I miss the weekend wrist check....I always looked forward to looking at everyones beauts., now that im at home on vacation I want to show off mine as well:)

Nice sub ubiquitous!

heres my new pam carbon fiber dial from Jos and carbon fiber strap from ebay

Very, very nice. The presentation box is a nice touch.

I am curious about the pricing also. I've talked to Sean a few times about some of his watches and I've found his pricing to be somewhat high, enough so that I've never bought from him.

Seans prices pretty much the same as the prices on dealers websites...I can say this though...Sean has never sent me a defective watch, all the watches that i recieved from him have been top notch on quality and in perfect working order.

He is also top notch before, during, and after the sale, so for me he has been awesome

where did you get ur case?? im lookin for one just like it

Pete

If your refering to the boxset...i got it off of ebay

Ive always like that watch, I love Coke too.

Have a Coke and a Smile

Hi Kdo,

Is this the one you got? http://www.cqout.com/item.asp?id=1850272...came with box and papers or you had to pay extra for it? very nice...

She says she does not stock 2893's...glad you got one...But I think she is a bit pricey considering she sells the same products we get from our dealers...check the 'new explorer II', I got the same from PT for a lot less and shipped in 3 days to the US.

Enjoy your watch

Alex

This is the one i got from her 2 yrs ago..i paid 400.00 then, and yes she is alittle higher than most dealers here, but that was before i found out about these kick ass forums

its the only watch i bought from her, maybe we could ask her if she'd be interested in becoming a dealer here. I was impressed with her customer service

and no, all of my boxsets were sourced thru members on ebay...

None of the above. They get sent to his house in the US and he opens them when he gets home, at a guess ...

Good Guess

yep i have been in iraq since dec 05 and started ordering in jan 06. im on midtour leave now so i am enjoying all of the new and old timepieces

My thanks to everyone for making this forum so great!

Glad you liked 'em. This is what I did, no rocket science here.

Load Photoshop and the picture

1 .Click "Image -> Adjust -> Auto Levels"

2. Click "Image -> Image Size -> (insert preferable value here)

3. Click "Filter -> Sharpen -> Unsharp mask (value 0.2) -> OK (I use this, it's not necessary but it gives me good results)

3. Overwrite

Easy as that. The white balance in your camera is off... when you shoot in the bathroom or any other place with fluorescent light just choose that option from your camera. "Auto Levels" in Photoshop fixes the white balance quite well though (in most cases).

Good luck practicing.

Thanks By-Tor, im going to try it later today...

This is Lisa

And yes it is an eta 2893-2, i paid her extra to get this mov't. she said she ships them to the japanese market often, but that was 2 yrs ago...

p.s. i popped off the caseback when i first got it just to be sure...it has the unadjusted mov't.

Nice big pics! Why did you leave the bezelprotector on?

Thanks, sorry there so big...still trying to figure out how to get them right for everyone to enjoy...and no real reason why i left the bezel protector on...guess im a little embarrased about the color of it...i have a nice one that i ordered from ofrei. i just need to put it on, but it looks alot better than the one on it now.

Great watch indeed. But the presentation of your pics sucked. And the white balance and contrast levels were off...and they need to be resized to max 800x something to get them properly viewable.

I wanted to see this beauty properly (I'm sure others too) so I fixed the shots (somewhat). Took me 2 minutes. Hope you don't mind.

Damn-it By-Tor...

Those pics look friggin good man! pm me on how you do that plz...im using a canon powershot s400 4.0 mega pixal...i want to be able to make all of my pics turn out like what you did with them

ETA 2836-2

ETA 2893-2

modified 2836-2 mov't from sean w/display back

Watch came from el when he did the group buy on the eta 2893-2 mov't. Box and bands came from ebay...

I love it eddie "U DA MAN ELVIS "

Thanks!

More pics to come in the next few days

A pic of watches and stuff from ebay that I have ordered since Dec of 2005 (Deployed to iraq)

CHRISTMAS IN JULY!!!

Please see my other topic for wathes I am offering for sell to members here

Its too bad that sorting centers are being closed, and others are being forced to be much more strict on package inspections.

It is even worse that the avarage persona here take for granite how difficult and risky it is just for our dealers here to do business.

And thirdly, I just want to say that I appreciate everything that the dealers here have done for me and everyone else.

It is also dissapointing to see that it is becoming more difficult to get watches out of the country, and I hope that our dealers will do everything they can to continue to keep the prices reasonable.

I love my collection, and will continue to for a long time to come.

I will be home for a short vacation from my deployment in a few more days. I will have a LOT of pics for the forum then. I am excited to get home not just for the watches, but for my better half too

check here too

I'll sell you my "powermax" for 1 millllllliiiiiiiooooooooonnnnn dollars!!!

muuuuaaaaahhh...muuuuuuuuuaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh...

will you tell him its a rep?

if he thinks its genuine, he could get very embarrased to the wrong person...

I pulled the trigger on the 4th gen orange po for 159.00 total on moneybookers was 171 and some chg...

I had to do it, i wanted one and it looked too nice on his website

WOW...to be honest...i think the rep on the right looks better

hmm...

I emailed eddie and asked him if he carried this one a few days ago. He said yes, but to wait for one with a solid caseback.

However, this genuine omega model does come with a display back...

I ordered one from Sean , whom ive bought from in the past. Hes a solid, honest dealer and a great person.

you can also source replacement parts on ofrei...i had to order some parts for my breitling clasp too...fixed it and alls good now.
