  1. Hi

     

    Im about to purchase the Rolex - Ceramic Daytona 116500 Watch. I want the version with working chronograph movement (A7750). Which one should I get? Noob or JF? I think Noob was recently released. I've heard BP version isn't that good, but the BP bracelet is better? Links provided below. I want both white and black dial:

  2. The only Crazy Hours project I have moved on, so far, is the one for my Daughter's birthday at the beginning of this year.   It came out great; standard FM Crazy watch + gen dial + custom croco strap by Inspire Workshop + TheZigmeister final assembly of all the parts. The gen dial has lume, but it is a bit damaged. I did not have Zig repair the lume (except re-lume the rep hands), since my Daughter is only 14. Have to watch that final cost!!
    Please post pictures when you get time :) the gen dial does make a huge difference to the watch. Im looking to do this same mod on the 5850 curvex model. Ive got a gen dial, but the lume is all damaged on it, so will have to get it relumed. Its fun doing these projects :)
  3. This is the FM with the jumping hours comlication? If so does it work? I love the style of the case.
    Yes :) this FM has jumping hours complication (same as the gen). Every hour when the minute hand reaches 60 minutes (number 8 on the wach), the hour hand automatically jumps to the correct hour number on the dial :) so in the last photo, the time is 11:45. The watch looks stunning in real life. The gen dial has that shiny vibrant surface to it and the gen lume looks beautiful at night.
  4. The only franck muller watches that i like are the crazy hour and the tourbillon. In the crazy hours i love both the long island and the curvex. The long island version always caught my eye and i always wanted to franken the watch. When i saw some gen dials listed on ebay, i immediately pounced on them :) and then brought a gen crocodile strap to go with the watch. The watch was sent to SMIDSY for a dial replacement. The gen dial was pretty beat, but smidsy did an excellent job at cleaning it up and the watch now looks like its actually worth about £20,000! The watch keeps excellent time and im very happy with it :) Here are some quick photos of the watch:

  5. Sorry to bump up this thread, but the dials that threegoldbenders (sorry i meant BROTHERS) sell are all brought from toumii. I know this because i bidding on the same dials and each time they were outbidding me and then selling them at inflated prices. i even sold a few dials on ebay that i didnt want and threegoldbrothers brought them. Jkay hows the crazy hours project going?

  6. Armani Code - it has to be one of the best fragrances that you can buy and women really seem to like it. Out of the 50 odd bottles that i have, armani code is the only one that women seem to notice and give compliments on. Anyone else tried it? If not, next time your in the department store, make sure you try it out.

  7. I'll give Ken a chance, I purchased 4 bags from Fabaaa and I feel very disappointed with 2 of them (hardware did not match the original and very bad mothball smell).

    Please post pictures, so we can educate ourselves on what to buy in the future. I was tempted to purchase from joy but then chose ken. I wasnt disappointed :) i'll post picks of my luggage bag soon.

  8. Another warning for fabaaa, keep away, i bought 3 highend bags from her, $400 celine, LV monogramm, and a LV for myself. Sent everything back... Very cheap quality, cheap smell, shoulder straps dont fit etc... Hopefully getting a refund. I got a few very decent items from joy at fabaaa but she i screwing up her reputation lately. Nono...

    Fangfang is my top dealer for accessories and small items.

    Havent tried ken yet, next on list.

    Fangfang and sally both have great damier canvas goods. I brought a damier pegase 45 rolling luggage from ken. I didnt expect the quality to be very great. When it turned up, i was blown away with the quality. I took it on my recent trip to london and it looked great :) will definately be buying more luggage pieces from him in future. Prices are a little high compared to ioffer and other sellers, but you dont get conned into being sent something cheap or something that looks different from the photos. Avoid ioffer. To many scumbags on that site and items are generally of poor quality.

  9. Ive owned over 10 rep montblanc pens and over 20 gen montblanc pens. Listen to what the other members are saying. Buy a gen. I suggest you go one of the pen shows in your country. That way you have a feel of the gen and also get great bargains aswell. The reps, even great 1:1 are poorly make. I brought my first montblanc reps from narikaa. I brought 5 pens and im not even lying, in a matter of 2 or 3 weeks of using them, the pens fell apart. The plating came off, the glue that held the parts gave up and the paint slowly chipped off. I brought some grade 1:1 versions and the one pen that i have been using constantly for the past 5 months, the pen fell apart and the metal fittings have all worn off! The gens i have, still look brand new even after constant use. Ive wasted over £200 on rep pens. Could have used that money to buy a gen montblanc.

  10. Kind of conflicting message you have there mate. Are you the same Mosh? :whistling:

    Yes its the same mosh. I meant to say that the height of the tx crystal is the same height as the gen. It looked great on my black magic watch. I wasnt referring to the AR of the crystal. When i asked about the AR coating of the tx crystal, i meant to say between the 2 batches, was their any noticeable difference. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Anyway here is a pic of my recently sold black magic watch:

  11. Some people are saying that the factory has stopped doing the lumed version of the watch now. It only comes in none lumed versions now. May i ask, how much it would cost to get the numbers lumed? Lucky yours has the correct caseback. 1200ch long island is the correct caseback. 1800ch long island is the incorrect caseback.
