  1. Certainly looks it! would love to see some pics when you get it
  2. But you got to take it easy on those tires bro. Lmao now that brings back some memories maxman, those were the days! You got me
  3. These are awesome looking pieces I'm def warming to Breitling again!
  4. It's funny how people get so upset when they see a fake/rep of something they own! I remember many years ago having an Escort Xr3i at the time a big deal for a guy my age, it took me a long time to save up for it and I paid cash to get it, couple weeks of having it went by and a guy came along side me on the freeway with a 'fake' Xr3i (bodykit and badges only) how did it make me feel? Didn't bother me in the slightest, I bet he was just as proud of his car as I was mine, in fact it made me feel better because he was trying to emulate the same car that I had I'm making the comparison with cars because nanuq quite rightly gave a comparison of a car and watch, as a mechanic I can see how he would do so, the point I'm trying to make is that whether or not you wear a gen or fake watch does not mean that you are an [censored] or not, that comes from within and money or not your still an [censored]. I really don't think that Gen owners myself included are bothered whether the guy next to them is wearing a rep watch as long as they are not trying to make themselves look better to their peers or profiteer from it from someone who doesn't know any better. I came to this forum whilst searching for a great deal on a new SmP, tbh I'm bloody glad I've had the pleasure of being part of this community for the last 12-14 mths, I love lots and lots of watch designs and have probably bought the best part of 40-50 pieces since I came on here, inc a few Gens too. The rep scene is far more intricate than it seems from the outset, there is a depth to it that draws you in and this great community keeps you coming back for more! At the end of the day I am quite at ease wearing both Gen and rep pieces when I go anywhere, next time I'm out wearing my TC Sub and a guy stands next to me at the bar with his Gen and checks my wrist I'll give a wry smile and remember that day on the freeway..........
  5. Looks bloody good S is the crystal the same part no as the sub ?
  6. Loving the troopers Asci it's been an SmP kinda day today
  7. Outstanding collection M just shows how dangerous reading on this forum is
  8. 'My question is: Does the TC tube equipped with the necessary seal/gasket to make waterproof? ' I would think so, its gen construction so should be with the seals intact, I'm sure one of the experts can probably chime in on this but with a clarks tube and Gen crown it felt smooth and wound on tightly
  9. +1 for J he's a great guy and is always fair with peeps Do you really need to change the tube though inertia? The crown will be a straight swap and hopefully a pretty easy one, I've got mine sitting in the box looking at me waiting to get the balls to fit it atm! Last time I tried to fit a Gen crown I cocked up the keyless........4 tries and subsequent failure later.....its with J being fixed (not a Tc sub though)
  10. Both of these pieces are obviously crap quality and you would be called out immediately by everyone who even glanced at your wrist, please save yourself the pain and send them directly to me I promise never to wear them but bury them in a deep hole in my garden.........honest! Gorgeous bloody gorgeous pieces mystere Enjoy them and thanks for sharing!
  11. 'and for no reason at all, some bouncing' Could watch that run all day........
  12. Very Nice R 702 makes a lot of difference! Tissot Prs516
  13. Bloody awesome pick up D that's in fantastic condition been bitten by the Tudor bug of late too, like the guys have already said one Tudor is never enough
  14. True Classic if ever there was one absolutely jealous as hell Chief thanks for sharing!
  15. +100 on the Seiko any diver model is really great value and will give him years of wear with no worries
  16. Great looking Classic piece, this is one I keep meaning to add to the box but I always find something else gets in there first! Enjoy wearing it !
  17. Keep an eye on the sales section next couple days
  18. How jealous am I yeah pretty much! Looks an awesome pick up, wear it well !
  19. It's a funny thing I'm wondering the same at the moment, trouble is if I sell it I know I'll regret it straight away!
