy because we usually hit the Tourneau store at the local mall. I have not narrowed in on a date yet but figured we might as well start planning. If you have any questions, feel free to post or pm me.

With the increase in fuel prices I have was finally held accountable for my non caring attitude towards a fuel that WILL run out at some point. I was also forced to educate myself on alternative fuels which have many many problems that go undiscussed because it is not the popular thing to do. E85, ethanol ,, made from corn,, does not get better gas mileage, has driven the cost of corn higher, has decreased the exported amount of this staple food to many in improvised areas of the world that need this food. Ohh... and it is several times worse for the environment than the fossil fuel that we burn in regular cars. You are better off buying a used car than purchasing a new hybrid. It will save the environment more because the environmental damage of MAKING the car has already been paid for when purchasing the used vehicle. Fuel cell is another topic.. and the list goes on. As far as fuel costs,,, No new refineries in the US in a long time, oil drilling, we will pay large prices until all gone,, hope we can strap a saddle on the polar bear and drive it around. Arctic wildlife refuge, because our Oceans and Sprawling hills and meadows are not a refuge. We also have on guy running for president that is making a campaign slogan about high fuel costs, yet his party has had control of the house and senate for several years now and has done absolutely nothing with the power.. lol.. Most of the time the truth is found on page 147 on cnn.com (not the front page) I just traded both of my vehicles in this week, I got rid of 2 V-8 vehicles (Z-71 Silverado and Impala SS) to get a new Z71 with active fuel management which cuts the cylinders in 1/2 when at cruising speeds. Also bought a v6 G6. Still spoiled but using less fuel than before. I do not cry about fuel costs because I know what our Canadian and EU friends pay for theirs. The bad thing is that the US has abandoned the RailRoad as a mass transit option. We did have a decent infrastructure but rail was pulled up because it was deemed unsafe (through media and local government brainwashing) The East coast of the US is better than the Midwest and the West coast with rail infrastructure. This is a classic example of American leaders not thinking ahead like we should except for when it is a hot button issue (the environment) that will help win elections.

Just wait.... soon we will see the suckers born today.

Not a Rolex guru,expert, fan... although I like the new ceramic. I hear that the correct stack model does not have a good movement in them. It has the same old hack problems as before. The movement in the incorrect stack model will work better.

PM admin, this could be a simple mistake.

@ admin, keep throw it on a cheap server, keep your database operational so your search engine links dont get broken and throw forwards on the link backs to RWG so you can generate more traffic. My $0.02 but you may already have another plan. Indeed, some things you wish could last forever. I am not good at artwork and creating logos, but I would love if someone would commission a nice little logo for our signatures for those who were a part of it's history and many of us that called it home at one time. If we could just get one made.. we could all copy and enjoy it in our signatures Thanks for the great times TRC!

That is what I thought at first, but those were classics and quite entertaining. If this guy isnt a punk teenager getting his kicks off pimping his fake, then he sure as hell is acting like it. WTF?? Really, WTF?? I cant help but think the "Black Guy" "Janitor" and other remarks are not racially motivated. Lose your login here or any of the other fora in our community, you simply do not belong.. grow up a little, get some humility and try again later.

FYI, If you buy this fantasy above, you should know that you are getting a smaller model than the ones Shundi , By-Tor and I own. Look at the pushers, those pushers are found on the 42mm model not on the 44mm. I bet you will be sorry you wasted the money on something like this.

If you cannot find it I would suggest the 7750 data that Offshore has for sale (if he is still selling it). You should give him a pm on it.

Picture from a couple weeks ago... sorry..

Yep, the Diplomat. It looks pretty cool. Wife will be with me, NO KIDS! wee!!! lol Currently 3 weeks removed from a 1 week ""vacation"" with a 5 & 7 year old at Disney... OMG!!! Yes... they call it a "Vacation" lol.. I had to take a business trip to recover from my ""vacation"" Sounds like a plan, it would be a pleasure to meet up.

I will be in Hollywood FL for a convention from July 23rd through Saturday. It would be cool if you guys had a Get Together right about that time... so I could get out of some business and go have some fun! Please????? :)

I cant believe this [censored]. again... What part of doing this dont people understand. Will there be people who hop between Gen and Rep forums.... YES .. all the time.. and we cannot help that... but to draw attention like this is insane! Someone posted Patricks photobucket link... it is obviously him if that was the photo and link used... hello...??? If someone has not already banned him on RWI.. he'll be banned immediately. We do not want members on any board who do irresponsible things like that!

Nanuq, She seems like a natural. People who enjoy taking photos like this are those who pay close attention to detail,, and take enjoyment out of the less obvious. She has a real knack for what makes for a nice photo. Now send her outdoors with some watches!! lol..

How about a nice picture of your watch and it's new bezel?

doctorron is a class act! He's a nice guy and will vouch for him on trades and sales. He's an asset to any board.

Guys, let's calm down here.. No reason for over reactions on either side. AJoe, I took your post wrong with the way you wrote it. It appeared to me that you were totally writing off RWG and you offer no more support. If I were staff here,, I would have taken this very bad. It is possible that TT did too. That is why I asked for clarification (which I appreciate your indulgence). No reason for anyone to get into a verbal slug fest. I see a lot of friends here, this could clearly be a misunderstanding.

I'm not going to comment on the rest of your post... but this part.. Why would you only stay until your vip membership is completed, then, you're not going to dip into your pocket to keep the forum going. Seem's like a strong move on your part over the Donation thread. Maybe I've misunderstood something, but this is how I read your posts. Why pick up the marbles and go home like that? My comments are not referencing the pm to you from TT,, but your quote above.

Hat's off to your wife,, and congratulations to you! Are these your first children? You will really need to be there for her. Get rest while you can... help her get rest... lack of rest is where most of the stress comes from. Really happy for you.

I dont know about nerve damage but I sure as hell have a nice "Pannie Line" on the top of my hand from the crown guard on my 111H.

let me know what he quotes you for a black rubber strap, cuz I've never worn mine other than to try it on, see what I thought.. etc.... never outside. I'll sell you mine if you want.

Yeah,, ok... those are fighting words! I'll try to get a wrist shot with it. I've been to several parties at restaurants that the players own here in Michigan. yeah.... I've touched it! lol
