horace derwent replied to dbane883's topic in General Discussion
Well, undoubtely the 5S was more beautiful. Moreover, both (the 5S and the 6/6+) have 1 Gbyte of RAM. Both has a 8 Mpixel camera (albeit slightly upgraded on the 6/6+). And the performance gap between the A7 and the A8 chips is non-existant as shown in this graph -
Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Homages and Replicas

Yes, i would prefer a vintage version...which maker can realize an engraved rotor/magnetic plate as the photos i posted? Apologies for the brevity and any typos - sent with Tapatalk -

horace derwent replied to dbane883's topic in General Discussion
Not only, but it's not 'groundbreaking ' anymore. 1gbytes of RAM, and basically it's a 'more of the same'. Cook is not on par with Jobs, this is clear now. And, all the smartphone/tablet market is much more 'mature' now if you compare it to the market of 2-3 years ago. Maybe iOS could have a slight advantage , it can represent a small plus.., but nothing can justify that price tag. It's not a premium device anymore.

I don't think Rolex/Omega/AP have anything to worry about...
horace derwent replied to dbane883's topic in General Discussion
It's strange that Jony Ive was - in my teenage years - a guy that i respected so much, in particular for the first iMac (the 1998 one, that i still expose in my house) or the first iPod or the first iBook. Well....i see nowadays a man that it's bragging about his (no so good anymore) creations really too much. Too much. Money can riun people, apparently. -
@Gentle: ROTFL !!!! :clap2:

Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Homages and Replicas
horace derwent replied to calatrava's topic in Other Brands Area
Sorry if i reup this old thread, but i don't wanna create a duplicate. So, i'm in love with Blancpain timepieces and FF in particular....which are the differences between these rep makers ? I'm tempted by the Davidsen's FF; it has Asian movement and Plexi glass (so it can crack)....what other 'makers (Helson and Drudi) offers? If i'm not wrong, the 'correct' FF would be like these 2 photos that i attach, especially the engraving The dust proof cover was also custom engraved with 'In case of opening the watertightness of this watch must be re-checked by and official BLANCPAIN Fifty Fathoms dealer patent pending', and of course the rotor engraving, like in other photo...which maker would have such a 1:1 rep ? -
Ciao Gentle ! Anyway,regarding smartwatches, i personally think that branda like Omega or TAG will ne seriously affected from this smartwatches invasion. Who (General public, not geeks like us ) is gonna spend >1000 EUR for a Planet Ocean or an Acquaracer when with 500 EUR you van nave the 21st century smartwatch that is the iWatch ?

This is the main reason from which i HATE Paypal. Paypal IMHO promote and ecnourage the so-called reverse scamming....it happened to me before on eBay: i sent the goodies after the highest bidder won the auction...and then this buyer claims that someone entered in his account without his knowdledge :bangin: And so, a couple of times this happened (in 15 years of eBay) ...and so basically the 'buyer' ( or the SCAMMER) took his goodies for free. So, whenever possible....let's use the Bank Transfer. Just my 0.02 cents.

@Droptopman: RESPECT I was one time passenger in a friend of mine RS4 (the first one, the B5 -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audi_RS_4#B5_.28Typ_8D.2C_2000.E2.80.932001.29)...and it was NOT a car, it was a Rocket !
